Whole Foods: Organic Whole Chickens $1.99 Per Pound

haters gona hate.

Whole foods organic chicken is amazing. I lived in Europe for half of my life and chicken there tastes like...chicken should taste. Chicken here from places like Kroger is nothing more than protein in meat form, it has absolutely no taste which is why you have to put so many spices/sauces etc. Real chicken meat is very flavorful. The meat that comes closest to what Whole Foods sells is the organic costco meat. Don't let your political views influence a good deal like this.. It's like crazy liberals going into gun threads and talking trash, you are doing the same thing except your comments aren't being deleted.

Quote from ny153 : yeah, sure, access is the key word have you seen these farms? - organic is another BS way for companies to make money.

Thanks for the laugh.

BTW, I'd do a little research and better inform yourself.

Ugh, wish there was something on chicken breast--then I'd go crazy!

Do they take food stamps?

.....and you know the reason they aren't deleted....give you one guess.

Quote from Ratko : You can't compare Tj's to whole foods unless it's your first week of trying to be organic, traders is garbage and I'm pretty sure Tj's does not have organic whole chickens for 2.50 per pound.

nah TJ chicken is just as good as whole foods chicken

TJ meats are no good. Once started buying local (organic or not matters less), how they treat/process meats matters more to me. Most of the WF stuff comes from lot better and usually local processors, atleast here in our area. Wish had one closer to home.

They have to take food stamps by law.

I've read some horror stories in the last few years regarding some of the huge chicken farms and the feed, anti-biotics and hormones fed to these birds, among other things. While I'm no tree hugger, I did buy five chickens this morning and shop at WF when I can afford it....great store.

good deal. I'd be willing to pay this price for typical krogers, foster farms, tyson etc. so this is good for organic chicken, regardless of the legitimacy behind the label. However, after moving back to CA, I get my chicken steamy, hot, and fresh (freshly slaughtered chicken is very warm) from the local poultry butcher, and it's never refrigerated or gets anywhere near a refrigerator as its taken home immediately for cooking. I can actually see them in the back slit the chicken, drain the blood out, de-feather, and put it in a bag for me. Makes an amazing chicken soup broth and the natural flavor from the meat is amazing. No seasoning required.

Google: "Fresh Poultry" to find local poultry butcher places. There are quite a few if you're in the LA area. Once you go fresh, you'll never go back to refrigerated chicken.

Disclaimer: The smell could make you gag if you're sensitive. Oh, and the last cries of the chickens before they are slaughtered...watch out for that.

I only eat Live caught chickens that have lived to ripe old age and die in their sleep.

Quote from mutha_scratcha : I only eat Live caught chickens that have lived to ripe old age and die in their sleep.

Impossible in the US because a 100% natural/wild chicken takes over a year to mature and ripen to an age where it's ready to be slaughtered. Not economical at all to feed the millions in this nation who demand their chicken nuggets NOW. That's why nowadays they can push chickens to maturity within a month with injections. Gotta love'em roid chickens. Old chicken (popular for it's savory taste) takes even longer to wait until it ripens to that old age flavor range.

This is a great deal, but be mindful that WF was busted for selling GM foods w/o infoming the public(even tho their chicken is great IMO). And for those people who are saying "chicken is chicken," here's what you guys were eating

P.S. I'd take Trader Joes over WF any day of the week.
