Yes. These are sold more cheaply now because it's a loss leader and they are pale imitation of the true product that they represent. They loaded with extra fat and salt, which is why people love them. Like they are literally injected with a solution of fat, salt, and chemical agents to tenderize the meat. It's the same as McDonalds, but people are under the delusion it is 'healthy' and 'natural' or something. It's processed food make for mass consumption at lowest possible cost.

A legit rotisserie chicken is 2-4x that cost and would not taste nearly as good because of the lack of fat and salt.
