Incredible, a product that nobody wanted became a success.

I wonder how much products failed because people haven't found their real function. They did just some adjustments on bacon and it became a success as a flavor enhancer.




A very similar thing happened with chicken wings - they used to be discarded, and now they cost more per pound than any other chicken part.


Well remembered. I also heard a history about chicken legs years ago.

I also worked on a firm, in Brazil, that make a ERP software for Chicken producers. Some of our clients told me all chicken legs was separated and send to Asia (I think it was Japan), where it is a really appreciated product.
