splurging on rotisserie chicken

You mean those cheap chickens they sell at grocery stores that can feed you for days?

    Costco rotisserie chicken is to die for. I mean, literally. Motherfuckers waiting in line for that shit and don't you dare walk in front of the line when they start putting them in the case, you'll get killed.

    “I’ve been eating Rotisserie Chickens at Costco everyday, one a day, for the last 25 years. It all started when Costco came to New York in the 90s, the first one was in Staten Island.”

    But then he goes off the deep end about “LED light poisoning”

    So... he thinks the laser "infects" his chicken, indirectly giving him "laser poisoning"... So his solution is to have them laser him directly, through the impenetrable barrier of a cotton t-shirt?

    Are... are lasers only harmful if digested? Is the brief swipe of a laser some sort of catalyst for a chemical change in the chicken meat?

    I live alone now, and I get less motivated to cook for just myself, but today I felt like I needed to eat healthy. I got a rotisserie chicken and made a nice sandwich with it, pulled most of the meat off the bone and put it in the fridge, then simmered the carcase with celery, onions, carrots, bay leaf, thyme, and salt until it was reduced way down. Strained that into a container, and tomorrow I'll make chicken soup with that, some more of the veggies, and some little potatoes I have leftover. I'll have several meals with a few cheap ingredients. Super cost effective, healthy, and delicious.

    This is the way.

    Just a few practical tips for those of you wanting to do this, but feel a bit nervous about dealing with the chicken carcass. Disposable gloves are your friend. Pull off every bit of meat you can possibly pull off. It can be frozen and then used for pretty much anything. You can throw it in tacos. You can put it in ramen soup.You can just eat it. You can share it with your dog or cat, if you can afford one.

    If you have an Instant Pot cooker, I have the small three quart sized one, it makes it really easy and quick to simmer the carcass and get all that delicious bone broth. The bone broth can also be used for anything savory you're making that requires water like rice, instant stuffing, Ramen, couscous. You get the idea.
