The feathery experience

Someone should really tell the chicken people in Australia to pluck their chickens properly. As a consumer i think i have the right to buy properly pucked chicken. You might think its funny (and i'll admit it is a little) but do u know how disgusting it is to find feathers or small hairs on your chicken ?? EWWW! Which is why almost half of the time i barely eat my favourite part of the chicken.

Today i thought id be really nice to my housemates & cook them roasted chicken wings. Unwrapping the chicken from the safeway container i found that almost 3/4 of the chicken wings had hair or small remains of feathers like this :

So disgusting! Weird thig was that the big feathery hair always came in a pair! Maybe they r love feathers or something - always together, never apart. Ok, that was lame. -_-

So what did i do? I had to pluck my own chicken wings with my tweezer!

Yes, an unglam photo of me in my home clothes. This picture just proves that i did pluck my own chicken - something that should never be done by a consumer ... right?!?

The end product of plucking the feather. Note how long it is man! Can u imagine having that for dinner?

Would you like feathers with that ?
