I'm a vegetarian so can't really comment about the taste of chickenAll the chicken I've seen over the past year or more seem to have the tell tale signs of being already frozen and then defrosted (slight pool of water when you hold the packet facing down).
... and one of the things I thought was written in stone was that defrosted meat cannot be re-frozen. Your post gives the impression that you may be finding defrosted chicken on sale in multiple outlets, perhaps you might clarify?
In England its all frozen so it goes that the same will apply in mIreland ..... I went into Sainsburys in Camden town a few (probably5) years ago for some late night shopping, the beef I was buying was frozen and when I pointed this out to the staff they informed mre that all the meat arrived frozen and was defrosted under controlled conditions. Like in my shopping basket or the fridge. I am informed that this meat is suitable for freezing. It is a disgrace of the highest proportions and as usual nothing will be done as the profits grow.
D'ont know about anyone else, but I would go balistic if someone next door decided to slaughter a load of ducks in their garden.
I agree I have been buying the M&S Oakham chickens for about 2 years now, they taste so much better! They are not free range or organic but I would not buy my chicken now anywhere else. I stock up the freezer when they are on half price offer. Total saddo, I know!I sometimes buy chicken from M&S and find it tastes much better and totally different to other supermarkets and even most butchers.
