"Eat the chicken, spit out the bones." If you agree with something someone says or, more specifically, writes, but also disagree with another belief presented. The beliefs you agree with are the "chicken," and those you do not are "the bones."
"I read a great book from John Piper, but he's a Calvinist. So, I ate the chicken, spit out the bones. #etcsotb"
