At times chicken and rice seemed to be the only fare on offer during our South American trip. We tired of it, but the chicken shop signs never lost their allure!

Wondering Woman 
I’ve heard it said that an alien observing Earth from space might conclude that chickens are a dominant species, because they live everywhere that humans do. Makes you wonder…

That is quite a mind-boggling thought!

As a vegetarian I do wonder what makes chicken so special. 🙂

I think chicken used to be something special – a real treat (in England at least) but now I think everyone buys it because it’s cheap meat.

They do look so illogically happy for someone who’ll just be eaten soon 🙂

That’s what I always think when I see smiling cows and pigs (pics and ornaments!) in butcher shops.

That’s a pretty good collection of chicken signage. I stopped eating chicken years back when I found out that most chickens are pumped with antibiotics and other crap that we then ingest. I was also put off by the fact that they usually (in the States) live in awful conditions and have miserable lives before they are slaughtered. I just couldn’t eat them anymore.
And strangely it was the one meat that I really cooked well.. I had so many delicious chicken recipes from Moroccan olive lemon to grape chicken to honey/mustard/orange flavor.
But I’m done with eating birds…:)

I know how you feel. Shame you had such great sounding recipes. I almost never eat chicken. I don’t eat much meat at all, but in Bolivia, Peru, and Ecuador it seemed to be served up at every meal. Sometimes I just gave in. There was infinitely more variety in the signs!
