Why is chicken bought from store more tender than the one from the country?

166 views

In my country, getting country chicken meat is really easy as there are many growers. That being said, we almost always buy from the store because my daughter can’t chew the country chicken meat – no matter if it is boiled, fried, roasted.

So goes the question: **Why is chicken meat bought from the store more tender than the one from the countryside?**

Typically they take a saline solution and inject it into the chicken to inflate it. It makes the chicken weigh more and also makes it more tender and some say tastier. You can get some of the same results by salt brining your more natural chicken.
