Seems like they use every part of cows/beef too. At an Asian market in the county, they had frozen bull penis in trays at the meat counter. I was going to take a pic and post it on PPOT, but couldn't find it last time I was there. Guess there wasn't all that much demand for it.

We have one of those Costco Business warehouses here in North Hollywood. In one area of the freezer section they have whole goats and lamb hanging. It's for the Halal restaurants in the area.

I have a neighbor that raises sheep.
His best money maker is selling to the Mid-Eastern transplant people from Detroit.
When they arrive to purchase...they bring a special person who leads in the blood letting.

My sheep farmer Mom refused to sell to those disgusting bastards. I can't stand cruelty to animals.

I'd imagine the feathers would get stuck in your throat?

Anyone bothered by Costco rotisserie chickens had better not visit a wet or farmers market in China. You will never forget the stuff you see there - dogs waiting to be slaughtered being the least of it. They don't waste stuff. They don't package it to look pretty. Everything there is either a food source or a mouth to feed. It's a good learning experience and, well, the food is as fresh as it gets. It's mostly cashless too. All the vendors have QR codes you scan with your phone and pay that way.

I'm 100% Greek - My dad took me to butcher shops and would order an entire lamb. It would get chopped, ground, etc. The head and sweet breads are a delicacy. Lamb liver and other stomach parts were used to make soup (actually pretty good). His dad was a food purveyor - I got exposed to many kinds of food. I'm pretty adventuresome when it comes to food. Just tell me what is is after I eat it. :)

Hunt, harvest, field dress, butcher, package and cook your own wild game............

otherwise, no complaints for having your food provided for you.

Well, San Antonio has fallen to #25 on the fattest cities list for US. McAllen on the border is #1.

I had a woman tell me this week that she is 'big boned'. At 5'4" and a biscuit over 200lbs I'd say it ain't the bones.

I smell a union ploy or pending class action suit.

In these inflationary times you get one vendor to keep their price low on a popular item and some Jaboni has to go and mess with it.

Because he ran out of gas??

prox $5 for a rotisserie chicken that will serve 4 - 5 meals is the norm at many retail grocery locations.

This lawsuit against Costco is doomed.

We get our eggs, and our chickens, from local farmers who let the chickens graze. I find it amusing that chicken packaging routinely brags about "organic" and "vegetarian," particularly that last word. Chickens are not vegetarians. I buy chickens who ate bugs, and their eggs. Particularly their eggs. Mmmm....

svandamme 06-18-2022 10:13 AM

Chickens are carniverous mofo's.

They are small T rexes with feathers and no arms .

If they were bigger they would be a danger to humans.

My ex girlfriend visited China. In a restaurant they ordered a donkey dish. Out the back later they saw a donkey with an amputated leg. There's too much meat on a donkey to eat all at once so the donkey was kept alive until next time. It was the most efficient way of keeping the meat fresh.

The chickens bred for meat in this country don't need free range space. I bought a few for our backyard coop a few years ago. They will literally sit in front of the feeder and eat all day long. They don't leave the coop like other chickens. Because they don't move, the other chickens will start to eat them alive.
