When we had chicken for dinner my older brother and sister told me, that if you would eat chicken wings one day you could fly! Of course that was exactly what I wanted to do! So I specialized on chicken wings, while they ate away on those legs, that being the reason why they told me that story in the first place. Everybody was happy for a long time with this agreement!
