Sheer Stupidity or Feigned Ignorance??

Saw the label on the package?It reads P.(pig)BIG BONES,instead of soup bones which is what I indicated on my shopping list.The meat on soup bones is softer than pork ribs,making it ideal for soup and the meat falls off easily.Gave my list to my lao gong who went grocery shopping with his mum tagging along,which proved the saying"Mothers know best" so wrong.This was a case of the blind leading the blind.My poor lao gong,who did not have the foggiest idea of what soup bones is,listened to his mum and purchased this bones .Hmm...to feed the dog,perhaps?If chicken feet and chicken drumstick are the same,then why does chicken drumstick cost more?Oh well,came back with this and the usual excuse"I don't know what is that,we never eat this things before" Good grief......and all the while I thought a phone call will make a difference...Sigh...
