A while ago Wendy sent me to the grocery store for a few items. This is usually a dangerous thing because I buy random assortments. Fortunately, I do end up getting what Wendy has put on the list. Well, most of the time.
That night I was glancing through the meat section. I was visiting Kroger, for those keeping score at home. Kroger often has in store items that are close to the selling date, which they put on manager's special. This means they are price reduced. Those words rate on my top ten radar. We have found some pretty good deals. So I am perusing the isle looking for that special sticker. I found a few items that met my cheap price and taste bud. There was a package of turkey legs. It was on sale. I thought, well, why not? So I purchase it.
Fast forward a few days. I tell Wendy we have those turkey legs as we do our daily discussion of what we eat. We both veto the turkey a couple of times. Finally over the weekend I wear Wendy down and the turkey will be eaten for dinner. So I put the legs in the oven to cook. We pull them out. They look okay.
The turkey legs were pretty tough to eat. It was hard to get into the meat. It also was mainly fat and bone. Wendy said they sort of tasted like ham. It was not the greatest in the world. I told Wendy I could not imagine eating a turkey leg from the fair. I hate to throw away food, but I had to toss my piece. I had eaten some, but not much. I am glad that I had gotten it on sale.
To make us feel better we had some doughnuts, which we had bought on manager's choice.
