I would assume the sampling has been discontinued Why Are poultry producers allowed to put such tatty Chicken on the Market Chicken legs Are streaked with at and the breasts Are very fatty also. It really is disgusting and makes me very angry. They Don t even taste like chickens did years ago. Also Why Are the markets allowed to sell meat that has been previously Frozen without informing the customer you buy meat put it in the Freezer and it s getting Frozen a second time. Mrs. Pauline Ott Reading a. I agree with you thai today s chickens Don t taste. Smell or have the texture and leanness of old fashioned chickens modern technology and mass production have produced a different Bird irom the one that used to scratch in the Yard As to the freezing of meal i also agree with you thai meal in the Market that has been Frozen an thawed should be so labelled Lor the Benefit of those Consumers who intend to Lake the meat Homo and freeze it i have asked butchers whether a particular piece of meal had been Frozen or nol and have yet to be told yes. Yet other sources have informed me that All the meat in supermarkets has been Frozen and thawed. Since the freezing of meat is Ollen necessary and an excellent Way to preserve it Why Are butchers so reluctant to admit that a piece of meal has been Frozen perhaps a meal Market manager will write and enlighten us.

Using milk or Cream that has soured under Home conditions is nol a Good idea advises James Chambers of the department of food science at Purdue University. I would not recommend frying to make your own cultured products at Home says Chambers. The cultured p such As Buttermilk Yogurt and sour Cream Are produced under controlled and standardized conditions to produce products with consistent milk or Cream that has accidentally soured at Home could contain harmful bacteria which could cause illness or be a disappointment in your recipe. Or. Chambers advises that you Don t take the risk. However if you need sour milk or Buttermilk for a recipe and Don t have any. Belly Crocker s Cook Book suggests that you stir one Tablespoon of Lemon juice or vinegar into one cup of fresh Sweet milk As a substitute.
