This week, senators introduced what they're calling the Hot Rotisserie Chicken Act, which would make the supermarket staple an eligible purchase under the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program.
When I roast my own chicken or turkey, I’ve already invested so much time into cooking and cleaning up that often I can’t give it more time to turn it into stock (id throw it in the freezer for another time if I had the freezer space.) If I buy rotisserie, I almost feel guilty if I don’t make more use lol. Plus my grocery store has an “almost free because it’s starting to rot” produce shelf. Pennies will get you all the veg for soup.
Yeah, doing the stock is an extra step for sure. I use so much stock in cooking for normal meals that it saves me a ton of money to carve out the freezer space (especially because all the almost rotted and throwaway veggie bits can find a home in the pressure cooker).
Our grocery stores don’t have the last chance shelf, unfortunately. In school, we’d raid the produce dumpster and have smoothie nights.
