A person should eat every part of the chicken.

I used to make soup from packages of backs and wings I could buy really cheaply at the market. Some veggies and some mixed grains, and you had food worthy of any table, and for not much money. At one point in my college poverty days, I used to make the soup using chicken scratch feed. The cracked corn, peas, and other grains worked really well, along with the backs and necks and assorted vegetables.
