Reply to comment by dreaming-in-colour in [OC] I bought and cooked 5.5 lb of chicken quarters. This is the breakdown of the weight throughout the process by dreaming-in-colour
Package weight is NOT supposed to be part purchase weight. If your grocery is doing that, report them for fraud.

The diaper isn't part of the weight. The meat is weighed, then packaged, then liquid is absorbed by the diaper. The liquid in the diaper is what they're referring to.

Agreed. At store I managed, chicken was weighed before packaging and the price reflected only the product wieght not the packaging.
If anything, the pad's weight equals the loss weight of the meat.
If they are packaging the chicken then setting the price by weight of the whole unit, they are committing fraud.
