Like Angler says, “he needs more cock in his mouth.”
white meat, dark meat with special sauce in his mouth, he needs it all.
One of the items that is in short supply right now is ….
Chicken.
“ The pandemic prompted poultry plants to reduce staff, and in turn, the need for comfort food when Americans stayed home had increased demand.
"We didn't have optimal chicken distribution. Some chicken was in some parts of the world that needed to be in other parts of the world. We just couldn't move it around," said Ben Kaplan, the CEO of TOP Agency, a network of marketing agencies.
Bad weather and power outages in major poultry-producing states like Texas and Arkansas only worsened the problem, according to the National Chicken Council.
Some experts say the surging demand for chicken started pre-pandemic.
Fast-food chains like McDonald's, known for its beefy Big Macs, reported that chicken is selling "beyond expectations."
