The portion is much smaller than I expected. I thought I could eat it for two meals, but it looks like it will be gone in one sitting.
weee.10143697
I didn't notice its weight; it really is mini.
My boyfriend is Jimin
Buy duck breast instead of a whole duck so the family won’t fight for meat
Kewalee
Nice! Can't wait to cook it
Mitzi
Very good quality breast. My only advice is, you will probably want two breasts per person. I don't eat much and even one breast felt like I could use a bit more to eat. So tender and juicy though!

Consistent quality, reasonable price, and easy to prepare! Thank you!
