Poultry.. Do you prefer White Meat or Dark Meat?....

I can eat either white meat or the dark meat but have a higher preference for the dark meat as it seems to be more moist and flavorful. Like you, my daughter can't eat an entire chicken leg because she can't stand to see the bone....lol. She takes 1 or 2 bites and then gives it to my husband or myself.

I prefer white meat. The rest of my family will eat either but my mom always fixed white meat when I was a child so I have never really wanted to try datk meat. I only cook with white meat but if my family requests dark meat then I will fix it to.

I'll eat either but I prefer dark meat. It's much more tender and juicy. Plus I like the flavor of it better. I can't stand white turkey meat at all though. Chicken 'chest' is alright but only if it's been marinated or cooked in a way that seals in the juices.

I LOVE CHICKEN AND TURKEY!! i will eat either white or dark meet, and basically, I have learned to like both, I live with my mom and it's what ever she makes! One night she may make chicken strips or the next just legs and thighs. Doesn't matter to me! YUM either way! My mother makes that easy, because she is a fantastic cook. Bar-b-q, baked or fried - doesn't matter! Bring it on! lol Turkey though I will admit, I do like the White meat better. I just really love how moist it is and OH when we have Stuffing and cranberry and boiled onions in cream sauce- THE BEST!

Hey nanciem, I totally agree with you. I just don't like the dark meat on poultry. I don't like the taste of it at all. It has a a completly different taste then the white meat. It' really funny because some people will only eat the darke meat. My mom doesn't like the white meat. She says it's too dry. I find that most people have a definite preference one way or the other.

i like both meats,so you dont like beef or lamb... hugssssss

I prefer the white meat, it is a waste for me buy a whole chicken because my husbadn doesn't like things with bones either. The white meat to me is the best. I do not eat chicken skin, or veins. All of the othe parts of the chicken, wings, and legs, have too many veins in them. I often wonder when I see commercials on tv and the people are biting into the chicken leg, uggggg If I eat a chicken leg, I do not bite into it, I will pick the meat, to make sure I do not get any veins in my mouth. I definately will not eat chicken wings, nothing but skin, bones and veins.

I used to be a white meat guy, but over the years that has changed. Now I prefer the more flavorful and moist dark meat.
