The meal I just had from KFC, why do they get such a bad rap? I ate this, and it was good...salty and greasy, but isn't that how soul food is supposed to be?

KFC is definitely expensive for what it is, but it's alright. There's no reason it should be like 2x the cost of Popeyes or other places that serve chicken.

>> No.17657354

Go to literally any grocery store with a deli section and you can get an 8 piece bucket of fried chicken that's not only better but cost 1/3rd the price. Back when kfc still used all the spices and soaked the chicken in buttermilk it was worth having, but anyone buying it in the last 20 years, at least in America, is fucking retarded. Paying a premium for an interior product.

The 2 piece is a 5 dollar fill up bro you won't get that in a grocery store

Because 10 of 11 of their herbs and spices are salt. You can get better from any other chain and much better from even a grocery story hot case.

You’re gay and you enjoy sucking dicks.
Your grocery store chicken isn’t better. It’s just cheaper. Which is ideal for you since you’re poor and also want to act like you’re above those who don’t have to buy fried chicken based on being poor.

I don't hate kfc, it tastes pretty good, but it's always way too soggy and salty. publix, popeyes, chick-fil-a, pdq, and most fried chicken places are better than kfc

a good popeyes sandwich is actually the best fried chicken I've ever had. Problem is every popeyes within 50 miles of me is located in the hood with terrible service and food quality.

I was driving through a rural community in the south that had one with high rating. Holy shit were the sandwiches good. And yeah I went back for a second. Same thing with Zaxby's. FInd a good location down south and it's the fuckin best.

Fried chicken is so easy, I honestly don't understand how so many places and people fuck it up.

That's like saying "most wet water." I've had friends from developing countries tell me their KFC/etc. was better than what we got in the US and in my limited experience with fast food in foreign countries I've come to the same conclusion.
