Searched for a general rant thread to add my rant to, but came up only with specific topic rants.
I almost posted to the pet peeve thread, but rants just sound more serious that pet peeves especially when you want to give the topic of a rant a little more weight. Thus I'm starting a general rant thread.
Thus my rant... DW and I love chicken as a go-to protein. If I recall, there used to be a class of chicken called 'young fryer'..the were about 1/2 the size of todays heavyweight birds and very tasty and easy to handle, especially the fried variety.
WTH is going on with these monster birds that the chicken farms are cranking out. I picture these poor mothercluckers sitting in cages and getting force-fed growth hormones for their short lives until they almost explode from their own weight. They just ain't the same taste anymore.
Don't get me wrong, I'll still eat 'em, but I miss the small fry.
This concludes this rant...feel free to start your own. I feel better now.
