They're dog treats

You give them to your dog to chew on.

Don’t people buy them for their dogs to chew?

Dogs eat them.

They're for dogs.

I don't buy them for my dogs anyMore as they throw them in the air. One got caught in my hair last time and they smell horrible

They are a fairly popular tapa in Spain, though I guess the ones you saw advertised were for dogs

The description of the product in your link couldnt be clearer it is a dog treat 🙄

@limitededitionbarbie 😱🤢😆

They are for dogs obviously - although my weirdo won't eat them. Think they are too much effort. Apparently they aren't great for them anyway - too much oil/fat!

From your link:

"Our pigs ears are the largest and thickest available and are a delicious treat that your dog will love!"

So, they're for dogs.

They're ready to eat as they are. Smell rank but my old boy loved them.

As if you didn't know they are for dogs!! 🙈

I don’t eat them no, my dog does. I

They're really nice oven baked and coated with mustard - just like crackling :)

It quite clearly says when you click the link that they are for dogs.

They are for dogs. Literally in the description.

A tasty snack! Yummy!

Oh I opened this thinking it might be some philosophical question about why pig's ears are considered to be so intrinsically bad. As in "Well you've made a right pig's ear of that."

Are pig's ears so much worse than other animal's ears?

And is this in any way related to not being able to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Or is that a euphemism!

Oh Crikey, I didn't realise they were for dogs.

I bought a box for where I work so I could hand them round when necessary and say "Well you've made a right pig's ear of that, so here's another one!

(I work in the Cabinet Office, and I was about to order another three boxes!)

Nigella def did a pig’s ear dish in one of her TV series.

I tried pigs ear salad in Portugal once. It was a bit chewy and I wouldn't have it again.

In Spain they cook them til they're very soft - but they still have a line of cartilege going through the middle.
DH's late mum used to eat them as a treat, her family was very poor and she got used to them when she was growing up in Ireland.
Mind you, my Dad, a Londoner, used to eat sheep's feet (or was it sheep's head) as a child. Or so he claimed.

I had no idea they were for dogs. I have never owned a dog. I saw no reference to dogs when I looked briefly on the website.
