Before 1400 B.C., the Chinese raised chickens for meat and eggs. While many historians thought chickens were first brought to the Americas by explorers and pilgrims, a recent discovery shows that chickens lived in Chile from the 1300s. They were brought there by the Polynesians. In our time, chicken is a highly recommended addition to our diets. It’s low in fat, particularly without the skin and its fat is lower in cholesterol than other meat fats.
