turkey meat color

["Nancy A. Gifford" <SCP_GIFFO@SALS.EDU>]

An extra credit science question which I know we answered several
years ago, but memory now fails.
   Why is some of tth

e turkey meat white and some dark?  I think
it had to do with amount of muscle, but not exactly sure what
and don't know the actual reference where the information can
be found.
Thanks for the help,
