I keep seeing the ads for one of the companies who says they don't inject anything into their chicken, and I've heard that the bags of chicken breasts you buy at Costco/Sam's Club are injected with broth and salt water.
Does anyone really think it would make a noticable difference to buy the organic chicken breasts at the health food store or is it ok to keep getting the ones from the warehouse clubs?

depends how much u eat, if its a lot like everyone else then it might be too expensive, personally I buy from a butcher, I get a better deal because I do eat a lot and I always buy from him, maybe that's a better choice

If you can afford it, go for it. It's a 2.5x price difference here, unfortunately.

I suggest you buy some organic once and grill it for example. See what you think of the difference. The chicken I buy is on another planet taste-wise.
But come to think of it, I can't tell much if any (taste) difference between organic and free-range, which is a little bit cheaper.170 lbs @ 10%, 185 lbs by summer 2011

I buy in bulk from a butcher, freeze them and use them when I need, works out much cheaper

Same here, local butcher with chicken from local farms. Get a big case (with bone in and skin) every few weeks and he gives me a really good deal!Originally Posted by TeenBBer

if you eat the skin it might make a difference, but if chicken breasts are as big a staple of your diet as most people in the lifting community then it may not be worth it

The best tastin chickens are the freshly killed ones. You wont want em any other way when you have em like that. I don't ever buy chicken at a store. That stuff just aint good.
Dont waste your time!
