Did You Know?

Chicken
is one of the most digestible of meats, contains
considerable
phosphorus and is particularly valuable as food for people on special
diet.
Turkey
is somewhat less digestible than chicken. Ducks and geese are
difficult of digestion, unless quite young, on account of the fat they
contain.
Game, if well cooked, is fairly digestible.

their relation to the body will be
of
little use for practical purposes unless combined with the knowledge
of how the various foods should be prepared, either by cooking or in
whatever other form circumstances and the material may require.
