Why does chicken meat taste different in different areas

288 viewsBiologyOther

Why does some chicken meat taste different based on where it’s from, like for example the meat closer to the bones has a distinctly chicken-y taste. While the outer meat or breast meat has a really neutral flavor. I haven’t noticed this with beef or other meats.

Hadn’t noticed with other meats? Pork chops and bacon are from different places on the same animal and those are super different flavour, texture, colour and fattiness.

A chicken is a lot smaller than a pig so you get the variation across one portion you’re eating rather than being able to buy just the bacon region etc.
