Alesia Cooper, a mother from Irving, Texas, recently posted a surprising photo of chicken breasts she bought for dinner. When she began preparing the meal, the chicken shredded into thin, spaghetti-like strands, leaving her puzzled and seeking answers.
“I wasn’t sure about posting this, but since I had to see it, so do all of you,” she wrote alongside the photo she shared on March 21.
Cooper explained, “I was making dinner for my kids a few weeks ago, and after cleaning the meat like I always do, it ended up looking like this.” She noted that the chicken came from Aldi and humorously added, “I think it’s fake meat, but I’m not sure… I haven’t made boneless chicken since.”
The post quickly gathered attention, with commenters weighing in with their theories and concerns.
One commenter suggested, “That’s lab-grown chicken. It’s a new method because of bird flu and resource shortages. Last year, they announced they could make chicken in a lab, and that’s what’s in stores now.”
Another user chimed in, “It’s fake. I don’t buy it anymore.”
Others dismissed the lab-grown theory, pointing instead to the use of growth hormones. “It’s not lab-grown or 3D-printed meat. It’s real chicken, but producers use growth hormones to make them grow too fast,” someone explained.
Reports have highlighted similar issues, noting that chemicals and breeding techniques can lead to these abnormalities in chicken. Dr. Massimiliano Petracci, a professor of agriculture and food science in Italy, confirmed that fast-growing birds often exhibit these issues.
Historically, it took chickens 112 days to reach 2.5 pounds, but now, due to modern breeding methods, they can reach an average of 5 pounds in just 47 days.
Dr. Michael Lilburn, a professor at Ohio State University’s Poultry Research Center, pointed out that the growing demand for chicken products like nuggets and sandwiches is driving these changes. “If people keep eating more chicken, the chickens will likely need to get even bigger… and we’ll need to increase the amount of breast meat per bird.”
He added, “Most Americans don’t care where their food comes from as long as it’s cheap, but a small, vocal group is raising important questions.”
With growing concerns over food quality, it’s crucial to be mindful of what we consume, both for our health and the health of our families.
