I'm not sure why everyone buys "chicken breast?" I tend to use chicken thigh meat in the place of breast meat. It's more full flavored and it is normally less money too.

This is funny because almost every chicken recipe I ever use is for thighs and I always have to choke back tears as I substitute breasts.

Wife is really health-conscious (boo), and hates the taste of a) dark meat and b) chicken skin. Nobody's perfect, I guess.

My local grocery store almost never has thighs. Or if they do, they're boned and skinned.

Agree. Plus, chicken breast is gross. I don't get why America loves white meat so much. I mean, ok in a soup or a pot pie or something but dude, thighs are where the flavor is.

That reminds me. When Popeye's opened in Boston, it was packed. I think I saw one white dude in there. Anyway, first they ran out of hot and spicy chicken and half the crowd walked out. Then they announced that they ran out of dark meat and the other half walked. I don't know what happened to the white dude.
