Re: blood oozing out of chicken (tmi)
This is what Mary from about.com had to say about it.
Bone marrow, sucked or spooned from the center of a bone, is rich in healthy fats, protein and iron - but chicken bones don’t have much marrow. Chicken bones simmered in soup, increase the calcium content of acidic broths, such as when tomato or vinegar is an ingredient. Bones also release gelatin, a protein, into the broth. But never swallow the chicken bone itself because chicken bones can perforate the bowel and that requires surgery. I have not see calorie information about chicken bones.
