Pettitoes (noun)
pet-eet-oh-s
A pig’s trotter, particularly when served as food.
As consuming pigs trotters falls out of popularity, so does the word but I love it! You can eat every part of the pig but it’s oink, didn’t you know.
Example sentences
“He served roasted pettitoes, I could hardly believe it.”
“Many pubs are now serving poor man’s food like pettitoes and calling it rustic gourmet!”
