As opposed to the breast meat, the frozen bullets do have a higher fat content because they are made with dark meat. But after I cook it, I rinse it in my colander to rinse off the extra grease. I honestly cannot taste a difference. Hal says he can, but I really don't think so. I've passed it off as ground beef to my extended family several times when we've had them over for dinner...no one has ever been the wiser. I use it in spaghetti, chili, meat loaf, and anywhere else I'd normally use beef. I love the price!!! Hee hee!!<br><br>Love, MelMelissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12800575676094193728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1737380342009923011.post-15635385186183967092008-07-05T13:04:00.000-07:002008-07-05T13:04:00.000-07:00Cool!

I didn't realize it was cheaper! I wonder how the Hillbilly Housewife recipes would fair with it. Hmmm...<br><br>Totally relate to your pantry experience. Isn't it ridiculous? That's why I'm testing out my menu makeover plan to see which way I spend less. So far, it's leaning toward not couponing. But we have absolutely no snacky-type stuff in the house. I know Rhett has been dying this week being home.<br>P.S. You probably would have bought the stuff even if you'd looked at the dates. I always convince myself that I'll become this gourmet chef and use it all before it expires.

Your blog has inspired me to do so. Plus I discovered something yesterday that will make turkey cooking easier. I don't know why I didn't think of it before (slaps forehead) LOL My experience with Turkey has been limited. i do remember I couldn't get the crumbles to break up small enough for my tastes. Last night I was cooking ground beef and remembered to try something I had been thinking about but not done yet. I used the wire potato masher and it broke the ground beef up into small bits which is what I wanted. I can't wait to try it with Turkey.Swansonghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15160136199959601329noreply@blogger.com
