Date: March 19th, 2026 3:09 PM Author: Non sequitur The wisdom around white meat’s superiority emerged not just from henhouse superstition and a misperception of cleanliness owing to darker meat’s color, but also from a medical establishment that associated dark meat with higher fat and calories more than flavor. In 1994, guidelines set by the Food and Drug Administration limited which foods could be labeled “healthy” based partially on their fat content.
In both grocery aisles and the public consciousness, items such as avocados and almonds were deemed too fatty to be “healthy,” while Cocoa Puffs and Pop-Tarts technically qualified. |
