OK, I finally have to ask: as someone who has not been to Costco, what is the deal with their rotisserie chicken ? I always thought it’s the “1€ IKEA hot dog”: something that is “ok-ish”, but not really good, yet - due to it’s rock-bottom price - somewhat unavoidable when you shop there. But many people reference it. Is it something you are actually looking forward to, because [insert reason here] ? This is really curiosity, no judgement involved …

They admit it is a marketing tool, loss leader, a draw you in thing. My dad & wife get it often and say "they sure know how to do flavor". I'll take the carcass for stock.. But there are concerns for me about their envirnmental and other practices. Its is easy, super cheap, and websites abound wth how to parlay it into a week's worth of lunches and dinners.
