The gooey mess created quite the discussion online with many Saffas calling Americans out for their peculiar taste in food
The chicken is sold on Amazon and goes for roughly R225 per can, which is quite insane for something so unappetising

@bozzie_t, aka Malume online, got the Twitter streets talking after he shared an image of chicken in a can. Yes, you read that right, a whole chicken in a can. In the image shared by the popular bird app user, the can of the chicken can be seen as well as an image of the chicken on its way out of its temporary home.

The slimy texture and lack of spices had South Africans trying their best not to throw up. A quick look on Amazon showed that the 'Sweet Sue Canned Whole Chicken' sells for $59.95 (R904.69) for a four-pack. That's roughly $14.98 (R225.98) per can. What a wow.
