Definately a convenience thing, and an emergency prep thing. We live on/near the Cascadia Subduction Zone (earthquake country). Our local government recommends we keep a 90-day supply of food and water, as we’ll be cut off from major urban areas when (not if) The Big One hits. We keep some canned food around, among other things, for that reason. We rotate it out, so nothing gets too old or goes to waste. Thus, we eat canned chicken now and again.
