\r\nCostco sells a lot of them<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nCostco sells an average 157,000 chickens a day. In 2017, they sold 87 million over the course of the year. But if you think the store is making a fortune off these things, you'd be wrong.\r\n![\"Costco\"](\"https:\/\/www.rd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/03_Secrets-of-Costcos-Famous-4.99-Rotisserie-Chickens_5840452g_Ray-Tang_REX_Shutterstock.jpg?fit=760,506\")
\r\nThe retailer actually loses money on their chickens<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nAccording to Costco's chief financial officer, the retailer loses between $30 and $40 million a year on the chickens. Still, they refuse to raise their prices to a more reasonable $5.99. The reason: They really believe $5.99 is how much a chicken should cost.\u00a0\u201cThat\u2019s us,\u201d said the CFO on a\u00a0call with analysts<\/a>. \u201cThat\u2019s what we do.\u201d In a less selfless way, the chickens keep foot traffic high at the store, which benefits its bottom line.\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/04_secrets-of-costco-s-famous-4-99-rotisserie-chickens_715044130_flugklick.jpg?fit=760,506?fit=700,506\")
\r\nThe chickens are extra salty<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nIf you've ever tasted a Costco chicken before, you know they can be incredibly salty (and, in turn, incredibly tasty). That's because they're injected with a special saline solution to add flavor. The birds pack in a total 460 milligrams of sodium each.\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/05_Secrets-of-Costcos-Famous-4.99-Rotisserie-Chickens_6363658b_Paul-Sakuma_AP_REX_Shutterstock.jpg?fit=760,506?fit=700,506\")
\r\nThey're \"processed foods\"...<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nBut they don't pack in that many unexpected ingredients. The chickens are typically seasoned in factories before being shipped to Costco, which is what earns them their \"processed food\" title. Even Dr. Oz\u00a0reassured viewers<\/a>\u00a0that the birds are some of the healthiest processed foods out there\u2014and removing the skins makes them even healthier.

\r\nThey have a cult following<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nThere is, in fact, a Costco Rotisserie Chicken fan page on Facebook, with more than ten thousand followers. Additionally, there are\u00a0rotisserie chicken recipes<\/a>\u00a0that star these chickens, and leftover chicken recipes<\/a> that can spark new ideas.\r\nRest assured, Costco's rotisserie chickens really are healthy-ish wins for consumers.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ever wonder what these tasty chickens mean for your health?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5763,"featured_media":413725,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[303838,303797],"categories-v2":[308448,308432],"coauthors":[58420],"acf":{"long_pin":"","long_pin_file":false,"ncv_override_generic_settings_option":false,"ncv_autoplay_option":"","ncv_stickyplay_option":"","ncv_ads_option":"","ncv_mute_option":"","ncv_comscore_option":"","ncv_moat_option":"","ncv_autoplay_mobile_option":"","ncv_viewable_threshold_option":"","ncv_sticky_offset_option":"","ncv_autopause_option":"","ncv_sticky_offset_mobile_option":"","ncv_autopause_mobile_option":"","ncv_sticky_mobile_option":"","ncv_remove_player_option":false},"yoast_head":"\n

\r\nThe chickens are extra salty<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nIf you've ever tasted a Costco chicken before, you know they can be incredibly salty (and, in turn, incredibly tasty). That's because they're injected with a special saline solution to add flavor. The birds pack in a total 460 milligrams of sodium each.\r\n\r\nThey're \"processed foods\"...<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nBut they don't pack in that many unexpected ingredients. The chickens are typically seasoned in factories before being shipped to Costco, which is what earns them their \"processed food\" title. Even Dr. Oz\u00a0reassured viewers<\/a>\u00a0that the birds are some of the healthiest processed foods out there\u2014and removing the skins makes them even healthier. Win!\r\n\r\nThey have a cult following<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nThere is, in fact, a Costco Rotisserie Chicken fan page on Facebook, with more than ten thousand followers. Additionally, there are\u00a0rotisserie chicken recipes<\/a>\u00a0that star these chickens, and leftover chicken recipes<\/a> that can spark new ideas.\r\nRest assured, Costco's rotisserie chickens really are healthy-ish wins for consumers.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ever wonder what these tasty chickens mean for your health?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5763,"featured_media":413725,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[303838,303797],"categories-v2":[308448,308432],"coauthors":[58420],"acf":{"long_pin":"","long_pin_file":false,"ncv_override_generic_settings_option":false,"ncv_autoplay_option":"","ncv_stickyplay_option":"","ncv_ads_option":"","ncv_mute_option":"","ncv_comscore_option":"","ncv_moat_option":"","ncv_autoplay_mobile_option":"","ncv_viewable_threshold_option":"","ncv_sticky_offset_option":"","ncv_autopause_option":"","ncv_sticky_offset_mobile_option":"","ncv_autopause_mobile_option":"","ncv_sticky_mobile_option":"","ncv_remove_player_option":false},"yoast_head":"\n
