Re: $11.35 for TWO chicken breasts at Kroger
Is that like “pink slime” they use to make Chicken McNuggets? chuckle


 Quoting: Zovalex


Nah. It's just factory produced ground beef.

The pink slime is all the connective tissues, organs, and meat that was stuck to the bone ground up, emulsified and squirted into forms.

Delicious!
 Quoting: Constant Parad0x

Does it come with barf bags?

 Quoting: Zovalex


Oh c'mon... You've never eaten Chicken McNuggets before?

I don't think there ever was a time that nuggets weren't made of this. In fact, they were worse in the 90s and earlier because they used to include undesirable processing scraps that they don't use anymore. They also only use white meat scraps now.

If you boil a carcass down into a soup, what do you think the soup contains? If you've done it right, there won't be anything left but the bones.

I think the last time I had one was 5 years ago, and I ate it to remind myself of how foul they are.

Re: $11.35 for TWO chicken breasts at Kroger
Yes, it’s organic so the price will be a bit more than the other options, but it’s jumped up from $5.99 a pound to $7.99 a pound.

If this keeps going up, I’m going to have to learn to go straight vegetarian soon.

He’s referring to the Kroger “Simple Truth” brand, but apparently didn’t pay attention to the ORGANIC label.

Big difference as you well know. Yeah, wouldn’t it be fantastic to get 10 pounds of organic chicken breast for $5.99...?! LOL!

Even not buying organic, the prices are getting ridiculous. I was at the grocery store the other day and spent over 150.00 just on things for myself and that was buying generic instead of name brands and I barely had my cart halfway full.

You wouldn't regret it.

If you feel like your body truly needs it after switching (for me, eggs and clams, mussels oysters suffice) ... a little bit every now and then ... 4 oz weekly ... would be all that's nutritionally needed.

I enjoy learning to make really, satisfying good vegetarian food. It's a fun challenge if you like to cook.

Re: $11.35 for TWO chicken breasts at Kroger
In Babylonia during the period 1800 to 1600 BC the daily wage for a common laborer was enough to buy about 15 pounds of wheat.

In Classical Athens in about 328 BC, the corresponding wage could buy about 24 pounds of wheat.

In England in 1800 AD the wage was about 13 pounds of wheat.
 Quoting: Agent 99


Organic white wheat berries are $78 for a 35lb bucket ... so a person making minimum wage could buy 35-40 lbs of wheat in a day, today.

I paid .88/lb for regular chicken breasts and deboned them myself. Had 12 bones so I made chicken soup after boiling them down into a good stock.

I can not afford that organic stuff.

 Quoting: Zovalex


That's very sweet, thank you. I didn't mean to imply that I was needy. I try to keep my bill low so I can save & invest a bit.

It is very, very easy to debone chicken. It has saved me a lot over the years . Of course it takes some time and some people cannot afford the time. It gets faster with practice.

The bones make excellent broth.

Re: $11.35 for TWO chicken breasts at Kroger
I have seen the thigh leg quarters in 10 lb bags and often they can be very cheap! I have seen them for $5.99.

Years back when times were extremely hard, I would buy them and boil them all. I would debone them and make barbecue chicken. Normally my husband will not eat dark meat, but I discovered he liked it just fine if it was pulled, shredded and barbecued.
I would freeze the extra barbeque and some of the broth, and make chicken soup out of the rest.

It's easier to be poor if you aren't very picky, and if you have cooking skill.

I have learned to take inspiration from poorer cultures, too. Rice and beans are really versatile.

That said, I think it criminal inflation is so high the average family can't have steak every now & then.
