Growing up in the 1970s, Kentucky Fried Chicken was considered high-falutin' food in my household. On special occasions, my father would go out and get a bucket or two and bring it home to us. It was so good. And we'd get it with the corn bread and corn on the cob. Good stuff.

Yeah, they definitely changed it since then. Either that or my taste buds have gotten more sophisticated. Which is possible. But either way, I liked it way better back then.

I agree. I’m not sure if its me or them. It was high falutin in my house too. Just seems different today.

I used to love KFC. Gags me now. Don’t know what they did but it tastes nasty to me. We have El Pollo Loco here and their chicken is flame grilled and good. If I want chicken I go to El Pollo Loco.

I'm pretty sure with KFC they changed the oil.

I'm guessing to a non-trans-fat option.

Now it leaves a very strange after-taste, especially after taking a sip of Pepsi.

Same thing that ruined Taco Bell shells.

We used to fry in pure coconut oil.

So the shell stayed crisp and didn't fall apart.

I just wish our government "betters" would leave us the hell alone and butt OUT of our food choices.

Who the hell thought fast food was "healthy", even back when it tasted good?

Nowadays I rarely eat fast food because it tastes like crap.

At least when we ate it 20 years ago it had some flavor.
