A turkey wishbone will turn to rubber when placed in vinegar because the vinegar dissolves the calcium. Calcium is what makes a bone hard.

When you break the wishbone, the person who has the larger half is the lucky one.
The wishbone is easily removed from the turkey after cooking, but it can be cut out of the turkey prior to cooking by pulling the front skin back from the breast. The wishbone should appear close to the surface where you can use a sharp knife to cut along both sides of the two prongs of the wishbone. You will then need to use the knife to cut underneath the wishbone itself to separate it from the meat. Remove the wishbone, and pull the skin back down over the breast.
People believe drying the "wishbone" of a turkey, then having two people making "wishes" while pulling on the two sides, is lucky. When the wishbone breaks, the person holding the larger piece is supposed to have their wish come true.
you get to choose silly :)
