    Those saying "go to your local butcher" - please bear in mind that not only does not everyone have such a thing, but that is also likely to be far more expensive - your financial privilege to do such a thing doesn't reflect the financial privilege of a lot of people on the boards. Personally I buy direct from the farm where they're bred and raised - get a whole bird where I know the welfare standards are high, and make use of every scrap - but I'm not for a moment suggesting that spending that amount on a turkey is within the reach of the majority! 
    Paid £20 for our turkey crown fed us for several days @ local butcher last year. Also came from a named local farm. Which is the same price as Sainsbury frozen one.
    So no financial privilege.

    Sadly reason many do not have them, is people stopped using them. I found in covid they were the best source in the area. Stuck with them ever since as have many other that use them.
    Since covid the butcher on our local High St has closed but the butchers at the local shops seem to be busier than ever, they are obviously doing something right.
