I just bought a pack of frozen chicken breasts in Makro. When I opened the pack I found that the chicken breasts are frozen together as one large slab. I will have to thaw them, separate them and refreeze them, so I might as well just buy fresh ones and freeze them. When I buy frozen chicken breasts in the UK, they are separate inside the pack, not individually wrapped, but loose so that you can take out one or two as required.

Does anyone know if this style is available in Thailand?

Buy fresh ones and freeze them yourself. There's no way to tell. how many times they have been defrosted and refrozen in the packaging and delivery process

Sadly here I am dubious as to how fresh the "Fresh" ones are.

I know that mine are fresh, they're running aroung outside now, but see your point!

Not the same freezing system used here........... UK for years has used the Blast Freezing system, instant freezing = no time for any item to stick together

Edit: just did quick search http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_freezing
