You like chicken soup, too? It's one of my favorites. I normally make chicken soup with the bones. I can buy the bones very cheaply at the market. Then I add in big onions, garlic and potatoes. What's your recipe?

Luckly for me, I grow chickens :D I don't have to go out and buy the meat.
I first boil the meat, then I change the water, add vegetables (no garlic) like carrots, onions, peas, potatoes. When it's almost ready I add home made noodles :D It's delicious!

I don't know. It certainly doesn't scream "value" in any way, shape, or form to me...they would either sell or not sell.

Somehow I think they will sell. Not sure if they can compete with hot cakes, though. I have personally seen rubber toys made to look exactly like a piece of turd and they sell rather well. So why not a blob of fat?

I've always been told muscle weighs more than fat. Now I see why.

I'm confused by this statement. Are you saying this because the muscle looks denser than the fat, or are you mistaking the larger, yellow fat for the smaller red muscle?

And muscle doesn't weigh more than fat. That is an old saying that I wish we could put to rest. Five pounds of muscle and five pounds of fat are both "five pounds". The only difference, as the photo shows us, is that muscle, being denser, takes up way less space that the same amount of fat in weight.


All the best,
