Actually, I have the highest respect for Costco as a retailer and business. Sad to say, but IMO they are much better run than most large Cdn retailers. And you're right about high turnover on their inventory. That does often mean better food quality at the counter.

And same with McDonald's. You don't become the best stock performer on the Big Board (Dow Jones), without doing a lot of things right. They are truly a first class business.

I really should stop now... But if you knew how chickens were raised and sold, you might think twice about eating them. The best way to find out is if you know someone in the Fraser Valley that has a large chicken farm, and get him to take you on a tour. And ask him how long a chicken goes from hatching to being sold to the meat plant. And what and how they feed them to make that happen.
Chickens, actually I do... That is real disgusting, disturbing, and for many it may turn them off eating them also (as you stated). So you are right, lets not go there.
