Walmart’s rotisserie chicken is seasoned with a brine and seasoning mix that’s high in sodium. A single serving can contain more than 500 mg of sodium, and if you eat a few pieces, that adds up quickly—especially for anyone watching blood pressure or heart health.
3. Added Sugars and Preservatives
The ingredient list includes not just spices, but also sugar, natural flavorings, and preservatives to extend shelf life. While not harmful in moderation, it’s worth noting that the chicken isn’t as “simple and wholesome” as a homemade roast.
4. Less Flavor, More Grease
Some shoppers report that Walmart’s chickens can taste greasier and less flavorful compared to other stores. Since they’re cooked in bulk and kept under heat lamps, freshness can vary throughout the day.
