I rarely cook chicken, other than skinless boneless breasts I never buy parts. I usually cook whole chickens, most usually 7+ pound oven stuffer roasters. I never buy chicken parts because its easy to see that they are not from the same chicken, which means they tossed the cancerous parts. Years ago chicken wings were plentiful and cheap. The wings were included with whole chickens for soup... the wing's tender white meat was reserved for young children... years ago no one ever heard of spicy hot wings. As a child my parents bought chicken from a live chicken market, there was no such thing as parts. People chose a live bird, it was killed, plucked, cleaned and wrapped in newspaper to bring home, there was no plastic wrap. Some butcher shops sold cleaned chickens and would quarter them if asked and wrap it in brown butcher paper. At that time the only way to get wings was to buy whole chickens, naturally only two wings per. |

What it means is that they are catering to customers who don't want to cook a whole chicken and who would rather have legs, or breasts, or thighs, or drumsticks. > Years ago chicken wings were plentiful and cheap. The wings were > included with whole chickens for soup.. My wife used to eat a lot of chicken wings when she was young and didn't have much money. She could buy a big bag of wings for next to nothing, bake them and have several nights worth of leftover wing dinners. The Buffalo wing thing has been around for more than 40 years, at least in this area. We are only 20 miles from Buffalo, and back in the 70s their popularity was spreading rapidly. There aren't many places where you can get wings that you can get the great wings they make in the Niagara area where they are small to medium size, deep fried and tossed in Frank's sauce and margarine, and yes, this is one dish in which margarine is better than butter. |

I remember when there were no supermarkets, To buy chicken one went to a live chicken market... I can still recall the schtink... to a butcher shop that sold whole previously cleaned chicken... live chicken markets were plentiful in NYC. Or they went to a chicken farmer for butchered chicken. At that time there were many farms in NYC... as kids we would steal fruit and vegetables. There are lots of chicken farms where I live, one can buy eggs or meat chickens... when chickens stopped laying they became meat chickens... I have many neighbors who raise their own chickens for eggs, meat, and for sale as extra income. They also raise guinea hens, turkeys, ducks, and other poultry, like old soup chickens and roosters. |

It doesn't cause cancer. Also, chicken feet and chicken beaks just don't lend themselves to smoking. We had a neighbor's chicken roosting in our apple tree a couple of years ago. It'd be fun to blow shotguns to a chicken and see how it acted when it was high. Of course, I don't smoke weed, and I'd have to drive over to the East Side to buy some, and by then, the chicken would probably have flown the coop, and I'd be left with expensive weed that would be useless to me, and I'd feel like I had egg on my face. > -- > Best > Greg --Bryan |

Popeye, I figured yoose for a man who only eats the titties off the chicken and throws the rest out yoose window. |

I'm not contesting that (although the "supermarket" concept was developed in 1913, well before you were born). I'm asking why on earth butchers would be giving away chicken wings for feeding infants "the tender white meat". Or they went > to a chicken farmer for butchered chicken.

Just be sure to get them as soon or as close to as soon out of the deep fryer as possible. If they sit under that heat lamp too long they turn into little concrete clumps. |

I mentioned eating some on Thursday. I had to buy 3 slices in the packet and cooked them all. I had the second one cold last night and used some of the third (cold) in a sandwich for lunch today. It was so tender it was almost like eating liver paté. I think I'll watch out for more next time I venture out to the supermarket. Graham |
