EN: Chicken feet (food)
No, not the shoes. In the Philippines, 'adidas' is the street food name for grilled or fried chicken feet. Why? Because the three main claws look like the three stripes of the Adidas logo. It's a classic 'tusok-tusok' staple, best enjoyed with a spicy vinegar dip. It's proof that Pinoys are so resourceful, even the feet don't go to waste.
Named after the "Adidas" brand, as the three claws of the chicken foot resemble the brand's three-stripe logo.
A very common slang term for a specific street food.
