Chicken breast
Chicken as a meat has been depicted in
Babylonian carvings from around 600 BC.
[3] Chicken was one of the most common meats available in the
Middle Ages. It was widely believed to be easily digested and considered to be one of the most neutral foodstuffs. It was eaten in most countries in the
Eastern hemisphere, but also different kinds of poultry, such as
capons,
pullets and hens were eaten. Poultry was one of the basic ingredients in the so-called
white dish, a
stew usually consisting of chicken and fried onions cooked in milk and seasoned with spices and sugar.
Chicken consumption in the US increased during World War II due to a shortage of
beef and
pork.
[4] In Europe, consumption of chicken overtook that of beef and
veal in 1996, linked to consumer awareness of
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy or B.S.E.
