Op went to a whole lot of trouble yet got it wrong. If that part of beef is called brisket then it's common sense for the bone around that area to be called "brisket bone"

Brisket not biscuit. Nigerians are the only people who think this lool

Cinderella5:
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.

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.

There is actually something like brisket bone which is not really a bone but cartilage that connects the two sides of the chest of an animal. Is that soft white cartilage not what we call 'biscuit bone'? Brisket is the beef gotten from this part of the animal. Pls, when doing a research especially to 'correct' a trending 'error', check multiple sources not just Wikipedia.

Lol

Ishilove:

'Biscuit bone' is a Nigerian colloquialism for soft chewable bone, same as 'brisket bone'. They are both colloquialisms. They call theirs brisket, we call ours 'biscuit'.

You should research more before calling others 'half smart'.

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.

Madam Ishilove, I beg to disagree. Whoever countered that thread and came up with this must be biased or very ignorant.

What Nigerians call 'biscuit bone' is actually brisket bone. That is the cartilage that most people who couldn't afford the exclusive deboned-beef steak buy from the butchers. It's mispronounced biscuit bone which is actually biscuits shaped like bones given to pets such as dogs.

It's brisket bone dear not biscuit bone.

Ah tank u jawe
dat op just wanted 2 spoil our biscuit bone pronunciation yesterday
Infact d Op deserves dis

Seems the whole issue was generated by lib and that's how rumours get started. But technically, if we consider the brisket part of cattle which contains brittle bones, then such bones can be referred to as brisket bones. On the other hand, all other brittle bones fond in cattle and other stock but not from their brisket areas can therefore be referred to as biscuit bones. This ought to settle this dispute!

I had just created a thread on this. Didn't know Ishilove beat me to this.

It is not biscuit or brisket. Find out the real name of the bone

Ishilove woman up and admit you were wrong

Op is 'half smart' just as someone said. It is actually brisket bone. Biscuit bones refer to something else entirely. According to UrbanDictionary.com, biscuit bone is a medical condition.

That is OP in the hands of properly educated nairalanders

its brisket bone or bone cartilage(cartilaginous bone) and not biscuit bone(unless your are talking about a bone shaped biscuit).

stop misleading peeps, 'aye

Cinderella5:
she was focusing on brisket rather than brisket bone.

This op is d dumbest fellow I have ever seen. After researching a second time he's still not correct.
The first op was perfectly right about it being called brisket bone.
People like this Second OP failed correction in their secondary school.

This is another very creative way to look at it.

I wonder what the point of the whole nattering is about anyway. It's like arguing that the name of a woman's reproductive organ is not püssy, but vagina. Or like arguing that “pure water” is an incorrect term for “water in a satchet”.
So long as the semantic integrity of a word, phrase, or sentence is intact, its morphology (form) matters little.

Language is subjective - "Tyranny" could easily have been the word to describe copulation, and "democracy" could in an alternate universe be the word to describe "SlayQueens'. Once again I say, what does it matter if it's brisket bone or biscuit bone, especially when a mention of either of the two terms would elicit virtually the same mental image in the minds of everyone.

Petty, pathetic humans with their pointless, pathetic, petty preoccupations. Pfft!

Biscuit bone is mostly the Epiphysis and Metaphysis of long bones that contain thin layers of compact bones that are relatively soft and are chewable when cooked.They are the the end parts of bones of the arm, leg and ribs.

Brisket on the other hand is the part of the body just below the neck,between the two forelimbs of cow, sheep, etc.

You are very right, Don't know why people don't learn. The Op defined Brisket and refuse to look up for Brisket Bone or even Google Biscuit Bone and see. My Brother it is Brisket Bone and not Biscuit Bone.

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?

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...)

You have disgraced yourself imagine insulting everyone by calling them intellectually regressed then it turns out your findings is bereft of truth.

Mynd44, lalasticlala, seun, the op's thread is false and misleading. It's brisket bone not biscuit bone which is an illness. This thread should be taken off homepage.

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

Can you find Brisket bones elsewhere apart from the Brisket? if your answer is no....then its not Brisket bone

The first port of call should be a dictionary. It seems Nigerian youth have forgotten the dictionary, whether hard or soft copy.

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

op u didn't make any sense. u did not disprove brisket bone..
u did not prove biscuit bone..

femi4:

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