Meat on the bone

Hello little one! Let's talk about meat on the bone. You know when you eat chicken wings or ribs, and there's that yummy meat still attached to the bone? That's meat on the bone!

The bone is like the skeleton of the animal, and it's covered in muscles that we eat. When we cook the meat on the bone, it gives the meat a lot of flavor and makes it more tender. The bones also keep the meat moist and juicy, which makes it taste really good.

But be very careful when eating meat on the bone, because you don't want to accidentally swallow a bone. Remember to chew your food really well, and if you see any bones or other things you can't eat, make sure to take them out before you take a bite.

So next time you eat chicken wings or ribs, try to appreciate the meat on the bone and all the flavor that comes with it!
