Apr 30 2009Good Eats: A Whole Chicken In A Can

Hungry? Yeah, but are you whole chicken in a can hungry? That's right folks, Sweet Sue's Canned Whole Chicken (without giblets) is an entire cooked chicken in a can (a big one). Equally perfect for camping trips or throwing up everywhere! Hit the jump to see an uncanning in progress, which will leave you wondering why you've ever eaten anything else. Then go get one. You'll be doubled over on the bathroom floor with the runs quicker than you can say "I think I ate the asshole"! Bon Appétit!
Hit it for the uncanning. Really makes me want one.

holy disgusting chicken
3. Tyson - April 30, 2009 10:30 AM
These things stink like you wouldn't believe. I damned near puked when I opened one!
4. Daisy - April 30, 2009 10:30 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never BAck Down where Max's head exploded because they installed a motion activated light switch in his office and set it to be very sensitive, but time out quickly. Every time someone walked by the lights would go on, and then 5 seconds later go off. It was very iritatiing.

Wipe that kids face off before you take a picture!
That chicken jello at the beginning make me wanna HORF!

I think the kid has rosacea.
The congealed fat slime is what gives it the best flavor! Enjoy!

MMMM, chicken jello shots..... I wanna see a canned turkey next...
9. photoshop-police - April 30, 2009 10:38 AM
bleeeeearrrrrrrghh!!!!!!
10. STOMPY - April 30, 2009 10:39 AM
did you see on the label? Fully Cooked. You could eat that goodness right outta the can! Or shove it in a blender for a delicous smoothie!!! HORF
11. Macmaster - April 30, 2009 10:39 AM
*HOrF*!!! A dude I worked with 7 years ago had one of these at his desk as a joke. So this I'd OLD!!! I also read about an English guy who ate one of these from the 50's and felt fine. I guess they don't go bad in that can.
12. jumpin_j - April 30, 2009 10:41 AM

Hey DAISY, its the real deal. I just googled it. You can buy it on Amazon for $50.00. Gross nonetheless!

Ugh I bet that's disgustingly delicious. My friend used told a story about a 200+ lb women that'd come into Jewel every other day to buy 2 whole chickens & bring them into the bathroom to eat them both. Yes he worked at Jewel & he also likes chicken
He said the managers never did anything when they were onto her because it was disgusting yes, but also probably delicious

Maybe the mom was just teaching the kid about childbirth.
"See, this is how you came out of mommy's can."
27. STOMPY - April 30, 2009 11:23 AM
@26
except this kid wasn't fully cooked when it came out...
28. naas - April 30, 2009 11:25 AM
STOMPY that wasn't blues bothers, that was Baja from Never Back Down that ordered the dry white toast. Max always got the chickens, and made offers for little girls. Apparently he had a drug habit to support & stole mopeds
29. Watch - April 30, 2009 11:31 AM
naas, if you were paying attention you'd know that Max doesn't have a drug problem, he SELLS drugs and sometimes does them himself. He getst he drugs in Mexico, and smuggles them to the US on his moped. Pat Sajack is the moped stealer, and Rush Limbaugh thinks Canada mints are Oxy Contin.
Theres a grease stained cardboard box behind del tacos where Max and Baja eat Bacon flavored ice cream.
Bajas dad likes hookers and after, he cuts them into pieces and ages them. Eventually they go through the chipper and are used to feed the garden.
You need to pay attention, there will be a test later.

32. Canned Turkey - April 30, 2009 11:34 AM
Whole, canned chickens have been around forever. When we were cleaning up my grandmother's house 5 or 6 years ago we ran across one can, and it looked like it was at least that old.
33. timmy the dying boy - April 30, 2009 11:38 AM
Yeah, C. T. those were around when I was a kid, at least *ahem* 30 years ago. Did you have the stones to open up that can you found?
There was bacon in a can then, too. We tried it, not bad, but it was too salty.
34. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - April 30, 2009 11:39 AM
Well, it may not look all that great, but I'd put it in my emergency food kit. Some of this, canned salsa, some bacon, tortillas and a fire - TACO NIGHT BITCHES!

