Dunno, maybe. If there is, do I win a prize?
 
This is the kind of poll that Michael Scott from The Office would post.

Meaning that, among other things, it's pretty sexist and ought to be removed.

If you go back to the quote in the OP, you will see that we're talking about chicken breasts. Anything else you got out of it is entirely in your own mind.
 
Curse you Evo (I'm guessing it was you?). Spoiling my fun.
 
Yep, It was me.
 
I love chicken breasts for several reasons. First, they are so easy to de-bone. They are also low in fats, with the skin off. I also like the big meaty pieces on a ka-bob, and for salads, theirs nothing better.

As if no one is going to notice that [post=1907794]this response[/post] has the title from before you edited it.

Save it for the playground.

[EDIT] Or, I guess, Evo edited it. Well, now you're being chicken-ist. All of the PF members who are chickens will be highly offended.

Dark meat. Probably I just like the taste of cholesterol.

I'm a big fan of dark meat too, but I also like breasts. Too bad we can't have breasts made from dark meat.

I think that is what is in a Mickey D's chicken sandwich.

Shouldn't this have been a pollo, instead of a poll? :-p
