It looks like a Victoria’s Secret.......and I ain’t even exaggerat
So ... no chicken livers?
I haven’t been to a KFC in at least 15 years.
The food was so bad that I have never gone back.
It would take a lot of sauce to make the food I tried to eat anything close to edible.

I remember when Colonel Sanders was only a lieutenant......
Kentucky Fried Chicken had BBQ in the ‘70s. It wasn’t real BBQ of course, but it was tangy sweet and good for fast food. Wingstop is way over-priced. Raising Canes is unexceptional. If you want variety of sauces, get something from Firehouse Subs. It is a lazy way to compensate for unexceptional food.
Gotta cater to the gay, tranny, and pajama boy’s tastes.....
I don’t care how their “restaurants” look, the food has sucked for decades.
Yuck on the facade. Yuck on flights of sauce. What segment are they targeting?
For real?
He was worshiped like he was the Antichrist

If they drop the Colonel’s likeness from their stores and containers it will fail.
That’s the ‘Curse of the Colonel’.
When KFG was first sold to Pepsico, the contract included a requirement that Colonel Sander’s image would ALWAYS be associated with the product.
After several years, a new and younger group of corporate executive officers took over and they decided that the chain needed a ‘new look’ and discarded the Colonel’s image in favor of bright multi-colored packaging and advertisements that featured young people enjoying the foods.
KFC almost went bankrupt.
Then, somebody either remembered the clause in the contract or the lawyers did their job, and the Colonel’s image was restored to it’s previous prominence.
KFC’s financial position recovered and has been doing well ever since.
If this new restaurant does not use the Colonel’s image in it’s rightful place, the venture will fail............
My mid aged insides can not tolerate today's kind of KFC. Was certainly better back when the Colonel did ads like these.
It is a lazy way to compensate for unexceptional food.

This was my thought. Chicken should taste good WITHOUT sauce.
I’m a gizzard aficionado...............

Sounds like they’re marketing to the male workers at Disney.
Amen. I have not purchased food for me, but have been with my wife numerous times to get something for her. EVERY experience has been a bad one. Just a few fond memories:
-Racist workers at Pigeon Forge who refused to acknowledge white customers in line but kept helping black customers who walked in. We eventually walked out in disgust.
-Being asked to “pull ahead” and wait nearly 20 minutes, while idling my large vehicle, for the 8 workers inside (with no other customers) to produce a bowl of mashed potatoes. They forgot about us until I walked in. Of course, they then left off the gravy and forgot to put a spoon in the bag.
-Every time I’ve stepped foot in the restaurant, the grease on the floor was enough to make you slip.
-No visual display at drive through lines. Only an angry voice through the speaker asking “What you want!?”
-She likes the “famous bowls.” They typically put a paltry amount of cheese on them, which they usually fail to melt— either through carelessness or due to the fact the potatoes are not warm enough to melt the cheese.
-Waiting in the drive through for what feels like an eternity, only to eventually see the staff handing what looks like 12 buckets of chicken to the SUV 2 cars ahead.
I remember when his competition was MINNIE PEARL’S FRIED CHICKEN!
