The frozen smart price chicken portions (drums and thighs) are nice. Cost £1.39 for 1KG.

Chicken police back on patrol.

Seriously, if you *met* any chickens, you wouldn't touch cheap chicken with a barge pole. Like cats and dogs, they all have their own personalities and if us humans wish to eat them, the least we can do is let them have a decent standard of living whilst they're alive.

If you kept cats or dogs in the conditions that broiler chickens are kept in, you'd be prosecuted.

The "I need cheap chicken to feed my family" argument doesn't wash I'm afraid, when there are plenty of cheaper options for protein.

i would rather spend the extra non free range egg/chicken money on fair trade chocolate =/ "According to the Stop the Traffik campaign for an end to modern slavery, more than 12,000 trafficked children are working on Ivory Coast plantations to produce 43 per cent of the world’s cocoa beans."
