If a post can be taken in a negative manner I give the person the benefit of the doubt. We're all supposed to be friends on here and with people being from different walks of life there are always going to be misunderstandings which are only going to be made worse by looking at them negatively.

Crikey bit heated in here
BTW, Tesco have half-price Lakeland chicken breasts for £2.99 - get it while it lasts I quite like things like chicken pie that use the whole chicken though, can get some great deals on reduced whole chickens, made this at the weekend and it fed 4 hungry lads very well indeed, nomnomnom http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/3...n-and-leek-pie

I have bit my tongue and not said anything in here as I don't think I have said anything wrong, I am sorry if people have taken offence, but that isn't how it was meant.
It looks like I am not the only one who doesn't think that Chicken is a luxury, mearly a staple food, so I think it is just a matter of opinion and different people see it from different sides. Vix she has talked to me, if that is what you can call it. She didn't want to listen to what I meant to say and prefered to say what a lovely person I am I have tryed my best to show that it is merely an opinion that chicken isn't a luxury and that other things like going out and having alcohol is a luxury to me, but nevermind. P.S Leo, it's Jaime |

I remember a time when I considered anything other than 8p noodles & beans on toast to be a luxury so I can see why it would grate to think someone is doubting that (some cheeky bastard called me a pauper when I told him :/) but honestly pheebs, I don't think Tink meant anything by it, it was just her explaining that she's never thought of it as a luxury, rather other things are, but not that you shouldn't

I have to say that I completely understand why Pheebs could have taken that negatively. I think it was the intonation of being so stupefied at the concept of high quality meat being a luxury that came across badly. Had Pheebs said low quality runt-chicken, then I'd probably have thought that Clare was being silly to react that way - but we're not.
But anyway, all has been said about it that needs to. People have different priorities and where people can people prefer to buy good quality meats, some go without as a compromise, and some are happy to buy the cheaper meats - everyone has their balance and priority/cut off. For me it's good quality meet at the sake of other things... for Clare it's not going down to the common denominator and buy inferior meat for moral and personal reasons - it's perfectly valid, and as such can't afford the luxury of high quality chicken so has gone without. High quality foods will always be a luxury - that's why lots of people go to iceland

*sigh*
More on my plate (haw haw) to worry about than silly quarrels like this. I find it insulting, some others agree, some don't. I've said my opinion, others have said there's, I'm seeing circles being run sooo there's no point in continuing this. Back to chicken... Rich - that does sound cheap! Wicked stuff! |

So I hear... but if you want high quality beef, then you know where to call for a bit of pork, don't be chicken, and I won't boar you.
