Poll of the Day > How long would it take you to eat an entire rotisserie chicken?

(+) Yeah! (+)

The last several that I bought from Costco I ended up throwing away part of. I hate throwing away food, but at least Costco chickens are enormous and cheap.

I don't really like dark meat, so I wouldn't eat the whole thing... but moreover

...I would feel really guilty

I tried making a cornish hen once and all I could see was a baby hen, 'plz don't eat me'

When I worked in an office, I would buy one on a Sunday and split it up into 4 meals for lunch. So I guess a week? Although realistically, probably two days.

I'd never be able to eat an entire rotisserie chicken, because I hate chicken wings.

I enjoy breasts (no jokes), and I'm willing to eat drumsticks, but I'd throw the wings out unless someone else wanted to eat them.

It's why if I ever buy rotisserie chicken at all, I only buy the separate breast-only ones.

I could eat it in under an hour, but usually shred it up and have it for several meals throughout the week.

Depends how I'm using it. Generally, a pound of chicken (usually thighs) will give us 6-8 servings of whatever I'm cooking with it, which is 3-4 nights, so I'd expect a whole chicken to last about a week. That's a long time to keep it, though, so I'd probably end up freezing some of it to use in a later recipe.

I usually grab one, a loaf of fancy bread, and some broccoli and that's two meals for me.

If it was just the chicken on its own with no sides, I could eat it as one serving.

An hour if I was hungry enough

An hour if I was hungry enough

I last boss at my previous job would buy one every time he went grocery shopping with his wife and eat the entire thing before they even got home. LOL!

I could eat a whole one in 20 minutes no problem if it is a food challenge.

I would only eat half at a time myself tho, and still would probably only take me 20 minutes eating casually.

I'm not fat but I could eat the whole thing in one go if I wanted to.

I've eaten an entire one in one sitting before and I'm a normal weight.

I've eaten a good chunk of a Costco size one in one sitting but that was years ago and I don't get as hungry now.

I could probably still do a normal sized one in a hour still though.

I eat the equivalent of two rotisserie chickens every single day, even on vacation. I also consume about 10 to 12k calories per day in general. And I generally go to bed at night still feeling kinda hungry. I burn through a lot of calories though. My workouts are intense and I play hockey multiple times a week

the entire thing? I'm not going to eat bone

I did it in like 30 minutes about a month ago

Yeah, I recall you mentioning this a few times already.

imagine the focal point of your online personality being the fact that you eat too much chicken every day

I mean, if I really tried I could do it under an hour but if I ate just enough to satisfy me in a sitting then a couple of days

That's the focal point of my real life personality too so at least I'm consistent

Honestly, Im impressed by your dedication. Id die if I had to eat the same thing for an entire week.

It would take me a few days.

It would go bad first.

Im not much a fan of chicken, even less a fan of chicken with bones, so Id leave it for the bacteria and fungus.

I only eat the legs, thighs, and wings. I give the rest to my wife.

Are people answering this as how quickly they could eat one or do a bunch of people really buy rotisserie chickens and eat the whole thing in one sitting? I mean I bet I could eat one in an hour, but I wouldn't

I usually eat half but when I was 220lbs (I am 170 now) I would periodically have an entire one (and nothing else) for dinner.

One of the Costco chickens (the big ones), I usually get about 4 or 5 meals using the breast meat as an ingredient (for pizzas, pasta, rice, etc), plus at least 2 meals just eating the legs & wings, 3-4 if I use them for other dishes. That's how I can end up with one going bad so easily.

There's a chain called "Old Style Chicken" (I guess that's how I'd translate it) in Korea that sells whole fried chickens and one is a meal. If I were buying a chicken for sandwich/salad purposes then I guess it'd last for a handful of meals and take a few days.

Two days for two meals for two people, but now they are so small the average child could eat one as a side.

Are you getting Cornish hen rotisserie chickens?

The ones they have at Walmart are pretty tiny. And cost the same as the Costco monster chickens.

A few days.

I don't know about a chicken, but I can eat a peach for hours

I don't think Tom finishes his 3 chickens.
