Once upon a time there was a girl who lived in a vegan household.
Her parents were vegan activists who despised anyone who ate meat of any kind.
Each night at dinner they would tell their daughter about how bad meat tasted and how cruel the agriculture industry was when treating animals.
As the years go by, she starts getting sick of eating the same old vegan products and wanted to experiment a bit but never had the guts to do anything.
Her friends one day invite her to go out for a day at the local shopping center.
They go around store to store window shopping, having a great time.
It’s coming around to lunch time and everyone is starving.
Her first friend goes up and orders a zinger box from KFC.
Her second friend orders chicken McNuggets from Maccas.
Her third friend gets a Bondi burger from Oporto.
She not wanting to really disappoint her parents went and got a vegan salad for lunch.
As they were eating all her friends were telling her how much they loved to eat chicken sharing their various chicken meals with each other.
They kept on trying to get her to try some.
She eventually fell into the peer pressure and tried 1 nugget.
The burst of flavour from the chicken rushes through her mouth.
"Why was it only now she was discovering this realm of flavour" she thought to herself
It was love at first bite.
She wanted more.
She then tries a bite of her friends Bondi burger.
It also blew her taste buds away.
This whole new avenue of flavours hitting her palate.
. She was then handed one of the wicked wings from her friend’s zinger box to try.
Even more flavours she had never tried before was hitting her tongue.
It was her night to cook dinner this week, so she decided she needed to get her parents to experience these flavours not caring that it's not vegan.
Maybe having a bit of meat to chew on might make them a bit less grumpy.
She asks all her friends what the best way is to cook some chicken for dinner.
Her friends were delighted that she also loved chicken as they all did.
They took her to the library next to the shopping center and got some recipe books.
They showed her all these recipes.
Chicken parmigiana, chicken Kiev, chicken burgers, chicken kebabs, buffalo wings, nuggets, chicken Caesar salads, satay chicken and roast chicken.
She ended up choosing to cook a Caesar salad since she has most of the ingredients back at home and could also sneak in some chicken without her parents not realising it's not a vegan meal
She just had to find the dressing and some chicken.
So, she goes back to the shops with her friends to get what she needed to cook dinner.
They first all go to Woolworths.
They get the Caesar dressing first.
Next the go to the cold meats section.
They walk up and down the aisle but there’s no chicken left.
“Alright no drama, I’m sure there would be some in Coles,” one of her friends says.
So, they buy the dressing and head to Coles.
They walk to the cold meats section and walk up and down the aisle but there is also no chicken left there.
“It’s fine there should be some left at the butcher,” another friend says.
So, they go to the butcher.
They ask the butcher there if he has any chicken in stock.
“Sorry girls, we are out of chicken for the day,” the butcher responds.
“Ok I’m sure Aldi would have some chicken left, right?” the last friend says.
They all head to Aldi.
As they enter, they see the cold meats section.
There is so much chicken.
There's chicken breast, chicken thigh, chicken wings, chicken drumsticks, whole chickens, half chickens, roast chickens, minced chicken, sliced chicken, and chicken sausages.
Surprised the girl says out loud
“Look at Aldi’s chickens!”

We are all so poorer for the loss of our dear friend Skischool
