Answer #1

Breast is basically the chest of the chicken. Don’t act like an idiot, because you KNOW chickens don’t have actual breasts.. This question is pointless and quite idiotic.

:P

Answer #2

However, in Victorian times it was considered too risqué to ask for chicken thighs or breasts. That is when they started to refer to the breast/wing portion of the chicken as white meat and the thiegh/leg portion as dark meat. That way they could offer guests white meat or dark meat without having to say any naughty words.

Remember those repressed Victorians put skirts on grand pianos and covered crotches on trees since piano legs and tree crotches offended their sensibilities.

Answer #3
