A wishbone is a bone that is found in a chicken and turkey. People use the bone to make a wish. Two people hold one side of the bone and whoever gets the smaller piece of bone is the winner and gets to make a wish.
This bone is called wishbone because of an old tradition in western countries. If two people find a wishbone when they are dining, they pull on each side of it. When it breaks, the one who gets the larger part is supposed to have a wish granted.
The wishbone is easily removed from the turkey after cooking, but it can be cut out of the turkey prior to cooking by pulling the front skin back from the breast. The wishbone should appear close to the surface where you can use a sharp knife to cut along both sides of the two prongs of the wishbone. You will then need to use the knife to cut underneath the wishbone itself to separate it from the meat. Remove the wishbone, and pull the skin back down over the breast.
