Tip of Targeh: This detail in color helps to choose the chicken in the supermarket better

Not all chickens for sale on the butcher or supermarket are equal. At first glance, the difference may seem to be summed up to the color of the skin, some yellower, some more pale, but there is more behind this variation than many imagine.

The distinction between yellow chicken and white chicken has been increasingly generating curiosity among consumers, especially thanks to the sharing of explanations made by industry professionals on social networks.

One of the most talked about cases involves a Spanish carving, known as El As Carnicero, who turned to the Tiktok platform to clarify what separates these two varieties of poultry.

Slow creation versus intensive growth

According to the expert, yellow skin chicken, often labeled as “certified”, is distinguished by slower growth and a more rigorous creation process. “Certified yellow chicken grows much slower,” he says. White chicken, on the contrary, is created in intensive regime, which, according to the carving, accelerates growth and reduces production costs.

Controlled power makes a difference

Food emerges as one of the main differentiating factors. According to El Carnicero, yellow chicken is fed with cereals and is subject to a more controlled diet, while white chicken comes from more industrial explorations, with less control in food. “It has a more controlled diet,” says the expert.

Less antibiotics, more flavor

Another underlined aspect is the use of antibiotics. The Spanish carving states that yellow chicken contains “less antibiotics, more flavor and higher quality”. In addition, it mentions that this type of chicken has a lower percentage of water in the meat, which contributes to a firmer texture and a more concentrated flavor at the time of making.

The difference is noted on the plate

In the case of white chicken, the advantages reside mainly in price, which is generally more accessible to the consumer. However, the Carnicero points out that this accessibility may imply a commitment to quality. “It’s much cheaper and has less flavor,” he says, adding that meat tends to retain more water, which can affect its consistency after cooking.

Reactions on social networks

The publication of the video generated a wide repercussion among the followers of the carving on social networks. Many commented unaware of the differences between the two types of chicken, revealing surprise with the details related to the creation mode and the impact on the quality of the final product.

Similar nutritional value, but with nuances

Although both variants have similar nutritional values, protein -rich and low in fat, creation conditions and production methods remain relevant aspects for the most attentive consumer. The video of El As Carnicero is part of a series of educational contents about meat and food practices, often shared by the Spanish professional in his account.

Content with informative purposes

Talk statements, based on their industry experience and traditional creation methods, reinforce the importance of knowing the origin of food products and the processes they are subject to before they reach the dish.
