Previously an image of a Chicken product with a label of $72.27 for a 3.212KG chicken went viral as the price is staggering.
Many netizens started to comment and relate the price of the chicken to the Malaysia chicken export ban.
However, NTUC Fairprice updated its Facebook page moments ago and clarify the pricing of the product.
Here is what NTUC said:
[CLARIFICATION] We are aware of a photograph being shared of a price label for “SB Whole Chicken” affixed on Swiss Butchery-branded packaging.
The image of the product label is of an organic kampung chicken sold at one of our concessionaire counters operated by Swiss Butchery. This product is priced at $22.50/kg (per the label’s packed date on 31 May 2022), and the product label also showed the product weight of over 3kg as 2 whole birds were packed together, weighed and priced under the same label.
We hope this helps to dispel any possible misunderstanding this image may have caused.
