At the risk of sounding like a faggot that sounds like
>stop liking things I don't like
How in the fuck do some people prefer chicken breast over chicken thigh?

[Anonymous No.12494948]

I like both equally, and they both have different applications
I eat chicken breast when I lift hard though, and chicken thighs taste better pan fried or grilled

>I eat chicken breast when I lift hard though
I never understood this /fit/ meme. Unless you are training at competition or near competition levels, a 20% differential on protein intake and macro distribution really won't have an impact....but that is for another thread on another board

As far as applications. I guess I can see chicken breast more appropriate for more acidic/lighter dishes than thigh

[Anonymous No.12494968]

it's impossible and a product of the fat scare in the 90's that still lingers
chicken breast is just about the least-tasty meat you can eat

I will agree that the thigh is tastier, but breast has it's applications. I feel like it works much better for the curries I make. Also after I smoke a chicken, the breast is my favorite part to shred and put on a pizza. Shaved chicken breast is the superior sandwich meat. I also use it for home made tendies.

>why do some people like bland and tasteless food
White people food being bland & tasteless is a meme for good reason my dude.

People who can't cook just accept their bland cooking as acceptable to massage their own egos. So they rarely try to improve it, they just repeatedly make the same crap to fill their bellies.

I wish people would shut the fuck up about chicken thighs. You're going to meme them into popularity with all the idiots and they'll cost $6/lb.

Ignorance. The vast majority of normalshits are literally cooking retarded and know nothing about the complexities of food beyond which frozen dinner heats up in the microwave the fastest.

Hey man, its cool. Some people can't cook, you obviously can't read, we've all got our weaknesses.

Chicken breast is really good when it's cooked properly and didn't come from a bag in the freezer. It's awful if you cook it carelessly. Thighs and drumsticks turn out ok no matter how sloppy you are.

If you have a large preference for thighs over breast it's because you're awful at cooking and blame the ingredient instead of your own incompetence.

Also, stop fucking roasting a bird whole and then whining about the breast being dry because you left it in the oven for 3 times longer than its proper cooking time.

[Anonymous No.12495933]

As I get older, I get to know more and more people that adore bland food and hate anything that resembles flavour. People that prefer breast to thighs usually fall into this category.

We're in a chicken breast thread, you fucking invalid. It's apparent what you're referring to. Quit being purposefully obtuse and go neck yourself

Also I know you can't marinade because you think all chicken breast is bland. It's not hard to figure out, kid

What a surprise, it's still a thousand times better than a chicken breast without any salt.

Do they still have the backbone attached? I think people who cook chicken thighs with the backbone removed should be shot without trial.

So you base your tastes on the unseasoned version of everything? Do you understand what cooking is?

Chicken breasts are good for homemade chicken strips/tenders and if you slice em in half they make a fuckhuge chicken patty to deep fry in flour/batter/seasoned flour, I still prefer thighs for those and all other chicken applications, but sometimes a bigass piece of breast is what you're looking for, and if you're not totally stupid you can actually keep it juicy and marinate it to be flavorful.

[Anonymous No.12496179]

breasts are better for things like chicken Caesar salads and some soups, where the extra fat of the thigh isn't wanted.

[Anonymous No.12499200]

>>12495062
Except thighs are better on the grill too. Only thing breast is better for is something where you want the extra texture like on a salad.

[Anonymous No.12499226]

>>12495907
Sorry but meat is just better with more fat. The leaner the meat the worse the flavor is across the board.
Prime rib>sirloin
Toro>Akami
Thigh>breast
