Are you a fan of Walmart’s rotisserie chicken? Well, before you head to the store to grab another one, there are a few things you should know, especially if you fall in the age range of 45 to 65 years old.

Size Does Matter

Sure, the low price of $4.98 might be tempting, but here’s the catch: you’ll only be getting less than 2 pounds of chicken. Yes, that’s right—1 lb. 13 oz. to be exact. So why settle for less when you can actually get a larger bird for the same price?

If you’re a member of Sam’s Club or Costco, you’re in luck! Sam’s rotisserie chicken weighs in at a whopping 3 pounds, just like Costco’s. And let’s not forget about the flavor factor.

Taste Matters Too

When it comes to taste, Walmart’s rotisserie chicken falls short. Reviews on their product page are a mixed bag, with complaints about overcooked or undercooked chicken. On the other hand, Costco’s super juicy and flavorful rotisserie chicken consistently ranks highest in taste tests. So, if you’re looking for a delicious option, Costco is the way to go.

The Sodium Showdown

Now, if you’re concerned about your sodium intake, Walmart does have one advantage. Their rotisserie chicken has a slightly higher sodium content compared to Sam’s Club and Costco. However, if you’re really watching your sodium levels, Whole Foods offers a lower sodium option with just 280 mg of sodium per 1/4 of a bird.

So, think twice before you grab that rotisserie chicken at Walmart. You might be better off going to Sam’s Club or Costco for a larger, more flavorful option. And if you’re watching your sodium intake, Whole Foods has you covered.
