Costco does the same thing, they put the minimum weight by a long
shot so no one can complain they were ripped off. They also don't
want to spend time weighing all the chickens they make. They just
decide on a fixed price.

Aside from that, I have never seen chicken as small as 1 lb 12 oz.
They really wanted to be safe, because they got into trouble with
that policy over some other item (they being WF).
