I think those of you who knock canned chicken either didn't have it or had
some bad stuff. There is some bad stuff out there. But if you ever ate
Chicken Ala King or Tetrazzini from the school cafeteria, you had it.

I certainly wouldn't use it for all things. But it's fine in a casserole.
It's fine mixed with gravy over mashed potatoes. And it's perfectly fine in
a quick broth based soup when you're sick. It's also fine in chicken salad.

You can even get a whole chicken in a can. Bones and all. I haven't tried
that. But they do sell them at Winco.
