Ok i got some KFC tonight (please no health advisories from the surgeon-general people) and i have to say it was worse than a McBurger!
We sent my dad out to get dinner and i went for the 4 piece crispy strips meal. anyway we get em home, i open the box, pull out my thing of even-more-greasy-than-usual fries to see the following.
1 piece of PURE BATTER about half the size of a crsipy strip
2 pieces of almost pure batter of about the same size. the meat that was in there was tough as old boots, ie. inedible
1 piece about the same size as these others but maybe half of it was actual chicken meat
and finally one more half-piece that was actually around 75% meat!
man im starting to wish i had gone back there and thrown it in their face.
all i can say is colonel sanders must be spinning in his grave :rant:
KFC has gotten insanely grimey.

weird.. i guess the KFC near here is exceptional, the meat is always tender and never dried out, and never overly greasy :)
No, I just think now we know what killed Col. Sanders. :cheesy:

KFC around my house is actually great. The wings and the fries are awesome! Maybe your neighborhood KFC just plain suck.

I believe they had him batter dipped.
Closest KFC to me here on this crazy cul-de-sac is about 15 miles away. This town has NO fried chicken joints at all and I miss it so bad sometimes (but not bad enough to drive to KFC, blech).

Mmmmmmmm. KFC. Or as the locals here call it, "PFK" (Y'a quelqu'un qui veux du Poulet Frit à la Kentucky?) :teeth: I love KFC. And we got the cheapie Tuesday's kind of a thing. It's like 2$ on Tuesday for a 2 pieces of chicken or soemthing like that. Can't remember. All I do know is that KFC makes some of the best fastfood fries, along with A&W.

2 Monopoly bux for 2 pieces of chicken? ;) You sure they aren't just wings? Holy crap, that's pretty cheap.

Ah Canadians, they're so wonderfully naive when it comes to people poking fun of them. Were they ever to figure out, I think they'd cry.

We make fun of ourselves more than anyone else does... SCG is just dense because he's a Quebecer. I got the joke. :p

of course, because then once it comes up you can make that claim, beat everyone to the punch, be causing the laughs instead of absorbing them, its how smart ashes survive, by pointing out our smart ashery before someone else does

unfortunately i had replaced one of the bars in advance with my festivus pole. grabs pole, therefore opening enough space to slip through! HAHA!
yeah thats the only KFC around here that ever screws up. last time they screwed up and gave me these godawful nugget things, now this. Hmmm conspiracy maybe??? :spy:
yeah and i got the joke about monopoly money about 2 minutes after i saw it! GO ME!
TOONIE TUESDAYS
We have better poultry up here to work with. :drool:
Ever hear of the Nancy Kerrigan special? A broken drumstick and a small breast.

I used to get KFC but I found their prices were way to high for the crap they served. I make some darn good chicky. KFC can't touch my green beans.
If I can cook a better tasting meal cheaper than a fast food restaurant, I do so. I enjoy cooking, so I don't figure in the time. My grean beans put KFC to shame.

Playing along is a fine art that doesn't get as much recognition as it deserves... :cheesy:

Tsk tsk. I'm an anglophone Quebecer, so it's all good. I'm the happy, Jos Louis eating, garden variety of the rabid separatiste Quebecer. I am, in fact, the only reason Quebec is still part of Canada. That, and the fact y'all would just be screwed without our maply syrup. None of that "sirop de poteaux" crap... :teeth:
Hmmm... KFC 'round here is pretty good, espically those biscuits!!(sp?)

I remember seeing a story a while ago that said Kentucky Fried Chicken had to change the names of all its restaurants to the abbreviated version, KFC, due to the fact that their meals don't contain as much chicken as they should. I wonder if it's true... :spy:
Probably not, "Kelsey's" doesn't have any food containing people named Kelsey but it's still called "Kelsey's"
KFC sucks...popeyes has much better food and plus, i dont believe it's owned by the meglomaniacs of Yum corporation... (who own the 3 biggest grease-baal resturants around of Pizza Hut, KFC, and Taco Bell)

PepsiCo used to own all three of those restaurants. Did they sell-out ot this Yum Corp, or is Yum a subsidiary?

That certainly explains a lot.
I'm not sure if Yum Corp reports in to Pepsi...but come to think of it i've never seen coke products at any of those 3 resturants...
oh...good eyes Drac...i missed that til you pointed it out...
oops
My first job was at a Taco Bell/KFC 2-in-1. The best thing is getting the chicken strips and dipping them in the sauce they put on the Zingers. I actually like going back to that store because I know the managers are still clean freaks. That was the cleanest restaurant kitchen I've ever seen.

KFC changed it's name for two reasons:
a) Everyone already called it KFC anyway
b) After the health food craze, having 'Fried' in your name wasn't the best marketing technique
