CHICKEN $2 PER LB

HUNDREDS of  housewives jammed the First Choice Leading Chicken Depot at Saddle Road, San Juan, yesterday to grab the low price offer of $2 per pound for chicken.

In the local market, the price being paid for chicken is $4 per pound.
Owner of the First Choice Leading Chicken Depot, Kayim Ali, said, “before we opened at noon today, hundreds of people were jostling outside for position to get their supply. “We have an unlimited quantity in stock and could supply people from all over the country for days to come,” he said. He could not underestand why “the chicken war is taking place” and said that his company was being supplied by Super-Mix Poultry Farm, owned by “an entrepreneur who had tremendous stock willing to feed the nation.” What he wants to destroy is “any concept of a chicken war in the land because of some fancy by a few chicken farms,” Ali said.
