My chicken thighs were covered in pinfeathers. Is this common or did i just get a bad batch? (lemmy.ml)

I had bought about 5 lbs of free range foster farms chicken thighs and every thigh was covered in feather quills. It was in 4 different packages so I'm not really convinced it was a one off.

I usually buy a different brand and have never had this problem before.

Do you guys usually spend the time to pluck the feathers yourself or just bin it?

A bunch of chickens died for you to throw them away over some feathers, shame on you.

🤷‍♂️ oh well. Wont happen again.

I mean it's not ideal, but at the end of the day its just chickens. You don't expect me to lose sleep over it do you?

Wasting a bunch of food, especially meat is pretty shitty.

we disagree on how shitty it is.

Takes like these are why climate change will kill us all.

My 5 lbs of chicken is a drop in the ocean. It'd be different if you caught me zooming around in a private jet.

Yes, exactly, that's the selfish attitude I'm talking about.
