In high school my one friend had a big trench coat, and we would use it to sneak rotisserie chickens into the movie theater.

Not seeing the issue here. Sounds pretty wholesome to me actually! A bunch of boys hanging out. Unknowing to the horrors that adulthood brings. Soon high school will end. Soon college will start. Some of your friends will drift away. Some you won't even notice until you realize one day it's been a while since you hung out with that one guy. The one you're not best friends with, but sometimes he'd be around. Except he hasn't been around for months, and you're just now noticing. Other friends you notice right away are gone. They get accepted into a college on the other side of the country. You claim you'll keep in touch, but lets be real. You're both going to be super busy with college. You'll drift away from one of your best friends over the next few years. It's neither of your faults really. That's just how life is. You spent your whole life with this guy since you were 5 years old, and now as you transition into adulthood you become strangers. Then one day you wake up, and realize you haven't seen any of those friends in 20 years. All you do is work six days a week, and run errands on the 7th so you have enough supplies to handle the upcoming week. Now even the burnt out face in the mirror looks like a stranger.

But at least they'll have the wholesome memories of being in a costco as teens and eating chicken together. Before it all fell apart.

As a active teen and even into my 20s I could eat two medium all-dressed pizzas, I'd fold them in half to eat them faster, then go biking for a few hours, then shit out a Douglas fir that evening.

At the Whole Foods, cracking open a hot one with the boys.

It's called whole foods

Teen boys are eating machines. I remember when my kids were teens and a bunch of boys came to the house. It was like a plague of locusts. They pretty much emptied the fridge. I still fondly recall pulling out a pickle jar they had eaten all of the pickles out of, leaving just the brine.

When I was fifteen, I could totally eat an entire rotisserie chicken in a single sitting. I was also gaining height by inches at a time.

I’m surprised I haven’t heard this happening from my teens. They’re not especially into junk or fast food, but do like lean proteins: eating an entire rotisserie chicken each would be entirely consistent, and cheaper.

The only unrealistic thing here is that I almost never see that many chickens out on the warming shelves at one time

Living like kings.

Well, eating one chicken does count as eating a whole food.

Little fellas probably getting into gym culture

The one time in history a bunch of 15yr olds bag a bunch of chicks and it really happened.

We call 'em "Bachelor's handbags" here in Australia.

You can each have one rotisserie chicken, as a treat.

Shit man one upon a time those chicken's were like $5 a pop. Cheapest and fastest way of getting a ton of protein in by far. Now not so much. The last time I bought one I think it was double that in price. This is why we can't have nice things. Companies gotta get greedy.

In my day it was onions. We wore them on our belts

Yeah, when I was going through puberty, the family was going through a burlap sack of rice every month.

You will never know the hunger of a 15 year old boy unless you were one

Average 15 year old behavior.

Damn... how much was that chicken in Whole Foods?
