Mammele: Be careful what you wish for. ZD might actually agree with your counter about buying OU chicken.
I have to agree with what mw said, as haughty as it may come across: everyone, including ZD himself, knows that it’s a baseless argument, but we aren’t ones to admit defeat easily here on the CR.
If companies were losing money on non-gebrokts items, they would either raise the prices of THOSE items (not everything else) or just stop selling them. Contrary to what seems to be the belief, the companies that make these foods are still for-profit. They aren’t holy organizations set out to make sure there are affordable non-gebrokts foods for machmirim at the expense of everyone else. That theory makes no economic or common sense.
