Sams Club - Weird texture of Sam's chicken breast
Smells like chicken, tastes like chicken, doesn't cut like chicken and the cooked meat doesn't look like chicken. Right color but the meat looks more like processed and put back together with a rubbery texture.
This isn't the first time this has happened.
(Admittedly, I am sometimes weird about meat) however my husband (is definitely not weird about meat) even noticed the weird texture. So now I know it is not just me, this is our current pack of chicken and it was bought the week before Easter (2018)
Reason of review: Bad quality.

Wow, I actually did a search for "weird Sam's Club chicken texture" and found this post. I'm in total agreement, I've never seen chicken like it.
Everything you say is exactly what my wife and I experienced. I want to know, even for purely scientific reasons, what is this stuff?
Same thing. Happened twice lately.
Bought bulk package of chicken breast. Never had trouble before. 6 of the breast were normal, 2 were like rubber. When I was preparing them I thought my knife needed sharpened.
It wasn't the knife, it was the chicken. I noticed also a darker color in some of the breasts.
This is April 2021 and same rubber chicken in packages. Apparently nothing has been done to improve breasts.
We consistently experience the same thing. It makes me sad/worried about how they are growing their chickens to taste so different than other places.
Sams Club needs to address the concerns about their chicken breast. There are numerous complaints and questions posted online about this product with no rebuttal that I can find. Meats are out for this family that come from Sams Club
Same happened to me about 2 months ago buying a bulk chicken breast pack. Thought about it having been processed.
Then yesterday I bought a whole $5 rotisserie chicken and it had the same texture! Terrible!
Threw it out. Not sure what is going on there.
So I talked to a farmer that said there is a kind of chicken that is raised full grown at 6 weeks and ready for slaughter. But if you let the chicken age to 8 weeks or longer then the meat has a different texture like rubber or spongey.
So maybe it isn't fake or gross after all, maybe just aged too long.
As for the rotisserie's I haven't ever had an issue with those. Just glad to not be alone in the weird rubbery world of Sam's chickens
We just had some rubbery sam's "chicken" too. What the *** is that?
