We discussed this before and I believe you said this was made by Sweet Sue
but it has been a while and I don't know how you came to that conclusion.

As for the price, could be one of two things. Although Winco is usually the
cheapest place to get most things, it isn't cheap for everything. Slimfast
beverages for instance. I think they likely have the highest price on those
of anyone in the area. Also, I think food prices in general are much higher
here than they are there.

Thanks for the pic (and also the DIRECT link to the photobucket pic).
Going by price, much better to buy a whole fresh chicken.

Nobody has ever stopped me from taking a picture in a grocery store or

competition", so if they can do that - I can take a picture of an item
that's on the shelf.

My husband was stopped at a grocery store in PA. They told him to put the
camera away or leave.

It's an ignorant antiquated management thing (not like they get real
talent in grocery store managers). 98% of the time when I take a picture
in a store it's because I think a friend of mine might want the item,
i.e. it's bringing them more business. If they give me crap I blacklist
the store for a year (or more) and send an email to their corporate
office explaining why.

Why on earth would anyone buy canned chicken when you can get the whole
bird or parts thereof in any city?

A camping or hunting party, or you live up in the mountains,
isolated, and are snowed in 5 months of the year. You live in tiny
digs and have no space in your refrigeration unit for raw chicken. You
are on mining up in the mountains. You're on an archeological dig for
months at a time. You like canned chicken. Something for the Food
Bank. Probably a dozen other reasons why canned chicken is available.
In my state there are still people that have to drive in tough
conditions for a couple of hours to get to shopping -- or fly in.

Emergency preparedness: long time power failure or apocalypse,
whichever comes first.

<G> But the price of that canned chicken... $8.32?! YIKES!

I do remember when it was cheaper than buying a whole chicken. I was
working (my husband wasn't). Living paycheck to paycheck. That canned
whole chicken was cheaper than buying a whole chicken. It worked just
fine for chicken & dumplings. I wouldn't buy it these days, but it did
serve its' purpose circa 1982. These days I'm surprised anyone is
still selling it, much less buying it.

It is meant to be kept as emergency food. We live in the part of the
country where we can get snowed in and unable to get out for a week or so at
a time. No, it doesn't happen very often. But a few winter's ago, it
happened twice. There was a mere period of not quite 24 hours between the
two bouts of snow that crippled the cities here. It was mayhem at the
grocery store. We had all gone low on food or at least fresh food. And we
all stormed the grocery stores at the same time. They were low on stock too
with some trucks not being able to get there. This was at Christmas and New
Year's. We had to put off our extended family Christmas until 2 weeks after
the date. I can't even remember what I served for Christmas dinner that
year but it wasn't what I normally would have.

It was catch as catch can at the grocery store. See something even remotely
edible to your family and toss it in your cart before someone else gets it!
I can still remember Angela's face when the only festive thing we had in our
bags, broke. It was a bottle of sparkling cider. My husband was in a hurry
to get in the house and hurled the bags down onto the garage floor. Oh what
a mess that cider made!

And it was the worst shopping trip ever. I didn't think he would ever get
the bags to the car. The ice was still thick across the parking lot. One
thing we don't do much of here is de-ice or plow. I picked that particular
store because I had issues in the past with ice in other parking lots. I
knew that they cleaned the parking lot on a regular basis so assumed they
would be good to de-ice. Nope. The state claims the chemicals and salt are
bad for the environment. Anyway... His feet kept slipping and slipping.
He kept falling down and he dropped a potato out of the bag and retrieved it
sooo many times we finally shouted, "Leave the potato!" What should have
been perhaps a 1 hour shopping trip turned into more like a 3 hour trip.

Now I wouldn't personally keep a chicken like that. I do keep canned
chicken though. On the street where I grew up, when the power went out (and
it did so at least once a year), it often stayed out for a week. I learned
to keep lots of candles and batteries and extra food that didn't require
cooking. Thankfully they have corrected whatever the electrical problem was
so now when my mom loses power, it might be only for a few hours. And she
loses it less often than I do here, about 9 miles from her!

I buy canned white meat chicken at Sam's Club. DH likes chicken salad
and it's convenient. It's also convenient when we are in the RV to make
some chicken salad for lunches while we are on the road.

I generally rinse it in a strainer with cold water to get the sodium out
of it. It tastes fresher that way.

I buy the chopped stuff in a can and people tell me that it is more
expensive. But if you use coupons and can combine them with a sale, you can
get those for very little. Perhaps 25 cents for a small can. Or in some
cases free.

About 11-1/2 years ago, I was taking a pic of my son in Whole Foods, and
was told they didn't allow photography, but now that cell phones with cameras
are ubiquitous, I imagine they wouldn't even bother anymore. If someone was
doing espionage for the competition, they'd easily be able to make it look
like they were just talking on the phone.

At least in my area, grocery store ads come out on Wednesday. Almost
every week all the stores have the same things on sale for about the
same price. I suspect they cooperate with each other. As the ads go
out even before the items are on sale in the store, I don't suspect
any "espionage."

I think perhaps they say they don't allow it to prevent perverts from trying
to take upskirt pics and such. We used to get those from time to time when
I worked in stores. But I could be wrong. And yeah, with cell phones
everywhere it would be hard to stop.

Either that or the vendor gives them a special price. I don't usually even
look at the whole ad but might skim it. I do look for good prices on soda
pop. Of course I have tons now and now is when the prices dropped even
further. For some reason, Safeway has been doing super good prices but...
I have to really stock up then because for the next week or two, nobody will
have good prices on the type/style that I want.

Espionage for the competition would be clandestine and higher up the
ladder, not shelf level at the grocery store. They openly shop the
competition with electronic equipment in hand. In fact, there are
apps that will shop the competition for you and all it requires is a
picture of the bar code. I just want a picture of the product to
remind myself about or show someone else what I saw, which is
something I did that here just the other day with a type of Speculoos
cookie I found on the shelf.

Some stores do not allow it. They don't want the competition stealing
their ideas for displays, prices, etc.

Probably true. I've heard of it happening and I've seen signs in a
couple of stores over the years. I've always asked permission as a tourist.

The stores don't put stuff on sale, the suppliers offer it to them at a
lower price. This is especially true of seasonal stuff like produce.
Some years back there were lawsuits with Pepsi and Coke about sale times.

None of those that applies to the grocery store. If stores don't want
photos, they would put a big sign (or at least a camera "slash" icon)
at the door saying so.

I can't imagine a grocery store not allowing cameras. I would wonder what
they're trying to hide.
