Residents of, and visitors to, the Gloucestershire town of Stroud can partake of one of Local butcher, Ben Hamm's, famous partially cooked chickens today. Each bird is carefully seasoned using a secret blend of herbs and spices and then cooked for little more than a quarter of the recommended time. Ben disputes the claim that declining participation is down to the large number of food poisoning cases that have resulted in previous years, saying that people should just "grow a bit of backbone" and stop their bloody moaning. After all, he said, no-one moans about rare beef, and chickens are little more than small, beaked, cows with wings.
