Anyone buys them? A store here sells them for 1.99 a pound, so I got a package... Two nice trimmed breasts, and the rest was just... half size breasts that were basically 90% fat.

WTF? Is that normal? I'm never buying those again...

    The last two bags I bought were Tyson chicken breast but they were from Costco. I didn't notice anything wrong with them.

    Call them or write to them and let them know! Just because they were inexpensive doesn't mean you don't have a right to expect some level of quality.

    Also write about the amount of chicken stock they soak them with for "flavor enhancement" aka "padding the weight" depending on the store, it can be up to 20%

    I sent them an email. I've never seen this before. I'm still pissed off about it! Now I don't have any leftovers for this week.

    If you use Twitter and FB posting there is effective also. I've gotten results reaching out to manufacturers on Twitter and FB.

    90% fat? I guess your pissed off they didn't trim all the fat off, little as it is.
