About Turkey white meat
Turkey white meat is the lighter-coloured muscle meat of a turkey, most commonly breast meat. The term describes a colour and cut category rather than a particular processing method; products may be sold bone-in or boneless, with or without skin, and raw or cooked.
Raw white meat is pale pink and becomes opaque when cooked. Its flavour is mild and its texture ranges from moist and tender to firm or dry depending on the cut and cooking. It may be sold as a whole breast, slices, or smaller portions.
