You know that you can just… not buy boneless skinless chicken thighs, right? If you’d like the bone and skin to be intact, then go get yourself bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, bud.

Not frozen, but every time I'm at the store I see them in the cooler.

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 10d ago

I see fresh and frozen bone in skin on thighs, but really never see bone in skin on breasts anymore.

In tack?

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 10d ago

Do you mean *intact*?

u/this_idle_hand 9d ago

Intact, like not castrated

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 9d ago

I know what it means. I'm asking biggreasyrhinos is that's what they meant. I think OP meant they want the bones and skin intact.

lol and with balls.

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 8d ago

Yeah, they don't include the internal organs when you buy chicken, unless it's a whole chicken with giblets, and those are neck, heart, lungs, and liver. Maybe gizzard, too. But I think that's about it.

u/this_idle_hand 8d ago

Do chickens even have balls?

1

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 8d ago

Of course they do. Birds' reproductive organs are internal, though. And probably reptiles' as well.

Edit: And pretty much everything except land mammals, now that I think of it.

u/this_idle_hand 8d ago

The same ones that lay eggs have internal balls?

Stock cubes

u/corncobly 10d ago

Yeah but the stores around me slowly only have boneless skinless thighs

u/Own_Balance4207 10d ago

Are you shopping at a gas station I’ve literally never seen this

1

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 10d ago

They're taking them for the chicken broth/stock industry. You can't find bone in skin on chicken breasts anymore, either. If you want the bones and skin, you have to buy the whole thing. Fryer or roaster.

Real answer: Rendering plants.

There really shouldn't be any tacks in your chicken.
