Deliveroo reports 5000 PERCENT increase in searches for a chicken feet after MasterChef challenge 

Chicken feet were on the menu during Wednesday night’s episode of Back To Win.

And although the item was not a popular choice on social media, it seems many curious customers are keen to try the dish for themselves. 

According to Ten Daily, food delivery service Deliveroo reported a 5,272 percent increase in searches for chicken feet on their app since the episode aired. 

Those keen to try the culinary delight can do so – the app has over 140 dishes that match the search for ‘chicken feet’. 

The interest began after chicken feet were included in a mystery box challenge on Wednesday.  

Contestants were given the item as an ingredient, with many using it to make savoury dishes. 

Chef Ben Ungermann controversially made chicken feet ice cream, setting off a storm on social media.    

Ben demonstrated just why he is nicknamed the ‘Ice Cream King’ and used the peculiar item to make chicken fat caramel to serve alongside his frozen dessert.   

Ben served the dish beautifully by spreading the chicken fat caramel and adding ice cream, biscuit and cherries on top – before pouring some extra caramel on the side for good measure. 

Despite being nervous, the judges showed him he had nothing to worry about as they completely raved about the dish. 

Simon Toohey attempted to make a chicken feet jelly but when it would not set in time for the deadline, he decided to make a chicken feet mousse.  He made a steamed taro dish with chicken feet moose on the side. 

Although the judges were not big fans of the taro, they praised the mousse for being full of flavour.
