Roast chooks are so expensive these days. I swear just a few years ago they were much cheaper. Except the Costco one they are all $12-$13.50! I'm not going all the way to Costco for a chicken in a bag, though. I guess they lost their loss leader status.
Local charcoal chook might cost twice as much, but maybe twice as big. And you can get chips with chicken salt there. Paid $10.50 for a 1/4 + chips today.
KFC probably about sparrow size, and makes you feel queasy after. With soggy chips. And will cost you at least twice as much.
Roast chook even at $15 will get you at least a couple of meals. I'm impressed that the supermarket chooks stay moist in the fridge. Though that makes me
wonder...pumped full of something??

Imagine getting paid to rate cooked chicken from bags.

What? This is hard hitting journalism.

Things like this are a guilty pleasure to read. There’s only so much death and destruction one can handle when skimming through the daily news.

Honestly I get a kick out of stuff like this, also practical. I had no idea there were so many types coming of the rotisserie.

There's only one type to me, and that is "whichever is marked down for quick sale".

What time of day did he buy the chicken? What was the control chicken like?
I interested but like... Cmon.

The journalist loves to know that more thorough study is needed

I know, right.
They're living the dream!
Better than this guy's job, for sure.

I remember when they used to go for $8. These days I usually just wait till they're marked down to $5 or less.

You can achieve the same at home if you inject the marinade which is what I expect they do

"Bachelor's Handbag" is a great piece of Australian slang.
