"Canned food, canned meat especially, often gets a bad rap. Canned tuna is very popular, salmon to a lesser degree, but even Spam still has a stigma attached to it. Costco is really famous for some of its fresher deals. But when we went hunting for some hidden grocery gems, we were impressed by the canned chicken breast. It has over 5,600 five-star reviews on the Costco website alone. The chicken comes in a 6-pack of 12.5-ounce cans for $0.23 per ounce."
"If you've tried other brands of canned chicken and weren't impressed, Kirkland is still worth a try. Many people find it notably different, in a good way, from others available. The meat is packed in water, not oil, and it is very flavorful. It tastes like real chicken, unlike the processed-tasting products some other brands offer. It has a good texture that resembles fresh chicken, and it's not too watery or salty."
"Canned chicken is no stand-in for roast chicken breast or smoked wings, but it still offers a lot of versatility. It's ideal for making chicken salad, whether you prefer a simple version with mayonnaise or a more complex one with onion, pickles, curry, celery, dill, or other flavors you like. It works really well on its own as a simple protein boost for salads and pasta dishes, too."
Kirkland Signature canned chicken breast is sold in six 12.5-ounce cans at Costco for about $0.23 per ounce and has received over 5,600 five-star reviews. The meat is packed in water, not oil, and delivers a flavorful, real-chicken taste with a texture resembling fresh chicken without being overly watery or salty. The product is versatile for quick meals, ideal for chicken salad (simple or complex), and suitable as a protein boost for salads, pasta, tacos, enchiladas, and casseroles. Canned meat often carries a stigma, but this product stands out among canned chicken brands for its taste, texture, and value.
