Ani, I have a cousin that works at Harris Teeter on Prosperity Church Road near Huntersville...I'll ask him if they stock them.
I know we have them here in the Seattle area, as I just bought two of them last week...
Awwwww - thank you, SR!!! Well, DH ran in to HT and Food Lion yesterday, and neither had turkey breasts!!!
You know what - DH thinks it is what BillyC said. He thinks it is b/c they are being ground up into turkey meat, wh/ sells more per pound!!!
Maybe I need to talk to the guys behind the meat counter and ask them if they get in turkey breasts and grind them - and if they are doing that - find out when they get their shipments and how much they would sell some to me for.
The rest have been ground up, chopped up, cubified, nuggified, gravified and jerkified. Turned into shaved, thin sliced, thick sliced and loaf. Smoked, roasted, fried or broasted; baked ,broiled, boiled, foiled....(foiled...oh well it rymmed) At some point probably mixed with mechanically seperated partially defatted fatty tissue. Packed, stacked, racked and smacked right on the grocer's shelves. That's were it's at.
Dang it, I can't rep you again - that is soooo true and soooo funny! I particularly liked the nuggified and foiled - yes you can foil a turkey!
But yes, some grocery stores, I have noticed, are skimpy on the turkey selection. For instance - at Food 4 Less around here about the only turkey you can get is the turkey sausages and ground turkey (and not the ground breast, mind you). I think it depends on where the grocery store is located and the clientele they see most often. Maybe they stopped stocking fresh breasts in your store because they were throwing them away instead of selling them....and the Tyson bagged, mechanically separated, chopped, minced, pressed, breaded, fried, frozen and regurgitated dinosaur shaped wonder nuggets were flying off the shelves....
Well this has me stumped. I am gonna ask the manager at my local grocery store. We never see them and it is so odd since this is a big turkey growing state.
You may have to shake your fist at them and say "look here, get me some turkey breast in here or I'm gonna put a knot upside your head". LOL j/k
