  3. Chicken anatomy • Sex is not important for young birds, but in older birds, the difference in the taste, texture and yield diverge dramatically b/w the sexes. • You can purchase parts of chickens and turkeys. Parts are often available as bone-in, boneless, skin-on and skinless. • Kosher chickens are prepared according to Jewish dietary laws. Allowed to roam free, strong breed, free of hormones and artificial ingredients, raised traditionally = costly.

  4. Selection Factors • Inspection of poultry became mandatory in 1957 • Interstate Commerce and processed poultry • 1968 Wholesome Poultry Products Act: The Agency monitors meat and poultry products after they leave federally inspected plants. Require state inspection programs to be "at least equal to" the Federal inspection program. • Poultry grading • Grading Factors • Conformation • Fleshing • Fat covering • Other

If they don’t it has been refrozen.
