Today, I went to our local ecological (aka organic) butcher and bought a whole roasting chicken (at roughly 5.5 pounds, what I'd refer to as a "proper" roasting fowl :)). This is a relatively rare occasion for me -- I usually buy chicken at the local small stupidmarket, since it's close and convenient. I've noticed recently, however, that the chicken from the market is declining in quality and I have the distinct impression, based on the amount of unaccountable liquid in the roasting-frying pan, that the meat's being "plumped" at the factory (not a situation I'm happy with and I can't find anything about it on the package -- clearly, a letter to someone is in order).
Anyway, my 5.5 pound organic bird cost no less that 194.95DKK, roughly 30.70USD. Granted, Copenhagen is one of the most expensive cities in the world in which to live, but jeez! So my curiosity's piqued: what're you folks paying for organic chicken in your part of the world these days?
Which is itPeter Aitken Actually if the knife blade is stamped "Made In Spain" then the knife blade was made in Spain, but if the package is marked...
And should I mention the DK-raised, organic turkey (whole), 6-8 kg, which I can order at a cost of 130DKK per kilo? I think we're not having turkey (again!) this year.
