Chicken wing prices are going through the roof. So Wingstop, a chain known for, well, wings, is now selling chicken thighs

[HereWeGoAgain]

I call bullshit.
The Wife just paid 8 bucks for three decent sized chicken thighs.
The lefts inflation affects all chicken pieces.

Today’s prices. $1.99 per pound. If you want organic you pay big. Boneless non-organic is $2.99 per pound.

We only buy the good stuff.

Organic? Then don’t complain. It’s always expensive. Just choke down the antibodies from your chicken you’ll be fine at $1.99 per pound.

It still has gone up across the board.

There's a chicken wing shortage. So this chain wants you to start loving thighs

Chicken wing prices are going through the roof. So Wingstop, a chain known for, well, wings, is now selling chicken thighs. But getting Americans on board could be a challenge.

A chicken wing shortage might just do it for me. Y’all have raised gas prices, kept us locked inside for over a year, and kicked us off social media but I draw the line on a chicken wing shortage. Idk how much more I can take.

Yum, I love hot thighs and hot legs ...

Just don't run out of chicken nuggets in the inner city....all hell will break loose....

That video would be so much more complete if David Attenborough were narrating in the background.

I recall wasting quite a few keystrokes on here warning of this myself prior to all of this.

It's like talking to the wall a lot of the time.

I don't think any of those threads even got any responses.

The circus was just way more interesting, I suppose.

I never get to see night in the wild

 

[strollingbones]

I wonder if any one knows the chicken supply chain and how it works

My granny used to just snatch em up by the neck and give em a good shake.

I doubt many folks have ever had truly fresh southern fried chicken.

I live in Biden's state. For now. If it weren't the corporate capital of the world I'd have been out of this joint a long time ago. There's just so much darned currency to be had here and in the surrounding states.

Anyway, the point of that is that one of the state's biggest industries are the chicken farms down state.

The chickens outnumber the people in the state 200-1 and they process over 200 million chickens each year.

It's filthy, too. Its all you smell when you have to go down that way.

Delaware's growing poultry industry - WHYY

Chickens outnumber residents in Delaware by more than 200-to-1, and with new chicken houses planned, that ratio could be on the rise.

i am amused....my mothers family had chicken houses..the large ones...her sister farmed chickens on a large scale for decades till her son put the business under...yes they do smell...a good thunder storm will cause them to mass and suffocate...and you best be on the companys reps good side and you get there with production
