Do you know about chicken meat?

The use of chickens as food dates back to very old times. There are pictures of chickens depicted in the engravings of Babylon dating back to 600 BC. This is seen as an important proof that the chicken was eaten as food at that time.

Chicken was one of the most common meats, especially in the Middle Ages. It is known that many chicken dishes are made in a large part of the eastern hemisphere.

In the 1800s, chicken meat was very expensive and difficult to find in the United States.

In addition, due to the shortage of beef and pork during World War II, consumption of chicken meat in the USA has increased considerably.
