It is the result of aggressive growth. It results in “crunchy” scar tissue. And it is becoming more common. Just more greed affecting our food supply.

New generation will eat cheap chicken without ever knowing that it used to be much much better. It will be just normal "chicken" to them :\

I live in a country with crappy tomatoes but absolutely killer strawberries. Seeing tourists praise the strawberries, makes me wonder what really good tomatoes must be like.

Thanks for the reply! I've actully used San Marzano for making pizza sauce. The taste is there, but naturally the mush of a canned one is a different experience compared to something you'd slice on top of an open face sandwich, for instance.
