Capon is a Spanish slang term for someone who has had their penis and testicles removed

how often does that really happen to a spanish person?

My dad has a funny story. When he was a little kid, my great-grandparents raised chickens. One day one of the roosters just flew up and started flogging him. Just went to town on him. My great-grandfather got it off him and that night for supper, they had chicken and dumplings.

f*ck that rooster

So, to my knowledge, I’ve never had capon. Does it taste noticeably different from just “regular chicken”?

[96583UP]

richer and more flavorful
