Thread Name: BS: Chicken from SE Asia
Subject: RE: BS: Chicken from SE Asia
Here in the UK we are surrounded by waters teeming with fish ; but,because of European Quotas (which ,naturally ,favour everbody except the UK !) we are now importing fish ( Tilapia -Yuk !! ) from , I believe ,the Nile and the Mekong Delta ! AS for chicken ; I saw a TV program (I'll spell it your way !) recently ,about the fate of chickens at a Thai or Vietnamese processing plant . The chickens are hung upside-down . They go into a machine to be plucked . They are STILL ALIVE !! . so--- do NOT buy foreign chicken . Sadly ,most Chinese and Indian restaurants in the UK are supplied with CHEAP Far Eastern chicken , but I only buy British, corn-fed , free range birds ( less fat and much tastier !).
