I'm a dark meat guy as well.
I like white meat too, but feel like it needs some additional flavor, like a sauce, bacon (although, I guess everything is better with bacon), or various condiments.
Dark meat has a better flavor on its own.
I guess it also depends on what I'm doin with it. I guess if I'm using the chicken in a dish, I tend to use breast meat, but just eating a piece of chicken I prefer thighs.

And Groundhog:
even those brussel sprouts look good!

WTF is a breast quarter?

The only quarters I know of are a combo of leg and thigh (all dark meat)

In general, most men prefer dark meat and most women prefer white meat. I prefer dark but have acquired a taste for white because of how I have learned to cook it to be moist and not dry.

Dark meat with the skin. Why? Because it is supposedly the worst for you.

(1) take whole chicken.

(2) cut into 4

i guess split chicken breast may better suit you, then sell the wing seperately for twice as much per pound...

Definitely like the dark meat better (the extra fat in the thighs just renders it with more flavor IMO). The son and I like dark, my wife and daughter like white, so it works out great!

Dark here also. I have proven this several times. All of my in in-laws claim to be white meat eaters. After church on Sunday, I have to pick up a bucket of chicken (when they are down and don't have time to cook). I pick up half and half. All of the dark and wings are gone and there are usually 3 or 4 white pieces left.
