        I didn’t know they sold it for this cheap. But does that price include taxes ? Still a little pricey IMO, but tolerable (only if taxes are included).

        Yeah… American prices haven’t caught up with the rest of the world yet. As much as Trump has done to destroy your economy you’re still not paying anywhere near the price of things elsewhere. Going to take more loss of power for the US dollar for things to align.

        But, I’ll bet that’s still cheaper than a whole chicken, raw… Right?

          Yeah they’re cheaper than raw chickens. The store tends to buy too much chicken and some expires and would have to be thrown out… Or they can roast it right away. It’s kind of a famous economic parable at this point.

          Also, it sounds like Trump is just destroying our economy less than your guys are lmao.

          Exactly what I though. Good luck trying to find a whole entire chicken for 6.45€ anywhere in the EU ; last time I checked LIDL, the cheapest they had was a little over 10€

      $13.99 is a very high price for something that gets you 2 days worth of meal tops. Maybe I’m just a cheapskate though ?