38. naas - April 30, 2009 12:01 PM
Watch, I've just grown to appreciate you a little better.
Not only do you associate a 303 in with your name at one point, but with the information you've accused me of not paying attention to regarding the many tales of Max & Baja - you've clearly been with us longer than I thought.
Max DOES have a drug problem, and while your contradictive statement above saying he doesn't but he 'uses' them is only 1/2 right. Don't you remember when he was stuffing them into star wars puppets? And all those runs to Del Taco for free bacon flavored ice cream?
They were all just fronts so he could move those drugs using the puppets through Pat Sajak for he & Baja. He arranged them through the wheel of fortune chatroom. He was even fücked up a few times on the show itself (ran across the wheel itself naked once before escaping the room in a cardboard box) because Baja laced his breakfast a few times just to see how he'd look on TV.
I know what I'm talking about Watch, I have been paying attention. I am happy that you've been as well

Now thats not so bad if you are pressed for time. A little seasoning and some crisping of the skin and you hae a decent bird for din din.
50. Pilcrow - April 30, 2009 2:38 PM
I know it's cool to be funny and ironic and all detached about things, you damn hipsters, but this is really an excellent product. If I could find these to buy I would stock up. Canned items last forever; chicken BONES are essential for making a REAL stock; the gelatin is where the best flavor comes from in a soup; furthermore, there is much to be said about people so detached from where their food comes from that the sights, sounds, and smells of muscle fibers or connective tissues convinces them the product is inedible. Would Julia Childs have sneer at a canned chicken? These save energy, too -- where frozen chicken breasts require electricity (read: burnt coal) to keep, these will sit on a shelf staying wholesome and ready no matter where you find yourself. In other words, pull your heads out of your asses and challenge your puritanical (and I do mean puritanical) culinary assumptions.
51. the MomB - April 30, 2009 3:00 PM
Most of you guys (Pilcrow & a few others not included) really sound SPOILED (unlike this chicken) & whiny & inexperienced & ignorant.

@ 52
No, I won't - because like almost everyone else on the Internet you're a conceited, self-absorbed, self-important small-minded crass reactionary bore, and giving you anything to eat would be perpetuating a mistake that should have ended a long time ago.
This blog sucks.

I am in my mid 40's and grew up with whole canned chicken - it is really good, especially the jelly. We rarely heated it up, instead mom would put it in the fridge to chill. It made really good sandwiches with homemade bread. I was shocked to see that so many people have never heard of this. I do not buy it often but still do occasionally for something different. Maybe it is a Canadian thing.
69. Steven - May 2, 2009 11:05 PM
It's funny - I bet everyone who's claiming upchucks at this have happily scoffed down their own weight in McNuggets, heck they've probably wiped their own weight in grease off porcine digits down their $2.99 Wallmart 5XL sweatpants. I'd bet that's the healthiest / tastiest chicken going, sure it looks like the result of a coupling between John McCain and the bits left over from Kathy Griffins liposuction, lotta food does before it's been pureed, battered and deep fried.

@50
i agree with you
take a look at comment #14 - perfect example of trash talking and nonsense.
"It is things like this that prove Americans are all fat and lazy."
hahaha....this is really logical...they release a chicken in a can..and this means people in the USA are fat?....eating chicken makes people fat? what?
what exactly does this idiot think is in a chicken anyway?
most body builders, cops, soldiers gain muscle by including foods like chicken in their diets.....again- what is the connection between people getting fat and chicken.....
how exactly does producing canned food indicate beyond doubt that people in a certain country are all fat?
this chicken is available to anyone anywhere with access to ebay.. its not a response to American demand...nor does anything about the product indicate it is.....
how do you figure canned must mean its fattening food? corn , beans, even peaches come in a can..are these fruit also the cause of weight gain?
@14 -you're a moron. but you did manage to type and breath at the same time....for someone at your level, this is an amazing accomplishment....
you managing to type is just as much an accomplishment as an average person inventing a time machine or figuring out immortality.
btw i am not American..so don't try bullshit insult thinking its some childish opposites thing. youre just an idiot and everyone regardless of nationality or their view of fatness in the USA is going to recognize that.
