Anyone experienced 'em?

Apparently, CAFOs have become so successful at raising frankenfood
animals, we now grow chickens with breasts that weigh as much as an
entire chicken did, 50 yrs ago. Not sure if Jesus wept or jes ****ed
up a rope:

Regardless, I haven't eaten commercial chicken in ages and organic
chickens are a tad too pricey.

I've come across that twice, even mentioned it here. Once
in a restaurant and once in some take out chinese.

It freaks me out to bite into a rubber piece of chicken.

Which should be the *minimum* retail price possible, reflecting the
cost of raising all chicken properly.

That would be excruiatingly bland, devoid of texture, and over priced,
I presume. Seriously, a catfish filet has a more distinct flavor.

It seems to be international. A gal I see on a FB food group just
mentioned that today. Said she fired off an email about it.

No kidding, that's interesting.

It's not like anything I've come across before, nothing like
overcooked or whatever bad things people do to chicken.
It's something different and it's bad, and I will send it back
the next time it happens, if I have the misfortune of doing so.

Yep! I've noticed that!! I split today's chicken breasts into two for two meals because they are so huge! FrankenFood is RIGHT! :-(

I've noted it too. I'm not a white meat chicken fan overall. When we
make a chicken, most of the breast goes to the doggies (who give us
long suffering looks because they are also dark meat fans).

Most of the time I do leg quarters or thighs because we like it better.
Sadly, we've had quite a few times lately where breast was cheaper than
thighs or thighs were not in stock.

Yeah, I've seen those things that look like Schwarzenegger's
pecs. I've been buying Bell & Evans because they're smaller.
Sure, they're $7 per pound, but that gets me four meals.
Well worth it, since skinless, boneless chicken breast is
my major source of meat.

They may be 3D printer produced chicken.

I suspect a mental blockage of some sort. When was the last time you had an MRI?

"MrD" is not a problem. "DS1" certainly is. I guess expecting some people of advanced age to get 3 random characters and one semi-random number right is too much to expect. What the heck, they're off-kilter about everything else anyway. Hee hee.
