Organic (Rosie) is $3.99 whole, $10.99 breast. It was cheaper pre pandemic, the bird flu hasn’t raised prices a second time.
We’ve been making our trucks bigger, heavier and shittier for decades because of a law that says the bigger the truck, the more it’s allowed to pollute. And by god, do we love to pollute. Nobody else in the world is interested in that shit.
