  Rotisserie chicken is the chicken that was about to go bad. It’s loss prevention. A cheap Rotisserie chicken is more profitable than throwing an old chicken away.

    It isn’t a chicken that’s about to go bad, chickens that are for the rotisserie are smaller than the whole chickens that they sell raw. You pay less because it is a smaller chicken that has been cooked. The raw whole chicken is usually a higher weight than the rotisserie was before it was cooked.

    The smaller chicken is chosen to be cooked because people wouldn’t buy those smaller chickens raw since the are so small so they are a loss leader to get you in the store.

    It’s also a way to bring you into the store, particularly Costco and Sam’s Club. If they can get you in the door, they can entice you with impulse purchases. For me, it’s a good way to have a cheap, somewhat healthy meal when we don’t have much time, all while picking up some groceries.

    While I’m at it, bang bang shrimp is similar. It’s about to go bad or is of low quality, so put a really strong sauce on it and at least you can sell something vs. throw it out.

  I always figure they sell it at a loss on purpose to get you in through the door. Thinking you’ll come for the chicken and then buy something else

    I never thought groceries needed loss leaders like that. We need to go to buy food, and food is required to survive as a human, after all.

      yes, but they want you to go to THEIR store…not the competition.

      there’s always a loss leader

      Rotisserie Chickens are a weird kind of family staple for many Australian families.

      One chicken, one tub of coleslaw or a bag of salad and a 6 pack of breadrolls and you can feed a family of 4. It doesnt cost as much as takeaway.

  Rotisserie chicken isn’t the final form.

  You can turn left over rotisserie chicken into chicken soup.

  The chicken’s fate isn’t sealed until it is converted to poo.

    And you can turn poo into plants. And you can feed the plants to chickens.

    ITS THE CIIRRRCLLLLLLEEE

  Confirming that it’s either a loss leader or loss prevention. Depends on the store and management.

  Loss Leader

  I dunno, ii figured it’s mass produced due to the celery juice flavor (nitrite preservative) and is therefore benefiting from an economy of scale.

  The box could be anything. The box could even be a boat!
