TYPES Various  styles  of  chicken,  duck  and  turkey  are available for use in Navy messes. All poultry is inspected to make sure it is free from disease and is slaughtered, dressed, and processed in a clean  manner.  Canned,  boned  chicken  and  turkey  are also  inspected  for  wholesomeness. Poultry may also be graded as to quality. Grading is done according to overall appearance, meatiness, amount of fat, and the presence or absence of defects (torn  skin,  discoloration,  bruises,  and  so  forth).  USDA grades A, B, and C are used to indicate poultry that has been officially graded. Grades B and C are not as attractive as grade A but are still wholesome. They may have defects and faulty conformation and be lacking in meat content and fat cover. Examples of grade stamps are shown in figure 6-6.
