#2 Chicken

Okay, do I really need to say anything here?  Black people do you know any Black people who don't like chicken.  I actually did meet a Black person who didn't like chicken.  It was a long time ago back in 1997 or 1998.  Yes, I know that's a long time ago, but I was young at the time.  Anyway, it was this girl that I knew in high school.  No she wasn't cute and no I wasn't interested in her.  I was just with a group of people and we were at school at the time and I brought up the fact that Black people like chicken and then she went on to say that she was Black and she didn't like chicken and then I told her that she wasn't really Black and then she was like, "my skin color says different" and then I said,  "no it doesn't . . ."

Let me tell you something about Black people and chicken.  KFC, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Church's Chicken, Purdue, Boston Market, and that chicken place around the corner are all involved in a multi-billion dollar conspirical (yes, I said conspirical) industry that has Black people eating their food.  I don't know how many billions of dollars these companies are oozing out of the palms black people, but it has to be more than one or two.

The real reason why Black people eat so much chicken is simple.  Who on Earth doesn't like chicken?  Chicken is cheap, it's hard to mess up, easy to make, and it's neither bland nor overly tasty all by itself.  You really have to go out of your way to mess up a chicken recipe.  Also, it does help that chicken is not that expensive.  Have you ever tried buying some shrimp or lobster only to look at the price and thinking twice before putting that shrimp or lobster right back where it was?  See, I thought I told you I know what I'm talking about.

Furthermore, chicken is just chicken.   Have you ever tasted it?  Just taste it, and you'll see how hard it is to mess up chicken.  You can eat chicken with basically anything and you can make it anyway you want.  You can eat it with mustard or honey mustard, katchup, hell . .  . even mayonnaise.  You can fried it, bake it, steam cook it, broil it, grill it, sautee it.  There's also barbecue chicken, popcorn chicken, jerk chicken, honey  mustard chicken, chicken cacciatore, chicken cordon bleu . . . I mean the list goes on and on and people are always coming up with new chicken recipes.  Next to rice, chicken is one of the world's most popular foods on an international scale.  It also helps that chickens are much easier to kill than many other animals that humans eat.
