The parts that you don’t want to eat. Put it in a pie soup. Making quesadillas. You can use the bones for broth no waste.

    Not true. However you can cut the chicken yourself at home and freeze the unused parts for later use. Same results.

    For the second time, I bought a roasted chicken at Costco Canada, both times, the chicken was not cooked enough, they were pink and could not dismember them by hand, I had to cut them with a knife and give them to my dog. I do not eat any meat, however I bought them for my wife, they were not safe to eat, but the dog enjoyed them because of the pink stuff in them.

    Probably cost the same. I can't imagine charging for ½ of a SKU.

    Solution: just eat it. No waste. Eat the bones too. Eat the plastic packaging.

    Funny seeing this because yesterday that I went to costco, a lady was asking a meat department worker if he could sell her half of a package meat, they employee said no that they arent allowed to do that. Costco is bot they kind of store where you can buy snaller portions.
