Cornell study finds children who eat chicken on the bone are more aggressive

ITHACA, N.Y.,Researchers at Cornell University conducted a study about biting versus chewing habits in children and found that kids who eat chicken on the bone are more likely to disobey adults and be aggressive.

The study, which was published in Eating Behaviors, found that children were “twice as likely to disobey adults and twice as aggressive toward other kids” when eating food they had to hold and bite.

Researches found that children were more docile when eating cut-up pieces of food, results which would seem to indicate that there is a connection between having to use teeth to eat and aggressive behavior.

Not everyone agrees with the study’s findings.

“I think people have been eating chicken wings, chicken drumsticks for a millennia and I don’t think it’s made them any more aggressive than they otherwise would have been,” clinical psychologist Dr. Brian Russell told Fox News.

The children that the researchers studied were between the ages of 6 and 10.

“mating habits of the African Tree Frog”

Why? Does eating African tree frog to the bone cause aggression, too?

Eating the neck meat (which amounts to about a tablespoon of chicken)...now that was an act of aggression.

From the flip side of "What's Your Name?"

Chicken Necks (1961)

God!

This would be a good time to come back.

Like right now.

If not, could you let Ithaca sink into the ground in the largest sinkhole this country has ever seen?

Yes, they should only eat the boneless nuggets from McDonald’s and Burger King because those don’t make you aggressive, they make you fat and lazy.

I don’t even remember them having wings separate when I was a kid, all I remember is whole chickens.

I remember my cousins visiting and they broke the bones and sucked out the marrow, it grossed me out.

They are in their 60s and they still aren’t serial killers.

We raised poultry and a couple of calves. First time I was sent to water the poultry, chickens(layers and a few banties, squabs, etc), ducks and turkeys it seems they didn’t like the hose. Strange, it worked for the garden.

There is something to be said for hanging the bird upside down and then using a razor sharp knife to cut the arteries. Sure beats axing the head off and having to watch the headless bird run around.
