I really do appologize for this; my fourth web log post.


I saw a frozen chicken in the freezer section of a grocery store once. The label on this chicken stated in bold yellow letters directly below the brand name that “giblets may be missing”. That’s fun; it’s like a game. “Yea! You got the giblets! You...win?”

Are people buying this and not caring about it’s contents? I figure before you buy some poultry with or sans giblets, you either have or do not have plans for said giblets. Are people grabbing it in the store and standing there for a second, saying a little prayer for giblets in their head before they commit to their purchase and place it in their cart?

And why doesn’t the company who process the chickens know what’s in them? “Well, we have this very interesting piece of equipment right here. This is our Randomized Chicken Gutting Machine. It will, at random intervals, reach down to our conveyor belt and yank the innards out of any poultry that happens to be passing by. We used to just have the chickens rolling down this conveyor belt at high speeds and our blindfolded workers would gut any chickens that they could grab. But no more! Now we have this glorious marvel of the machine age. I’nt technology grand."

They should also sell bags of giblets that say, “May be surrounded by a complete chicken”. Then you could buy one of each and try to reunite a chicken carcass with it’s guts. You could match the serial numbers or something.

That is all.
