I remember that! A whole chicken (deboned) in a can (the size of a large
fruit juice can). How they managed to debone the thing and leave it whole,
I don't know, but they did it. I wonder why they don't sell it anymore? It
would actually be a good thing to contribute to a food pantry that can't
take "fresh" foods for families to make chicken soup or stew or chicken &
dumplings. Would beat the heck out of donating canned SPAM
