Perdue is not on the West coast. Correct.

Foster Farms does sell roasters out west, but not in all stores or
areas.

Tyson is also a player out west and here in the east, but I do not
know much about them other than they are NOT a client.

The stores often carry their own "house brands" of fresh chicken as
well as local or specialty brands (organic, "free range," etc.") The
brands stocked and the types of fresh poultry carried ( fryers, game
hens, parts, flavored, yada yada) varies not just between stores, but
by area, too.

It gets complicated and by the time you factor in all the promos that
the suppliers run with stores and within advertising areas, it gets
even more complicated.

I guess they're brined because they are kept warm so long after
cooking and that's one way to keep them from drying out.

I can occasionally pick one up at Safeway for $4.99 but then they are
that at Costco. At Safeway, on Friday's, they have a 10 piece chicken
box for $5.00. Can't beat that and it tastes good!

CostCo's are huge, but they're the same price as the grocery store.
Good value.

Our Costco has quite large roast chickens, I'll have a look at the
weight tomorrow when we go to shop.

I've noticed that several groceries near us have a machine that looks
the same as the one at Costco, but the chickens at the grocery (in
addition to costing a dollar more and being a bit smaller) tend to be
drier. Before you mentioned this I had thought that Costco turns them
over more quickly so they have had less time the drain and dry. Now I
suspect you're correct. Brining improves turkey so it should work great
on chickens.

No question the seasoning is heavy but the seasoning seemed to be throughout
the meat as well as the texture being very moist. Of course the moist
texture is very common in rotisserie cooking.

No roasters here. Haven't seen those in years and when I did, they
were stewing hens because they were too tough to roast.
