To refuse to eat Iceland chicken

I bought a bag of frozen sliced chicken because a friend said it was good for quick lunches on weight watchers. I tried it today and it is vile, it has a really odd soft consistency with almost a smooth texture. My husband would go mad if I threw out a big bag of chicken but I really don't think I can face feeding this to anyone let alone eating it myself Sad

You shouldn't have to eat something you don't like just to avoid upsetting your husband. Let him eat it if he is so concerned about waste.

I once bought their cook from frozen diced chicken breast, it was horrendous and I'm afraid I did bin it as I couldn't face eating it again!

No I'm not scared of my husband he would just mock me for buying such utter crap and then be irritated that I waisted £5 on it. I did try your give it you the cats but they turned their nose up at it which says it sll really. I think a friend with dogs will be getting a little visit very soon. Thanks everyone I was thinking I had gone mad but it really is the poorest excuse for chicken I have ever seen.

This kind of chicken tends to be imported from Thailand where it is processed and then transported to the uk in large vacuum packed slabs. It goes to 'chicken-based' restaurant chains, Chinese takeaways and to form products like the one you bought.

I kno rxactly the consistency you describe and it is indeed vile.

I suggest boxing it up and sending it to the orange one.

I tried it once, was vile. Tried feeding it to the dog who gave it a cautious sniff then moved away. Bin it.
