What does GIBLET mean in Scrabble?
noun
One of the edible inner parts of a bird, such as the heart, liver or gizzard, often cooked for gravy or stuffing.
Giblets usually come tucked inside a whole chicken or turkey in a small paper or plastic bag. Cooks simmer them for stock, chop them into gravy or fry them as a treat, and a careless cook who forgets the bag will find it still inside the roasted bird. The word reached English from Old French, where it described a stew made of game. A single giblet is rarely mentioned, since the plural is how the word nearly always appears.

Everyday kitchen vocabulary, almost always in the plural.
