Good for buttoning up the chicken when you've finished hemming.

So....anyway....what did we decide...can we eat cooked chicken's from supermarkets as long as the skin is removed?
Best not to, they inject them with chocolate then hem them apparantly...
That IS what we've learned from this thread - isnt it??

Wow, what a thread! Just read from beginning to end!
Keeping to the chicken thing I used to have a rotisserie in my oven just like the supermarkets. Only held on large chicken,lol, before anyone is picturing a deli counter in my house!
Anyway, I used to take a chicken from a packet shove it on the rods and cook it. It tasted exactly like the supermarket ones. Don't see why they would doctor them unnecessarily!
If you get a plain one I doubt it is going to be much different than roasting one yourself, to keep basting it while it is cooking and then removing the skin. I would imagine some flavoured ones would hold some syns (if it contains synned ingredients) but most will be on the skin. The skin would count for most of the syns quoted anyway.

Thank you to everyone who answered with helpful posts. I shop at aldi and will definitely look at buying one! I'll also make sure from now I don't ask questions I can find out from looking in the supermarket, google, calling the suppliers or writing to the manufacturers
Aesir, you had me in fits with this, bless. As for the chicken, don't bother cooking it in the oven. With the money you save buying fresh whole chicken instead of costly chicken breast or rotisserie chicken, invest in a slow cooker.....as little as £10 from Tesco (own brand) and that way you can cook away without using any fats. Far healthier and sooooo convenient.
For instance, your chicken just needs to be unpacked, washed, seasoned &/or stuffed. My personal favourite is to shove some quartered lemons & garlic cloves up its rear, shove it in the slow cooker & cook on high for at least five hours. This meal will not only give you a decent chicken dinner, but I strip the remaining meat off next day for a curry, then I simmer the carcass for an hour, sieve & use the stock in soups!
Far nicer, me thinks, that a rotisserie chook?
