Valid.
Honestly, not a bad call.
They are cheap (loss leaders if you got a costco card) and they will feed a family for a night. Remainder of the carcass can be made into stock and that will make you way more than the asking price of the same liquid from your local grocer. Fresh home-made stock will bump up any rice or noodle soup you want. Plus, what you dont use quickly can be frozen into soup cubes.
Its easy to cook (if not a bit time consuming) to get $30 worth of stuff from a small $10 bird.
I would personally argue that turkey is a better poultry, but the american thanksgiving roast is the worst way to cook most parts of the bird.
And you mentioned Costco, which is only a $5 bird. Which is insane. Last one I got fed me for three days.
And soon, thanks to our dear leader trump, you can get one with food stamps / EBT.That is If you didn’t get kicked off food stamps by the recent cuts in the OBBB that he also passed…
That is unintentionally hilarious… and correct.
My local grocery store has a variant where it’s 4-5 whole thigh pieces instead of 1 whole chicken, at around the same price. More bang for buck IMO, and fewer bones to deal with.
Burrowing owls are pretty cool
Birds-of-paradise are all ridiculously mesmerizing
Reminds me of a line from an old British sitcom (I think it was Men Behaving Badly, but I’m far from certain):
They asked me to name a bird with a long neck. Apparently “Naomi Campbell” wasn’t right
