I was recently at Wayan‘s house partying like it was 1999 with him and his Butterbean when he took what should have been a piece of refuse from the dining table and proceeded to strip the remaining meat from the carcass. He found such tiny bits of goodness left among the bones that I had neither the eyes to see nor the palate to appreciate.

Yes, I am vegetarian but I just have to respect a guy who isn’t too bashful to start sucking on a chicken corpse to extract every last tasty morsel and bit of nutrient left. It’s refreshing to see the youth of today so excited about not wasting even a scrap of useful food.

What do you do to reduce food waste? What is the chicken corpse in your diet?
