Hey, I am trying to eat around 4 chicken breast's per day. The local store usually only has 2lb packages which is 3 or 4. Is this just the way it is? Should I just plan on daily trips to the store.. or where can I go to stock up.
Can someone who buys/cooks/eats chicken breasts on a regular basis tell me the best deal they have found. I want to have some stuff stocked up in the fridge / freezer to make when i'm ready to eat. The small packages last 1 day and once it's gone its easy to try and substitute something else, but I don't want to eat anything else because it's not part of my program.
I have Bloom, Giant, Shoppers Food Warehouse, and Cosco to choose from. If you have a store like these nearby you buy from, let me know what is the best atm.
Also... the bulk frozen boneless chicken breast, are they just as good as the fresh cut ones that are unfrozen?
Thanks.

I got a bag of 27 servings of 4oz chicken breasts individually wrapped from costco for 15$. But it wasn't in 27 packages some are 4oz and some are 6oz packages.

Try a local butcher. Usually better quality and sometimes you find a bargain.

Sams is pretty much the same as Costco but I get mine there. They come frozen in 5oz portion. 10 LBS for like 20 bucks. Hardly any fat on em too. Not like the ones you get at the store where you gotta trim half of the thing up.

I can't make any positive contributions to this thread because I'm from Australia but I thought I would say that I get all of my skinless chicken breasts and any other meat I want for free.
How you may ask?
My parents own a butcher shop
