> chicken breasts are frequently around 2 dollars a pound. Minor nit pick with this.. idk about where you live, but here the only "chicken" that gets down to that price is what's called "pumped".. ie, you buy the chicken, but it's 30% chicken broth "for enhanced flavor" and so when you cook it, it ends up tasting absolutely terrible.. not to mention reducing the weight of the cooked product considerably. If you've ever tried to pan sear some chicken or something and you end up with a cup of water in your pan, this is your problem. This shit should be illegal to be sold it's so deceptive. You can tell if you have pumped chicken by looking for the "enhanced with up to 30% water/broth/liquid".. I won't buy any chicken that's "enhanced"(or with "retained water") by more than 5%. Typically that ends up selling here in Cleveland Ohio for around $5/pound or more at a run of the mill grocery store.
