I work at Costco and make the rotisserie chickens and the bags are atrocious and horrible. I really hope they change back to the tray and lid. Please complain to corporate or whoever you need to complain to, to allow them to change back to the tray and lid.
The chickens in Costco Sheffield UK. Are just warmed up they are certainly not what most people would call cooked. We used to get one most weeks but not anymore. They are about as pail as you can get without not putting them in an oven.
@@andrewbarnard667 the Kirkland chickens cook great, it’s the Foster Farms chickens, when coming out of the oven, look like they are not cooked. I don’t know why, just is! I don’t know if Costco supplies the chickens in the UK, but here in the states, I hate cooking FF chickens.
@JimiJamma all I know is ever since they started coming out very pale colour the meat was often crunchy. Definitely not cooked. When it was cut you could feel the difference. Shame because we had one most weeks but I've not had one for probably 4 or 5 years. Must have cost them a fortune in other products we haven't bought because I've not popped in for a half dead chicken.
same man, i’ve been telling my manager the same stuff. it’s absolutely horrible with the bags especially on the weekends if you can’t keep enough in the case ur screwed
I suspect it hasn’t occurred to him that they may have been scanned back in the kitchen. Having worked in a grocery store, scanners are used everywhere in a store.
@@gibbo822hot food in a plastic bag... What happens when you light plastic on fire? Chemicals.... But yes keep believing it's "better".... Let alone why would hot food also have holes in it to make it cold.... It's called hot food for a reason
@@Eric-jk3oi Yes, I did not see this from the point of view of the other customers! I see your point but I still find those videos funny. Just can't resist laughing when I see him.
@@sdot5389 dump out the liquid before you refrigerate. When I get the chicken home I take out the entire thing and place in air fryer for 5+ min to get the skin crispy. I dump out the juices and rinse the container. I personally don't keep the container just this keeps that jelly from forming at the bottom.
I work at costco and people like this will stop every employee that walks near them to complain about their inconvenience like its something we can change just for them
I’m guessing you could get 100 of those containers from some Chinese drop shipping program for like 30 cents each but instead he’s gonna pay 5.99 and probably waste a whole chicken, I admire this man
@@user-pinckneysux the bags hold the moisture that's not needed from the heat condensing inside the bag… making for soggy chicken instead of the perfectly roasted chicken that comes in the containers with air holes to avoid condensation.
he done spend 50 dollar for 10 dollar of containers! This old guy is a real fruit loop! wouldn't it make sense to just go buy some containers with out the chickens? lol
god bless this man i’ve been listening to this clip for a while now and im high af and in tears laughing 😂 like is dude gonna unbag his chicken at the store and put it in the container he brought from home?! like just right there do the swap😂😂😂
He isn't the problem. The store switching to bags is. You want to drag your chicken home all mashed up because the bag doesn't give any protection? Use your head for something other than a hat rack.
I can't really explain the difference between a plastic box and a plastic bag but cooked chicken in a bag just seems so wrong. Next thing you know we'll be drinking soda from a bag.
He is definitely a gardener! The perfect container to start seedlings right before spring when it’s still cold. It gives them protection from direct cold and frost. Preferably early crops like cabbage,kale,lettuce and so on. It’s the time where the white moth aren’t out yet to lay eggs that hatch into little green caterpillars and chew the hell out of your plants 😊
This customer is right about the bags. I bought a Costco chicken in a bag about three weeks ago and it tasted different. If given the choice, I’d want my chicken in a container vs a bag.
I saw this guy 2 weeks ago at costco here in van nuys california he was behind me at the cash register and he started making a scene yelling DO NOOOOT SCAN MY ROTISERIE CHICKEN JUST SCAN MY SHIRT😂😂😂 hIS WILD
My mom buys extra and then put some in the freezer, then she puts it frozen onto a dish and into the oven on 200° for 4 hours. It comes out even better than fresh out of the store! You would think that it sounds like it would be horrible but it comes out gold and brown and fantastic! Now my sisters, my mom and I all do the same thing. Try it. You'll be shocked! I certainly was
But is it worth it when you can cook your own chicken with your own flavor. I know it's good and super healthy for 5 bucks. No other food in history sell healthy hot food that cheap specially when we live in inflation.
All the major supermarkets in Australia have been using sealed plastic bags for at least as long as I've been here, over a decade! In Ireland, we've always used paper/foil packs!
Born and raised here in Australia and don't remember anything other than the foil lined paper bags. I'd rather that than a huge plastic container, much easier to store in the fridge for one thing
America used the most fuel in the world. So when producing crude oil to gas, the waste byproduct is plastic. So plastic containers is rather cheap. But plastic bag is even cheaper than containers and both is still environmentally harmful.
@@mattds846What’s funny is that through breeding we have made chickens that grow very fast, look up broiler chickens. No need for hormones or anything else still I wonder what are potential effects of eating then long term.
To be honest, a whole chicken for $5 is a helluva deal. We used one this week to shred the breast and tenderloins for meals, grilled the thighs and drumsticks for a dinner and then ate the wings as a snack. $5 chicken prepared eight meals.
I looked LED up for chickens, and apparently if there are led lights used in the chicken houses the chickens grow and live better. But regardless, Costco chickens are injected with a very high amount of sodium before they are cooked at Costco, so not the healthiest choice
Someone tell Marty that the Doc is at Costco buying containers with chicken in them. How are we supposed to get Back to the Future now? 😂 Dude drove 88 mph and teleported to future costco.😂
Doesn’t like LED on his food, but will beam it straight at his vital organs. Also doesn’t mind keeping food in plastic, and would prefer the plastic over paper bags. Right. This man is totally grounded in reality.
I've seen this guy before. He demands the cashier scan his shirt for the number of chickens in his basket because he doesn't want "LEDs on his chickens".
The bag is easier It's a Ziploc it's got a handle and you don't have to have all that plastic in your recycling bucket. Einstein's grandson is really went off his rocker 🤣
I worked in Hot Delicatessen counter and there’s no difference between foiled bags or a plastic container. A foiled bag will keep it hot for a long period of time and also contain the liquid in the bag as well
Lmao what does it matter the containers are changing, it's not like he can bring those containers back and tell them to put the chickens in the containers instead of bags 😂😂😂
The US military commissary switched to "bags" for rotisserie chicken years ago. These bags use less plastic, and has less impact on landfill waste. If the old guy likes the more sturdy domed plastic containers (for rotisserie chicken), he can actually just buy those from an online restaurant supply store--a case of 200 containers is about $85...
Each of the new bags utilizes 75-percent less plastic than one of the original shell containers. Considering Costco sold 137 million rotisserie chickens worldwide in 2023, it adds up to a lot of plastic. I think Costco is doing the right thing.
