INGREDIENTS OF THE DAY: None
This program is another in the irregular series called hidden ingredients in food where I talk about substances that will never show up on a food label. The subject today is chicken.

By the end, you may be a bit surprised, even a little astonished, or possibly a bit alarmed. We’ll see.
