Are you the one that sends the frozen-packaged chickens to our store with a sticker that says, "Grown in Arkansas?"

nope - thats not our job - we debone it, weigh it, and then return to Tyson for further processing.

I mostly QC breast meat for bones, skin, excess fat, etc. I basically make sure that the only thing going into the 75 lb lug is only breastmeat.

Tyson does the final processing, seasoning, cooking, and final consumer packaging.

BTW - depending on what your packaging says I can tell you which plant deboned and processed it.

If it is Purdue, Pilgrim's Pride, or Dutch Quality House - it likely came from Wayne Farms.

If it is Tyson theres an offhand chance it went through Petit Jean Poultry either our plant or Arkadelphia.
 
If I knew how to 'mark' a package to see if it got to your store without violating USDA regs then I would do so to see if our chicken is ending up in Seattle.

Yeah, but we have two processing plants in this town. One is Wayne Farms (4th largest poultry processor in the US)

And PJP which subcontracts to Tyson for deboning frozen front halves. (meaning the legs are cut off from the whole bird and we get and debone everything from the breast up minus the head and evisceration)

Wayne Farms is a full slaughter-debone operation. And they do whole birds.

Yay! I am not working today and wont be for the next 2 weeks. I do have to go to a workshop all day on Wednesday. :pissed:

Relax today..my deaf brother is coming over and we may take the kids and the dog for a walk on a trial leading to airport park where my son can watch the planes land/take off.

Tmw, I think I am babysitting 2 other kids, eye appt for new glasses, and then go to my bro's apt.

Wed, go to the workshop and then my bro, my son and I will head on to Ocean City after the workshop to stay with friends until Sat.

Come back on Sat and then just REST and relax for a whole week before returning to work on the 18th. :(

I would like one more week off but I'll live.
