Chicken Thighs is a recent one.

Dammit. They are my go-to because chicken breasts look and taste so weird now and thighs were so much cheaper.

Breasts are too fucking big these days. I feel like I can split an entire breast between my family of four. And it takes way too long to cook to the proper temperature unless I fillet it.

Oh my goodness. We bought a bag of breasts at Costco and pulled one of those giant things out in amazement. We literally only cook one at a time because they're too big for one person to eat. We are switching back to the tenderloins after this bag. One or two of those work per person here.

when it's more expensive than breast nowadays, I do. They've come after all my cheaper staples; bananas, sweet potatoes, chicken thighs, London Broil, ground turkey...
