Household Ingredients Compared › Fresh chicken (Singapore)

Fresh chicken: what's actually in it?

Fresh chicken sold in Singapore supermarkets is a single-ingredient product: chicken. There is no ingredient list to compare, because there is nothing added — no water, no salt, no marinade, no preservative is printed on a fresh chicken pack. What differs between packs is the cut (whole, breast, thigh, drumstick, wing, leg), the type (broiler, kampong, French poulet) and the origin. This page records those three things as printed, and states plainly where there is no additive list because the product is a single ingredient. Marinated chicken is a different category (marinated-and-ready-to-cook-meat); frozen chicken is not covered here.

This page does not give a health score or a “best” pick. It shows the ingredient list as printed and flags what is in it.

The headline, in 30 seconds

Every pack on this page is one ingredient: chicken. If a fresh chicken pack listed anything else, that would be the story — none of the packs inventoried here does.
Most fresh chicken in Singapore comes from Malaysia as live birds, processed in Singapore: Leong Hup (which supplies FairPrice house brands) states its fresh chickens are processed from live chickens imported from farms in Malaysia accredited by the Singapore Food Agency, and FairPrice states its fresh Malaysia pork and chicken are delivered live daily and butchered in Singapore.
Kee Song (Sakura) and FarmFresh are the two named fresh-chicken brands at FairPrice, alongside FairPrice house-brand cuts. Kee Song is Halal; FarmFresh includes kampong chicken and French poulet (An Xin Chicken).
Kampong chicken is a different bird from broiler chicken — smaller, leaner, firmer — and is sold as a separate whole bird, not as a cut of broiler.

Panelled with verbatim lists: 10 products. Seen but not verified: 6 products (see list below). No prices are shown: they change weekly and would go stale. This site compares ingredients only, and gives no health score, ranking or “best” pick.

Scope note: fresh chicken has no ingredient list, because it is a single ingredient. The panelled table therefore records cut, type and origin as printed, and each card states plainly that there is no additive list. Do not read the absence of a list as a missing list — it is the correct statement for this product.

Seen but not verified — do not panel until checked

FarmFresh GG French Poulet Large (An Xin Chicken) — seen at FairPrice (1,300 g); origin and cut verified as a whole bird, but no ingredient/additive statement retrieved beyond the single-ingredient nature — listed here rather than panelled because its origin was not stated on the listing retrieved.
FarmFresh Chicken Mid Wings, Whole Wings, Leg (Boneless), Leg (Whole), Chicken Bone — seen at FairPrice; same single-ingredient position as the panelled cuts, but not separately panelled in this pass to keep the table to verified rows.
Kee Song Fresh Chicken — Wings (whole wings) — seen at FairPrice; same position as the panelled mid joint wings.
FairPrice house-brand (Pasar / Chef) fresh chicken cuts — Leong Hup states it supplies fresh chicken under FairPrice's Pasar and Chef brands; no separate pack-level origin statement was retrieved for those brands in this pass.
Organic / free-range fresh chicken, Seara fresh chicken — seen in Singapore retail coverage; no pack-level origin or cut list verified in this pass.
Frozen chicken, thawed chicken sold as fresh, and marinated chicken — out of scope for this page. Leong Hup notes it also processes frozen chickens into thawed products and marinated chicken; those are not fresh chicken and are not panelled here.

Nutrition — what the numbers say

All figures in the table are as sold, per 100 g unless a separate per-serving table says otherwise. Sugars are total sugars as printed, not added sugars, unless the source states added sugars separately. No official Singapore Nutri-Grade (A–D) was found printed on any of these listings in this pass, so none is quoted here; no grade has been assigned.

Salt and sodium: salt = sodium × 2.5. The table shows sodium as printed (in mg) with the salt equivalent in brackets. Sodium is not presented as salt, and salt is not presented as sodium.

Total vs added sugars: Singapore packs list total sugars, not added sugars. A total-sugars figure is never labelled here as “added sugar”. The ingredient list remains the evidence for added sugar (sugar, glucose syrup, invert sugar syrup) versus naturally occurring sugars (lactose in milk/cream).

Open Food Facts is a community database and is flagged as secondary where used: the pack and the retailer nutrition section take precedence if they disagree. Figures marked “not stated” were not in the source retrieved; they are not estimated, borrowed from another variant, or copied across flavours.

Per 100 g, as sold

Product	Energy	Protein	Total fat	Saturated fat	Carbohydrate	Sugars	Sodium (salt equiv.)
No product — no per-100 g panel was verified in this pass	not stated	not stated	not stated	not stated	not stated	not stated	not stated

Click a column header to sort. Rows marked “not stated” always sort last — a dash is missing data, not zero. Salt equivalent = sodium × 2.5, shown in brackets.

Seen but not verified (nutrition): no per-100 g nutrition panel was verified in this pass for any fresh chicken cut on this page. FairPrice does not publish a nutrition panel for its fresh chicken packs in the listings retrieved, and no per-100 g panel was taken from a generic database — generic chicken nutrition would describe a different bird, cut or preparation, not the pack on the shelf. The nutrition figures for fresh chicken therefore remain unverified until an SG pack panel is photographed. What can be said without a panel: the product is a single ingredient (chicken), with no added sugar, no added salt and no additives printed on any pack inventoried here; the nutritional difference between rows on this page is the cut (breast vs thigh vs wing, bone-in vs boneless, skin-on vs skinless), not a formulation difference.

How to read the label — the jargon, in plain English

Broiler chicken: A chicken bred and raised for meat, typically exported to Singapore at around 40 days old. The standard fresh chicken on Singapore shelves.
Kampong chicken: A village chicken — smaller, leaner and firmer than a broiler, with a stronger flavour. Sold whole, usually at a lower weight than a broiler.
French poulet: A premium whole chicken (here, An Xin Chicken under the FarmFresh GG label). A named premium bird, not a cut.
Portion-cut: A whole bird cut into pieces (2, 6, 10 or 14 pieces at FairPrice's cutting counter) before sale.
Halal: Certified halal slaughter and handling. Kee Song fresh chicken at FairPrice is listed as Halal.
Single ingredient: The whole product is chicken. There is no ingredient list to compare, because nothing has been added — the comparison on this page is cut, type and origin.

What this page is not

Not a health score, and not a “best” pick. The products on this page are different products, and this page does not rank them.
Not a taste test, and not a price comparison. Prices change weekly; ingredients change less often, but still change.
Not complete. The products in seen-but-not-verified are not yet panelled, for the verification reasons given, not hidden. Stock and formulations change, so no page claims permanent 100% completeness.

Sources and method

Checked 12 November 2026 from: FairPrice Singapore category and brand listings (Kee Song Fresh Chicken range: Whole, Boneless Breast, Thighs, Whole Leg, Mid Joint Wings, Wings, Kampong; FarmFresh range: Whole Chicken Large/Medium, Thigh, Drumstick, Leg Boneless, Mid Wings, Whole Wings, Kampong Whole Portion Cut, GG French Poulet); Leong Hup Food (lhfood.com.sg) on fresh vs frozen chicken and supply to FairPrice Pasar/Chef brands; Straits Times / AsiaOne 2022 reporting on Sakura (Kee Song) fresh Malaysian chickens. Cold Storage publishes no ingredient list on any product page, so its shelf could not be panelled from its site. Nutrition section added 12 November 2026: no per-100 g panel was verified for any cut, and none is borrowed from a generic database; the section states this plainly rather than presenting unverified numbers. Where a full pack list could not be verified, the product is in seen-but-not-verified instead of being panelled.
