"american State" Fried Chicken

[mikey4444]

I am loath to give the real name of the above fast food establishment, in case it gives the Editor palpitations ! But I expect people can guess who I mean !

Anyway, I paid my first visit to one of these places today, and it will certainly be my last..... 3 pieces of skin and bone that was may once have been a chicken, covered with the greasiest batter I have ever had the misfortune to eat. The chips were cold and the tea wasn't much hotter. It all tasted like road-kill. Frightful !

Never again !

Kentucky. There you go. I'm brave.

[Mamyalynne]

You're not chicken.

[ummmm]

You are allowed to mention names. It's hardly like you're advertising.

Anyway...KFC is horrible.

[Sqad]

Mikey....why come onto,AB to complain?

If that had happened to me ( what was it KFC?)I would have complained to the manager.

[Sammy48]

Revolting stuff. Chicken with skin on (( shudder)). {:0{

'It all tasted like road-kill'

You've obviously eaten roadkill before then?

[mikey4444]

I am just trying to warn other people Sqad !

It really was horrible...I am unclear whether it was free-range chicken, although I suspect not. But I doubt it led a happy life.

Everybody else in the place seemed to be enjoying themselves, so perhaps its just me being fussy !

[mikey4444]

Joeluke...no but I had breakfast in ASDA once !

[Baldric]

Then ^^ you've most likely eaten roadkill!

[naomi24]

//You're not chicken. //

Best answer right there^. :o)

Mikey - i think you are too used to Michelin Star quality dining .

No wonder your taste buds were in shock after partaking of the Colonel's offering - ain't that so ?.

We had some KFC in a restaurant in Florida - it was fatty and greasy .
I beleive that the standard of the food varies around the world . ( we made the mistake of ordering Medium size - it was more than enough to feed the five thousand )

I'm told that it is very nice in restaurants in Jamaica

I suspect roadkill would both taste better and be healthier.
Passing by the (small) KFC in the city centre here earlier,there was a queue out the door. Blehhh!

[AlwaysConfused]

it was probably halal

[sunny-dave]

Of the three words represented by 'KFC' the rumour used to be that only the middle one was factually accurate ...

I eat mainly chicken but have never been to KFC. For some reason it just doesn't appeal to me. I was at McDonalds for my birthday in September and that was a bit naff too - nice fries and a McFlurry - I love a McFlurry.

Yummm!!! KFC, my favourite.

I'll have yours mikey ;-)

[anneasquith]

never had a KFC, !!!

[pastafreak]

I had it a few times...many years ago in the States. The chicken always seemed rather slimey under all the batter...:-((

[Chipchopper]

At last!, so thats why the chicken crossed the road

I remember having it when it first came to the UK, think it was ealy 70s (well in Bournemouth area anyway). It was absolutely delicious, the batter was soft and indescribably flavoursome. Doesn't taste anything like the same these days.
