I wonder how many of the urban chicken owners choke their chickens when they want to eat them.

I suppose it would be better than using a knife, or beating the thing to death.

You don't "choke" them to death. You put your foot on their head and twist/jerk to behead them. I've done it before as a child. I've always understood the saying, "a chicken with its head cut off" because I've seen it myself. My grandmother kept chickens for eggs and meat. I preferred the killing to the dunking in boiling water and plucking feathers. That was really smelly and hard work. We all had to do our part for the meal (which was always delicious).
