Chicken lovers, prepare your beaks! September is coming which means it's officially National Chicken Month!
From roasted chicken, fried chicken, chicken pot pie, chicken noodle soup, chicken masala, chicken piccata, to chicken biriyani, chicken can take multiple flavorful and delicious forms so why not dedicate a whole month to appreciating and devouring it?
Who Started National Chicken Month
It is all thanks to the National Chicken Council (yes such a council exists in America!) who started celebrating National Chicken Month in September.
The National Chicken Council is basically the cheerleader for the U.S. chicken industry. They work to make sure chicken farmers and processors have a good playing field by talking to the government and promoting chicken as a great food.

Give Back: Chicken for a Cause
National Chicken Month is not just about enjoying delicious chicken dishes but also about giving back to the community. Consider donating chicken-based meals to those in need.
