    And here I wish they cut them in half. A half turkey is a much better size for 4 or fewer people.

        I found that the meat to fat/bone ratio on Turkey was worse than Chicken. Always have so much waste when preparing Turkey the money just didn’t make it worth it.

          It’s because they’re older animals when they are slaughtered, so more of the meat has turned to sinew and tendons and more of the cartilage has turned to bone.

        Turkey can feed more people, cheaper, and I make so many chickens I could use a change

              You specifically said you like turkey because it feeds more people, yet a whole turkey is apparently too big and you want half of one. Make up your mind man.

                Wow, still going? If you really need it:

                HALF Turkey can feed more people, cheaper, and I make so many chickens I could use a change.

                Seriously this isn’t hard.

                  A half turkey isn’t going to feed more people than a reasonably large chicken. They aren’t that big lmao. Cheaper maybe, but turkey isn’t as nice as chicken to begin with. I get wanting a change though. Also if you raise chickens then surely that’s the cheapest option?

                  Honestly though if you want half a turkey just save the other half for later. Make a curry or something, idk.

                    Yeah something told me that you coming back a week later means you wouldn’t be able to let it go when you finally realized you can’t follow the conversation. Ciao.

                    lol at him downvoting.

          I misread your sentence about “change” and I started to think of how various sizes of poultry could be used as monetary currency. Like:

          It’ll cost you 2 turkeys.

          You got change for 3 chickens?

          Here’s a Cornish hen in change. Good luck with your pack of Yu-Gi-Oh cards.
