The price of each chicken, approximately the same size, a whole chicken, one roasted, one uncooked... the difference was about a quarter. WTF. I spend more than twenty-five cents cooking it and then cleaning the pan. For that matter, I don't even have to include the cost of a dirty dish for the first meal cause I start butchering it right in that clamshell bucket it get sold in. nom fucking nom.

Now.

It's not the BEST roasted chicken, I make a tastier, juicier chicken than one that's been mass produced and parked in hotplate purgatory. But. The convenience/grub factor is way, waaay higher.

Super Pollo Chicken is a local rotisserie chicken place two blocks from us, and when we don't know what we're having for dinner, I'll often walk there and pick up a whole chicken. They taste way better than the supermarket ones, but are a couple bucks more. Somehow they know how many to cook up, so they are taking them fresh off the spit just as you get there at dinner time.
