Hmm... I'm just picturing my officemate's faces if I start gnawing on a chicken leg mid-afternoon. Just the thought of it makes me interested in trying it!

I've eaten chicken as a snack before now, not in an office mind. I don't think anyone would bother though - you may even start a new trend with chicken pieces in a coolbox replacing the traditional (British?) biscuit tin.
