That's like free-range chicken vs. cooped-up (bad pun) chicken: the free-range tastes better and is probably healthier than the juiced chickens...

When I get chicken at Mitsuwa....I like the free-range chicken. It DOES taste better, the color is totally different, and it's actually smaller in size vis-a-vis the regular birdies.

Of course I'm taking about trays of chicken parts....thighs, de-boned legs, breasts, wings, etc.

Hey thanks for the info on VitalChoice... I have found myself eating more salmon over tuna the last couple of years for the omega-3s... :)

You'll see it's a brand recommended by many notable doctors as well. I dunno I am by no means an expert but I think wild salmon is probably the safest, most Omega-3 abundant fish out there.

Yup...gotta love it. And because of the high oil content it's nearly impossible to overcook...it's made for novice cooks such as myself. :beaten:

Anyone tried to cook nattou? The cooking really helps release the smell, captive of the nattou bean. It makes cooking curry smells like febreeze. :sweat:

I should get evicted soon. :hehe: :beaten:
