Shit, did people finally find out thighs taste better?

Keep that quiet. If people never realize the superior flavor and juiciness, we can keep them to ourselves.

Too late price equalized in the us over last two years.

At this rate prolly get start demanding premium

They have been targeting cheat quality foods to raise prices since covid like crazy

Beef and eggs... Now chicken thighs. It is getting hard for the peasant class to eat good base foods.

Capitalism: an object's cost determined solely on how much customers are willing to pay on a large scale. Raise the price while they pay. When they stop, raise the price again but announce a few pence discount and they will start paying again.

Well idiot refuse to do such product substitution.

Telling an American pedom that he cna eat pork instead of beef for half or their the price... And he will have a melt down if you pimp slapped him.

God forbid he has to adjust his consumption patterns to respond to price gouging.

With idiots like this, we deserve it🤡
