You asked a great question about chicke...Hi there! You asked a great question about chicken prices on my curry chicken post and I wanted to anwer you (and i plan to do ablog post on that soon). As im sure you are well-aware, the chicken breasts at superstore, unless marked otherwise, are conventionally raised in factory farms, and thus is cheaper (though even with conventionally-raised chicken buying the wholebird is cheaper than just the breasts, by pound, by far). But if you bought your burd from a small, local farm that took the time, energy and cost to raise it naturally, it will definitely be more expensive, but chances are you will get what you paid for in quality and youre contributing to a more sustainable system. For me, i buy organic chickens at superstore and they usually cost about 16 dollars for a smallish bird. Compared to organic breasts its the same price for a whole bird or just the breasts. So in the end, buying the bird is cheaper within the same category of chicken, but yeah the local bird will cost you more than the conventionally-raised breasts at the store. Hope that helps! :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10412744189611967954noreply@blogger.com
