Is precooked chicken bought from the store better refrigerated or put in the freezer? which makes it fresher and tastier or does that only apply to raw meat?

i already know its only safe to refrigerate it for a few days, 2-3.– ChickeneaterCommented Feb 16, 2018 at 23:24

OK, so then does that mean you're specifically asking about consumption within 2-3 days? And your focus is on food quality, not on ease of use?– CatijaCommented Feb 17, 2018 at 0:12

Freezing will damage the texture, making it a bit wooly. It would be better refrigerated. It will taste better, too, if allowed to come to room temperature before serving.
