Why You Should Put More Chicken in Your Diet
Chicken is America’s favorite white meat, and there’s no question why. Flame grilled, crispy breaded, Buffalo sauced, or dipped in ranch, it’s the perfect protein
for any time of day. And we aren’t the only ones who think so! March 19th is National Poultry Day, but celebrating our love of chicken shouldn’t be limited to just one day. There are plenty of reasons to add more poultry to your diet all year long!
The Origins of National Poultry Day
National Poultry Day got its start as just plain Poultry Day in 1951, in a small town festival in Versailles, Ohio. It was a quirky local annual fair that quickly grew from a one-day celebration to a two-day event as people flocked to enjoy local booths, performances, and of course, food. Today, the party continues nationwide, and in Versaille, OH, the regular population of less than 3,000 turns into a booming 52,000 for two days out of the year. If you can’t make it to Ohio for National Poultry Day this year, take part at home, and celebrate all things poultry!
Why Choose Chicken?
Chicken is mild in taste, making it perfect for flavorful spices and delicious sauces. High in protein, low in fat, and loaded with vitamins B and D, chicken also packs quite the nutritional punch. The American Heart Association recommends lean meats like chicken or fish over red meat to lower your risk of high cholesterol and heart disease. It’s great for weight loss due to its lower caloric content, making chicken a smart addition to any healthy diet. And because beef is the largest dietary contributor to greenhouse gasses, choosing chicken is also better for the environment.
