Idiotic and I guarantee it’s lousy.

About 50 years ago KFC was so good I can still picture it and recall the taste. Big juicy delicious pieces of chicken with a fabulous coating and the gravy was absolutely incredible.

Today it sucks. Greasy almost meatless pieces, dry and the coating is just salty garbage. The gravy? Yuck.

Shop Rite and Acme supermarkets make better fried chicken. Sad. Current generations eat horrible fast food fried chicken and I guess that’s all they know.

And some people like McDonald’s hamburgers.

I think those who think McDonald’s has great hamburgers, probably have never had a real burger, cooked properly.

C’mon. Wing bucket is the most calories for the money on market.

Completely agree with the decline in taste. Is my palate more sophisticated today? Popeyes remains excellent. KFC is just overpriced, bad-tasting chicken.

Yep. Used to be good. Now pukey crap. They’ve destroyed the brand. The colonel would kick their asses if he were still alive.

Way back when I was 17 I worked over the summer as a cook at a Queens NY Kentucky Fried Chicken (as it was called back then). The chicken was high quality, we only had one variety (original recipe) and the gravy wasn’t canned - I made it myself; an important ingredient was the tasty bits of fried chicken coatings.

We’re taking late 60’s.

My chicken was good. Of course, Colonel Sanders was still alive, and PepsiCo (the current owner) was an early-90’s acquisition.

Today’s KFC is a bastardized offspring.

I love Albertson’s fried chicken. I often brought home a couple of 50 piece boxes when I was in Port Angeles.
