dreamer_easyA puff piece for chook growers in today's SMH:
Helter Shelter
The executive director of the Australian Chicken Meat Industry: "People who pay $30 per kilogram for an organic chicken are off their bloody heads." Apparently so, since the organic delivery service I use will sell you an entire chook for $15 - $20, or a kilo of drumsticks for $13. (You will pay $30/kilo for a tray of breast meat, tho.) If the boys would actually eat the stuff, I'd buy it for them, but raw meat seems to be beyond their culinary grasp.
