The demand for convenience meat products is increasing globally due to rapid urbanization, changing lifestyles, increased per capita income, socio-economic status and awareness about hygiene, nutritional, satiety and palatability characteristics. Meat being perishable food requires considerable input for chilling or freezing during storage and marketing which demand continuous energy supply. Spent hen meat, an excellent and cheaper source of animal protein can be effectively use for processing of convenient and self stable products for under developed and developing countries suffering serious protein energy malnutrition. Development of technologies for production of low-cost, safe and acceptable shelf stable spent hen meat products is need of the hour. The review is intended to provide an overview of the present status of the utilization of spent hen meat.
