The chemicals: water, salt, rice starch, sugar, vegetable oil, tetrapotassium pyrophosphate, sodium triphosphate
Nothing concerning in that list, although the last two sound scary when if don't know what they are
Chemicals in this case is another one of those vague amorphous things to be scared of, right up until you know what it is... Could be anything really, baking soda, 5G mind control powder, dusted Bin Laden, your aunties fingernails.
Everything in the world is chemical, including all your natural GMO free organic foods, got that adenosine triphosphate, cellulose, chlorophyll, dihydrogen monoxide.
Gonna go around scaring people by telling them I've been buying skewered avian carcasses to eat instead of beef, and showing them a rotisserie chicken.
Or just get educated and look at the list of shit they put in the chicken. Your choice.
Costco chicken ingredients: chicken, water, salt, sodium phosphates, hydrolyzed casein, modified corn starch, sugar, dextrose, chicken broth, isolated soy protein lecithin, and mono-and-diglycerides.
