KFC abomination

Had KFC for tea tonight, it's a rare treat and I was really looking forward to it. DP brought it back and it had skin-on chips, not fries, fatter chips with skin. Nothing puts me off more than skin-on chips, no more KFC for me.

I am very sad

@ilovepinkgin33 - you are a genius! (And you've made me hungry)

The new chips are rank

But still better than shite Burger King. Their chips are beyond wank, taste like they've been doused with sugar

DD went to KFC earlier and was disgusted they have changed the fries.

I have never had a KFC, but reading on here seems 50/50 as to whether people like the changes.

“ Beyond Wank”!

Oh dear I haven't been to KFC in a while I didn't know they had new chips this does not bode well

DishranawaywiththeSpoon · 22/12/2018 23:10

the new chips are so much better than the old ones! I can't believe there are people on this thread in support of the old off fry.

DishranawaywiththeSpoon · 22/12/2018 23:10

KfC fry*

CrispbuttyNo1 · 22/12/2018 23:16

I think they are a lot better now.

I had a KFC for the first time in about 10 years a few weeks back. It was absolutely disgusting, the chips were the least nasty thing about it.

SoleBizzz · 22/12/2018 23:37

Since when did the fries change?

PodgeBod · 22/12/2018 23:41

I quite like the new fries. The main problem with the old ones was that they were unsalted or under salted (at my KFC, anyway) so they were easily fixed.
The real question is why KFC is so stingy on their dips. 30p each!

PodgeBod · 22/12/2018 23:44

My local KFC is useless anyway. Always "forget" things on the order (never accidentally throw things in) so I check before I leave now. Last week they forgot 8 mini fillets in a party bucket, time before that they forgot the bag of hot wings.

MeetOnTheSIedge · 22/12/2018 23:47

I didn't know they had new fries but they can't possibly be worse than the old ones.

cropcirclesinthefields · 22/12/2018 23:53

We had KFC earlier too and agreed the new skin on chips are awful, the old fries were fine as long as they were hot from the fryer. Also the chicken was not as crispy as normal, a bit of a disappointment.

Willow1992 · 22/12/2018 23:57

What? How long has this been going on? Sounds horrible, what are they thinking?

They are definitely worse, flaccid, greasy, under seasoned and with skin on!!
