I love Costco chicken; the size is substantial, it’s well-seasoned (tastes like chicken hamonado) and cheap. Having said that, we only get it when do the occasional Costco trip like, what, every four or five months? For my everyday chicken needs, I purchase free-range or organic chicken online.
We’d usually get two, divvy it up into the parts we like and store what we don’t eat in the freezer. Do I check the ingredient list or the fine print? I don’t. It’s a goddamned rotisserie chicken for fuck’s sakes. Since we generally cook with whole foods, I’m not bothered by preservatives. What’s in our scope are the bad/refined carbs, sugar and saturated fats that are the villains in our lives.
I know that this legal shenanigan is in the US- how does it affect the chicken in other countries?- and that something like it is unlikely in New Zealand, but add it to the long list of triggering, outrageous stuff coming from the US will you?
A normal, sensible person would simply stop buying the damn things, but these fucking goddamned, most likely MAGA/MAHA CUNTS would rather use it to enrich themselves and deprive a whole lot of people access to cheap, healthy food in the process.
