I knew that! :P:giggle:
Did you know that dark meat in chicken is formed by mitochondria and it makes ATP via a form of fermentation due to a lack of oxygen in those muscles. Why? Because the chickens use their muscles a lot, and therefore the oxygen level in those muscles will be low causing it to be dark. The same also applies for migratory birds whose wings and breast meat will be darker than it's legs as they spend the majority of their time in flight.
