LoL! https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU0000FF1101 https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU0000FF1101 Current price/lb for chicken is $4.23. But of course that's from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, soooo.... can't trust that can we!
- philipkglass 1y agoThe parent comment said chicken legs, not chicken breast. That's this data series: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU0000706212 https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU0000706212 It's currently at $1.82/lb. Assuming that 30% of leg weight is inedible bone, it's more like $2.60 per pound of edible chicken.
