Just tried this crap out tonight and I was NOT impressed. There was nothing worth the 12 bucks I spent on a bucket of this dried up jerky, I've had better from the grocery store and it was a lot cheaper.

Fuck you KFC and the British pricks you sold out to. :annoy:

i think its pretty tasty. I hate fast food for the most part and eat out very rarely. Its the combination of cheap tasting food and overall unhealthyness

KFCs grilled chicken is pretty good at my local store--and its a healthier alternative.

Yeah, I don't eat junk food much at all these days and Friday is my "cheat" day, I was gonna buy my usual extra crispy but the health nut in me guilted me into buying the "healthier" grilled chicken.
I was extra disappointed because this KFC is the best in town, imo when it comes to extra crispy anyway.
Bah, I'm a tool.

I make my own. Houses these days come with this box in the...I dunno what you call it, the food room (?), and this box gets REAL hot when you press buttons on it (unlike the other box, which stays cold all the time) , and you put stuff in there and it cooks it.

I wouldnt be surprised if the grilled chicken was not anymore healthy than fried. I remember reading somewhere that Mc Donalds salads were loaded with calories.

no way would it match the fried chicken...would it still be generally unhealthy but a better choice

i think if i remember correctly, the problem with the salads were the ranch dressings or something....some sort of topping

Yes, me and the fam bought the 10 piece bucket the other day too. It was horrible. Dried up jerky, tasted like rubber. Put some tabasco, ketchup and even dipped it in gravy, could not save this.

Chicken was small, didn't look anything like the commercial. No seasoning, and not brown and crispy on the outside like the commercial. Double thumbs down.

Bah, I'm a tool.Well, when you think about it, the extra crispy is better since it's been left under the heat lamps for longer.. but when it came to grilled, it would dry out the chicken. No breading to protect the meat. I just go to my nearest Costco for rotisserie chicken. I love that stuff.

Yeah, I had Popeye's for lunch on Friday too. I even ran into a friend there on his lunch break working from home haha. Popeye's ftw.

Then coincidentally, my parents even tried to use their remaining grilled chicken Harpo coupons that same night since they expire soon, and they told me KFC told them they had to fill out these forms and they'll receive rain checks in the mail since they currently can't meet the free demand or something.

Memphis, TN KFC's don't even have the grilled chicken for some strange reason. I'd have to go to Southaven, MS which is like 5 mins from my house but I'm just too ashamed to say or know I drove ANYWHERE for CHICKEN nowadays.

Niggas have clowned too hard over chicken recently. I actually don't even want to see or eat chicken for awhile.

Whoah, the antics in that video weren't anywhere near the level of ghetto-ness I was expecting. Perhaps it was due to those being northern black folks? There's no telling what you'd see if they did a story like that anywhere in the south. Chicken is much more serious to southerners. I wouldn't be surprised if a riot broke out over something regarding chicken and pissed off customers. Southern people in general seems to have very little shame in how they're portrayed on tv.

heh, I would definitely be pissed at those bait-n-switch tactics though....getting me to drive out to a Popeye's for a certain deal, then I find out they're not doing the deal? Fuck that.

*it's also sad that the one woman said she was going to KFC, seemingly out of spite. I wonder if she was lying....because KFC really is just not on Popeye's level. Nothing is, really.

yeah, AkumaTX just reminded me...Walmart always did have an excellent deal. For 4 or 5 bucks you get a bag that is LOADED up with chicken(or a bag loaded with the chicken tenders)...and it happened to be quite alright in terms of taste.

Lol. You aint talking about shit. The antics of the true Southerners are much too dangerous to be documented on tape. Who the fuck would get that close to a hungry black person demanding chicken? You'd have to be like those people who chase the tornadoes and shit. And if you're suspected of skipping in line or ordering the last of whatever, may God help you...

It was just like this hole in the wall place but if you looked through the hole you could see like a bunch of mud brick ovens that they cooked the chicken in. that's da realness right there.

With Vons/Safeway chicken coming in next. You could get a whole chicken on Fridays for $5... damn good deal.

Went to KFC last week to try out this grilled chicken after the Oprah shenanigans stopped. It was dry as hell and the pieces were tiny. Went back later in the week (don't have a lot of lunch options around work) to give it another shot.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... I'm a dumbass.

Shit was the same. I'm gonna stick to the fried chicken, which has always been damned tasty.
