KFC is complete garbage

r/

I dont often go there, maybe one time every other month, but it seems everytime I do give it a chance, Im immediately reminded why I dont often eat there.

Prices are always getting higher, quality of the chicken is worse, waiting times are longer, even less crispiness than before. Fries are the only constant: have been and always will be trash.

I dont know how KFC even gets customers through the doors with these standards. They seriously need to do better

    KFC isn’t meant to be anything classy anyways, everything is going up in price. I haven’t had KFC for years probably but it’s not that bad for a fast food restaurant

    I think KFC not being good is a popular opinion.

    I think the unpopular opinion here is that going to KFC 6 times a year isnt that often

    I haven’t been to KFC in years because the last time I ordered a 3 piece combo I got two logs of feces and a severed human penis in the box. But I do remember when I was young driving with my family through the south, maybe Tennesee, and stopping for lunch at a KFC. They had, I kid you not, an all you can eat buffet. And it was amazing. Endless fried chicken, heaps of sides and biscuits, and all the steaming shit and freshly sliced cock you could eat

    I actually have to agree, not because it’s food is bad but because I worked there and got treated like absolute crap, all of my friends had the same issue and ever since then I’ve been boycotting KFC, KFC can shove it!

    It’s just. So. Salty. And greasy. compared to competitors like Popeyes.

    Their popcorn chicken though. That used to be the shit.

    I actually ate it a few times recently. Where I’m at you can get 3 pieces, fries, and a biscuit for $10. Fries arent as good at Mcdonalds or Wendys but they alright. The chicken was pretty solid IMO and I felt like I got more than a nugget meal.

    I agree, in a sense. But I’ve said it before on here, and I’ll say it again, ALL fast food is garbage. It’s garbage, stop eating it.

    Yeah, they’ve been bad for a long time

    Even Colonel Sanders thought it was shit in his final years.

    He sued KFC (he had sold the company by then) for misusing his image for promoting their products, and they sued him for libel for insulting their gravy.

    I went there maybe 5years ago and the mashed potatoes/gravy and coleslaw were SO BAD now I could never go back. How do you make watery tasteless gravy and terrible mashed potatoes?? I make my own coleslaw now that reminds me of how theirs used to be and it’s a fraction of the price and soooo good.

    Idk about most people. But to me that’s quite a bit of KFC. However I don’t like KFC much either. I actually like their seasoning on the chicken, but the chicken itself just really sucks. I do crave the sides maybe once a year, but I think that’s just early childhood nostalgia.

    ??? That’s… not often? How often do you eat fast food man?

    It used to be good and really enjoyable. Nowadays it’s just expensive dry chicken.

    Ever since Popeyes came on the scene I haven’t been back to KFC.

    Of all the fast food brands, KFC is my quickest, shortest, unmistakable road to instant, blink-and-you-already-shat-your-pants kinda diarrhea. Like immediate. Cold chills and goosebumps all over. It must be the tar they fry their chickens (or whatever it is) in lol.

    Homemade fried chicken is superior

    KFC is just what stale oil tastes like if it’s in a chicken shape.

    That’s a popular opinion. KFC is trash, and people as a whole accept that, to such a wide extend that often times gas station chicken chains are ranked higher.

    Nah g, KFC down here in NZ fuckin’ slaps

    KFC is awful in America. They know they make more profit selling absolute slop to us piggies.

    I used to love it as a child but it hasn’t been good in at least a decade if not longer

  33. pogopogo890 Avatar

    You should research what substance they actually fry in

    Honestly I’m curious what your KFC tastes like I’m assuming it’s the USA ? I’ve seen what it looks like and it’s always crispy looking which is so much different to the KFC here in Australia. Our KFC the original recipe isn’t crispy only out hot and spicy ones are. I’d love to try KFC from the US though or even Popeyes lol

    You are objectively wrong and if I go from a piece of popcorn chicken, what a heavenly way to die.

    A KFC used to be the closest restaurant to my house be far. I got food poisoning there TWICE. Now it is a very good local pizza place, thank goodness.

    I haven’t had KFC in years myself, it’s been bad for a looooong time. I think it started with the double down
