The sale of frozen food is expected to be up a billion dollars by 2018 over its $22 billion in sales in 2013 after years of stagnation.[1] This is in part due to the new healthier options being introduced by frozen food companies. Since Hip Chick Farms chicken is low sodium, antibiotic free, gluten free, hormone free organic, with no fillers or additives, and from ethically raised chickens from locally sourced farms, they fit in this specialized food niche.[1][12] Chicken Nuggets at fast-food restaurants are often made with a blend of leftover meat, ground bones and additives that has recently been referred to as Pink Slime.[13] Interesting facts
