    Cheap chicken is just a tasteless source of protein. It's also extremely cruel to the creature. You can pick up a decent sized organic bird for around €15. It tastes delicious and is still good value.


    That must be the Arnold Schwarzenegger of organic poultry! :D

    I'd rarely consciously go for organic but that would be a mighty sized chicken for that price surely, even taking into account that organically sourced produce is generally that bit dearer.

    Maybe it's just the cost of living difference between Germany and Ireland, I dunno?

    As much as I'd like to I don't think raising chickens in the apartment would pass with the management company! Or with the Baroness for that matter!

    Monsanto genetically modified seeds. 'Burn the thing' I heard a few times in the local chipper regarding a dinner-box. The cook says ok no questions asked ? well cooked chicken seems to be the menu of the week.

    I'm going getting a few at home this summer as I could put them to bigger weights etc and would hopefully be healthier when cooked etc


    Only issue is not to make too much of a pet of em :)

    I for one only eat partridge, shot on the Estate, and reared on a diet of heather and commoners. Our "Smug Villas Partridge Pancakes" contain 100% Partridge, feathers, pellets and all. Taste shyte, but you can feel the opulence oozing out of every moreish pancakey fold..
