Yes, they have fresh Empire chicken at Trader Joe's in the Boston area
as well. The ones in the Boston area are not stored cold enough,
though, so I would only buy it if I was going to cook it that day, if that.
They used to sell frozen Empire chicken in the huge bags, but upgraded to
fresh, but it would have been better if they stayed with frozen.

When you are talking to people at the stores, point out that Empire
chicken was named the #1 best tasting chicken by Cook's Illustrated (or
one of the top 2, I don't remember) and that many non-kosher cookbook
authors like Mark Bittman request that their readers use kosher chicken.
