Bone marrow is... well, an acquired taste, so to say. I think I'm one of the lucky folks who like to eat the bone marrow when given the chance, though getting quality bone like in the comic is kinda hard where I live.
Chicken bone marrow? Not so tasty, compared to pig or cow...
Note: Bone marrow is quite rich in iron, being that it's where new red blood cells are produced, thus is very good for you if you're having trouble with low blood count or anemia.

I know that's true with red marrow, but I though most of the marrow in long bones (like those in the comic) were mostly yellow marrow and, thus, mostly fat. Then again, that's based on (my rather narrow understanding of) human physiology, so using that to estimate the distribution of red/yellow marrow in the bones of other animals is definitely a mistake...
Considering the parts of the pig that people traditionally eat in my area, I'm a little surprised marrow isn't one of them.
There are part of the pig you DO NOT eat? Here in Italy I think we eat, directly or to prepare other food, pretty much everything... Well, a part of the bristles and (maybe) the eyes.

There's a joke in America; They (slaughterhouses) use every part of the pig but the oink.
