LPT: check the ingredient list for chicken, as it's common for salt water, binding agents, and other additives to be injected during processing (a.k.a. "plumping"). This can increase the chicken's sell weight by up to 30%, and can increase sodium content from 45-70mg to 200-500mg per serving.
Under current USDA regulations, plumped chicken may still carry an “All-Natural” or “100% Natural” label. This is why it's important to check the ingredient list.
