I had bought about 5 lbs of free range foster farms chicken thighs and every thigh was covered in feather quills. It was in 4 different packages so I'm not really convinced it was a one off.
I usually buy a different brand and have never had this problem before.
Do you guys usually spend the time to pluck the feathers yourself or just bin it?
You're viewing a single thread.
It's happened to me before, but I would just pluck the feathers. Can't waste meat like that. As annoying as it might be to hear, do remember those chickens were alive before.
I couldn't bring myself to pluck the thighs. There was just too much to do and it was going too slow.
Can't you just skin them and throw away only the skin?
You could have frozen them until you do have time to either a) fool with it yourself or b) find someone to give them to. I get wanting to be mindful of how our time is used, but binning them is wasteful of money, of resources, and of those lives.
Just pull the skin off, it takes just a few seconds
A bunch of chickens died for you to throw them away over some feathers, shame on you.
🤷♂️ oh well. Wont happen again.
I mean it's not ideal, but at the end of the day its just chickens. You don't expect me to lose sleep over it do you?
Wasting a bunch of food, especially meat is pretty shitty.
we disagree on how shitty it is.
Takes like these are why climate change will kill us all.
My 5 lbs of chicken is a drop in the ocean. It'd be different if you caught me zooming around in a private jet.
Yes, exactly, that's the selfish attitude I'm talking about.
What did you do with them?
Oh, you know what they did.
Chicken fleshlight. Bit prickly still
