Frozen Chicken pieces
If you look on the bags of frozen, ready cooked chicken pieces in Iceland, Tesco and the like, why is it all from China? What's wrong with selling English chicken pieces?I buy a bag for my very elderley dog each week, and sometimes it also comes in handy to drop in a curry or casserole for quickness, but it puts me off when its all from China. Why do we have to import things that we have here already?

Re: Frozen Chicken pieces
I always check where stuff is from and, if possible, I stick to British products - I don't see why I should support other economies when our own needs propping up (so I tend to buy Manx first, English second, British third).I wouldn't buy Chinese poultry either - I've seen, on documentaries, how they keep their birds and that isn't nice but it's thought to be fine over there.

Re: Frozen Chicken pieces
It comes down to price. Look at just about anything you buy and you will see that it comes from / is manufactured in the far East. That doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with it.You can buy British food/goods if you like, but you may have to pay a little more.
