To Keel A Chicken Bird
Deli | USA
Customer: “I’d like a piece of white meat.”
Me: “Would you like a rib or a keel?”
Customer: “What’s a keel?”
Me: “The center cut of the best, the middle bone is the sternum.”
Customer: “What, no that’s dark meat. The sternum is in the back of the animal.”
Me: “In chickens, they have an elongated sternum for their wing muscles.”
Customer: “I know every bone in the human body! The sternum is in the back!”
