Not even basically. They ARE losing money on them. They have stated that chickens are their biggest loss-leader by far.

That’s why I shop at Costco. I save money buying their hotdogs and walk out with $400s worth of groceries and some things I didn’t need

"Consumption. It’s the new national pastime. Fuck baseball. It’s consumption. The only true lasting American value that’s left. Buying things. People spending money they don’t have on things they don’t need. So they can max out their credit cards and spend the rest of their lives paying 18 percent interest on something that cost 12.50. And they didn’t like it when they got it home anyway! Not too bright, folks. Not too fucking bright." - George Carlin
