    Anyone buy Chicken Tenderloin from Costco?

    I have been buying these bags of individually frozen Tyson Chicken Tenderloins (Boneless Skinless) for ages...

    When I first bought it about a year ago I remember putting into fitday the serving size, etc. from the packaging...

    It was...

    4 pcs (about 5 oz)...120 cals/0g fat/1 g carb/29 g protein

    I just checked recently and the new label said...

    2 pcs.......................130 cals/1g fat/1g carb/29 g protein

    So I know we have a lot of Costco/BJ shoppers here...Who else buys this chicken and what do you use for macros?

    Thanks!

    Lina,
    I use to buy those and I remeber the first label you wrote as the one I would always use.

    Does the new label specify the ounces or does it just say 2 pieces?

    I use Tyson Mesquite grill! Much more flavor and quicker cooking.

    You know what we just were a little daring this weekend and ventured out of our norm and bought one bag of those too...

    Their flavouring is good but lots of additives, sodium, etc. and is that a real whole piece of chicken or is it like the chicken burgers like Mc Chicken sandwiches where it's ground up chicken shaped into a patty?

    Don't know..it just tastes good enough not to get tired of it and it works for me! At the end of severe cut (and I don't worry about sodium most of the time)...I go to regular chicken breasts.

    Same here. I dont care for the tenderloins because they have that rubbery string in them, but I too did notice the difference. Talk about confusing your macros

    I get mine in bulk from my grocery store for $1.89/lb. Mine don't contain that rubbery string that Britney mentioned. But I think I know what you're talking about. That's a tendon of some kind, right?

    I guess I don't buy the packages from Costco/Sam's/BJ's because of the sodium listed is higher than what is listed for fresh. And I'm assuming it's because there's a sodium based preservative used during the freezing and packng process.
