I am a huge fan of chicken and love it.  I had no idea that chicken was eaten even in ancient Babylon.  How about you, big fan of chicken?
I'm a fan also. I really like the simplicity and how it can be incorporated into many different styles. 
I even like McDonald's chicken!  I appreciate that someone can find it literally anywhere around the world in one of the 119 or so countries where it operates.  You are right about the many styles!
