Believe it or not. Chicken wings were never as popular as they are now. Most producers had trouble getting rid of the wings and they could be purchased at little cost from any butcher since they were considered as useful as bones, feet and internal organs. The new popularity of "wings" is just recent. The birds were grown mainly for breast and white meat with thighs, drum sticks and wings sold off for stewing and picked meats. As little as 15 years ago wings, backs and thighs of chickens could be ordered from processors to be used as stock in major kitchens and never thought of as actual sellable "meat".

The rest of the chicken is used for various food products, such as chicken breast, thighs, drumsticks, and nuggets. It can also be processed into chicken stock, soups, or used in pet food. Nothing goes to waste in the poultry industry, as by-products like feathers and bones are utilized in other industries, such as fertilizer production or cosmetics.
