Why Are They Called Chicken Fingers?

I have always wondered this... why fingers? CHICKENS DONT HAVE FINGERS!
God, they should be called chicken body parts combined into a block of meat. To say the least chickens have talons... not fingers. Fingers are way more helpful than talons.. just saying. The only thing talons can do is scratch your eyeballs out. Who came up with the idea of calling it chicken fingers anyways? Well whoever it was clearly did not think things through.

Did you know that people eat chicken feet... I cant remember what the dish is called, but how tasty would that be? lol...

See those are chicken feet... see the talons? No fingers on that baby.

:)

I have a question.

1.) Have you ever questioned why they are called chicken fingers?

2.) What would you call them instead?
