For to long it's been seen as a cheap easy food....the nation munching down on quick easy food while millions of chickens spend 6 short weeks sat in there own shite before being halhaled. Same fat cnuts stuffing their faces on it as tell us we are cruel for shooting a pheasant or catching a rabbit. You are bang on, that’s the state of the country we are living in now , sad times all round. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But mrs keeps refusing to learn to skin and gut any game I bring home for her. So just easier for her to get chicken from the shop I won’t eat roast chicken but decent chicken pie with the stuffing etc i can tolerate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nicepix 5,650 Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 Roast chicken on Sunday. Chicken stir-fry yesterday, and risotto made with chicken stock and left overs today The red label chickens from Lidl are pretty good value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
