    That's why I bought a tray of 24 fresh large chicken breasts for only £18 from Smithfields meat market in London.

    Fresh water ... sorry but thats not what they use...."Some of the processing companies also used beef and pork proteins to hold in the water."
    "Manufacturers have also been criticised for adding hydrolysed chicken protein, which is extracted from parts of the bird not used for food, such as skin, bone, and feathers. "
    Mmmmmm tasty
