Op is unteachable. While you were busy defining brisket, did you bother to look up brisket bone? Check the dictionary if there is anything like biscuit bone. You will only see biscuit made in the shape of a bone .

A brisket bone is a soft chewable bone.The image below is beef brisket bone. Nothing like biscuit bone. Op is half smart.

SeniorZato:
I just go form Don jazzy for my wife say na brisket bone not biscuit bone

Decale:


No dear. You are the one wrong

A brisket is a muscle. The bones beneath this brisket are your sternum and ribs. Now, what makes the bone soft when you cut off a brisket is the ensiform cartilage and other cartilages present around the sternum and ribs.

Every bone has its own name. In this case, sternum or ribs. What gives it the soft chew is the cartilage.

It also applies to humans. If the biceps muscle was stripped with a soft bone, it wouldn't be called biceps bone.

Both brisket bone and biscuit bone are "nicknames" for the bone beneath the muscle, Brisket.

Your post is in the first page and people reading it will get influenced with your false statements and directly attack the poster who's technically correct. It's already happened. The least you can do is to edit your post and prevent further ignorance

Cheers

femi4:
You are wrong, Brisket bones can only be found at the Brisket while the "Biscuit bones" are present in every part of the cattle

SecondEva:
the term goes with every other bone which is structured like the brisket bone, it's like cartilage.

femi4:
wrong, cartilages around ribs, chucks, legs etc are not Brisket bones

Cinderella5:
who told you that thing present in every part of cattle is biscuit bone? Pls show proof. Biscuit bone is an illness.

Caustics:

SecondEva:
people who call it biscuit bone derived the name from brisket bone. You know the way we change things from jingle over to jangilover and from standard living to sandalili

YourWife:


And so I had a cut of the bones of the leg of a cow, I mean the joint-end of the bone that is spongy with red marrow that is soft and chewable when cooked... Will I also call it Brisket bone?

In the age of the internet, it seems many humans have intellectually regressed instead of the other way around. Someone who knows the value of the internet used it properly and corrected the recent falsehood.

How are you na?

Honestly, whoever put up that article needs to be... Let me reserve my comment regarding that.
The person accusing people of not using the internet is him/herself not doing same. His article and all the definition in it is talking about Brisket (sic meat) and didn't say anything about bones.
If he/she had done a simple search of Biscuit Bone on the internet, they would have realised that biscuit bone is actually biscuits in the shape of bones specially done for dogs, save for a few Nigerian sites with pictures of beef (lol...)

ibkayee:

Not bad thanks, hope you're well

verygudbadguy:

Linda Ikeji needs to employ some hands to review/verify her posts. Imagine posting "Brisket and not Biscuit" yesterday just to wake up today to find out that it is actually biscuit and not brisket.

Very funny.. I am sure some LIB-Nairalanders would go and drag her for that post.

PrecisionFx:



Bros abeg no mind dem, pls give me that biscuit bone that looks like shortbread make I chop....

It's not even only peculiar to the Nigerian argot – It is a wideIy used phrase (@firstScreenshot). I suspect it was originally a metaphor used to refer to something or someone that is “brittle or weak”, but which over-time gained such profound currency that it shed its metaphorical element and became instead the colloquial term for the soft, crunchy cartilages in the body of a cattle – in the same manner some metaphors cease from being metaphors due to chronic over-usage.

@Cinderella5, as far I know there's nothing like brisket bone. If you are in possession of some strong evidence that would serve in controverting my claim, then by all means, present them.

Brisket is defined as the cut of MEAT from a cattle's breast or lower chest regions. It is not defined as a cut of BONE. To say the original term was "Brisket bone" would be also to fasely assert that brisket is bone removed from the breast of a cattle, rather than meat.

Even if we were to agree upon a hypothetical conclusion that the accurate terminology is actually "brisket bone", it would be foolhardy to disregard the legit semantic drift that has taken place by faulting those who use the term "biscuit bone".
Housewife today means a stay-at-home wife; in Shakespeare's time, housewife meant a courtesan or a whøre. The point is, language, like all other contraptions of nature and man, evolves.
