Gizzard for Wonders. Not a movie review — but I bet you watched it anyway! All things considered, the gizzard is pretty underrated. They are the edible organs of poultry that are often overlooked, and in this blog post, we will discuss the health benefits of eating gizzards.
What are Gizzards?
Gizzards are the second stomach of a chicken, turkey, or other bird. They are part of the digestive tract, and they break down the food before it enters the small intestine.
In addition to being a part of a bird’s digestive system, gizzards have several other uses in cooking. They can be prepared by boiling or roasting them until they’re tender and juicing their contents into a sauce or gravy.
They can also be fried in oil as a crispy snack food or simmered with other ingredients to make soups and stews.
Gizzards are often included in dishes that include offal (the internal organs of animals) because they have a similar texture to the liver—both portions of meat are soft and fatty when cooked at high temperatures.

What Do Gizzards Taste Like?
The flavour of gizzards is a bit of an acquired taste. It’s kind of like the chicken equivalent of the liver, in that while most people don’t love it at first, they can eventually be won over by its rich, earthy flavour.
Gizzards are definitely not for everyone. But if you’re up for the challenge and want to try something new, you should absolutely give them a shot.
