The new packaging might be environmentally friendly but the chicken is not as good. Chicken seems to be not as tender, lots of skin and fat included in the bags. You can't see what you are getting til you open at home. Portion sizes vary more from the previous packaging and approximately same weight overall.

The "New Chicken Thighs" are absolutely horrible. First the packaging. You can't see what you are buying so you have no idea as far as looks of the chicken or the number of thighs you are buying. I like to meal prep so seeing the size of the thighs and quantity is very important to me. Next the quality is very bad. Sizes vary greatly from small to large, there is a lot of excess skin ( A LOT), there was feathers on several pieces as well as bone fragments, and they are irregular in cut. I have bought chicken from Sam's for years and it has always been great quality. The new chicken is very bad and I will no longer purchase chicken from Sam's Club as a result.

I like the quality and flavor of the chicken thighs. But, I HATE the new packaging. There’s no way to tell what size or how many thighs are in each pre-packed section. So, I end up having to open up the entire package to find the right size and number for the recipe that I’m making. Then re-package the rest of the thighs. With the old packaging (a foam tray covered in plastic) it was much easier to judge the size and number of thighs in the package.

No. You couldn't beat Sam's for chicken price and quality before, but I hate the new product. It's an absolute pain in the butt. You raised the price and decreased the quality. It is most definitely not the "same great product". Very irregular. The chicken is all squished and mangled, and not presentable on the plate. You can't see what's in the pack when you buy it. Inconvenient portioning. What recipe calls for 2/3 of a lb? Or 1.3 lbs? You didn't know how much chicken i want at any given time, but it's pretty much guaranteed not to be whatever you picked. So i still have to repack it before putting it away, only now I've gotta wrestle with 4 different packages to do the same task. Bring back the trays and bulk packaging. I'm buying my chicken elsewhere for now.

Not impressed with the new packaging of Sam's breasts and thighs. It is 4 single packages in one big vacuum sealed package. The breasts and thighs are haphazardly divided into 4 seemingly equal packages. They don't always end up that way. My latest purchase of thighs had one package with only 3 thighs in it and another with 5 thighs in it. Makes it hard to plan how many packages will be needed for a meal with a set amount of people. Also, the plastic has so much printing and color on the outside of the package making it hard to visually see inside. I will not be purchasing my chicken breasts and thighs from Sam's in the future. My local Winco has better packaging and just as good of quality and about the same price as Sam's, sometimes even lower.

There's no telling whether you will get 3 or 4 in each pack, and the cuts are entirely different so the sizes are very uneven (by a large margin). Some have skin, some are missing skin. Some have bones sticking out where meat should be, like they were chewed off of the animal rather than skillfully cut. Previously purchased Sam's chicken thighs and wings on the foam trays and was always very happy with the quality of the product received, but as of about a month ago it seems these are the replacement as the original packaging is no longer available. I will not be buying these chicken options from Sam's any longer.

Do not like the new packing. You can't see what you are buying. When the chicken was in trays you could see the chicken and make a choice. Last chicken I bought was not so good (Butchering) The package is so to be able to split apart, good idea but it does work. You end opening both haves of the packages

Sam's switch to this product a few months ago. Is not an improvement. The contents are variable in size, larger and smaller thighs, and often include small pieces I assume to make stated weight. Although repackaging is not necessary for storage to freezer, there are some negative issues. There are perforations between the sections, but if you try to tear them the tear does not follow the perforations ripping into the package, which then requires immediate use, or repackaging. Nothing wrong, however, with the taste or actual quality of the chicken.

This new product and packaging is the worst!! The thighs are small if you actually get a whole one. The rest of them are cut or broken pieces of thighs! I buy in bulk for a reason and having to open these individual packages is a waste of my time. Will definitely be looking for a better supplier to buy my cases of thighs from every month!

These are an awesome buy. Four individual vac sealed packets that contain on average four thighs per individual packet. If I don’t use them I like to unfold the packets flat and freeze. It makes it easy for me to choose to make a few or a whole bunch. Thighs themselves are big and meaty. We love them on the grill
