COMMENTS: There was nothing the panel liked about the Garlic & Herb chicken breast, including the taste, texture, price and grill marks that looked like they had been painted on. The testers weren't even sold on the convenience, reasoning that it doesn't take much time to cook a chicken breast. "It's mushy, like it's been cooked too much." "I think it's canned chicken, compressed." "It's got a funny aftertaste." "Even I wouldn't eat it, and I eat everything."

WOULD YOU BUY IT? Most definitely not, said the testers.
