Me and dh were really hungry and tired and saw a KFC and bought a bucket special. I like the occasional McDonald's, but the KFC was just not very nice, especially the fries, which were inedible. I so wish I'd not bothered.

I like a zinger burger with hot wings and like the new style chips

Winterfellismyhome · 10/08/2019 19:51

I much prefer the new chips

MakeLemonade · 10/08/2019 19:52

The gravy.

I’m actually a veggie (and have been for a few years) and still fondly remember KFC gravy - with essentially chicken dippers for dipping.

TealRocks · 10/08/2019 19:52

The new chips are not very nice, they taste so dry. We’ve stopped getting KFC now for that reason (although that’s probably a good thing Grin).

I hate the new chips - skin on fries are nasty. I quite like the chicken though.

EssentialHummus · 10/08/2019 19:53

I occasionally like something from there, but the chips are and always have been terrible.

missmouse101 · 10/08/2019 19:55

Ohhh, I do love the chicken drumsticks with baked beans. Yummy!

ilovepinkgin33 · 10/08/2019 19:56

The hot wings are amazing

Chescascurious · 10/08/2019 20:00

I'll admit, the chips are nasty.

Their chicken is delicious though 😋

PumpkinP · 10/08/2019 20:00

I do like kfc but I bought a bucket the other the other day and it was really tasteless

Rockbird · 10/08/2019 20:02

Is it really? Damn. Planning it for a treat tomorrow night and really looking forward to it. Haven't had it for years.

OhMsBeliever · 10/08/2019 20:03

I'm eating kfc right now and it's delicious,Grin

BarbedBloom · 10/08/2019 20:03

I love the zinger burgers. Chips are okay

Vgbeat · 10/08/2019 20:04

Hate the new chips and I now I can't have skin on fries so they are ruled out but I do love kfc gravy

Bettyboopityboop · 10/08/2019 20:05

I eat the chips with the gravy. That's what makes them worth it, I can't eat them otherwise.

Amanduh · 10/08/2019 20:06

I love it! Had it yesterday and it was amazing. Dreaming of another now 😂

DickieDonkey · 10/08/2019 20:07

Got a KFC recently, first time in ages. It tasted ‘fishy’, I think that the oil was old. Will avoid in future.

Butchyrestingface · 10/08/2019 20:07

I like the fillet burgers. Have not partaken of the new chips yet.

Don’t like McDonalds.

SexFarmWoman · 10/08/2019 20:07

I love chicken both on the bone and off, I love chips, gravy, coleslaw.

I cannot STAND KFC, I think it's greasy yet dry, tasteless pap.

DontCallMeShitley · 10/08/2019 20:08

Not had the chicken but fries were always half cooked and the gravy is nasty.

MsInconspicuous · 10/08/2019 20:09

Because of my brother.

Spinnaret · 10/08/2019 20:09

Love skin on chips. Don't go to KFC more than once a year on one particular journey so last went about a month ago and the chips were awesome. Was disappointed with the chicken though, it just wasn't as flavoursome as I remember from years past.

butterflywings37 · 10/08/2019 20:12

Well everyone has different opinions don't they which is why some people buy it still.

We had one about 3 weeks ago first time in about a year and it was lovely - including the new chips.... each to their own

notso · 10/08/2019 20:12

We went a few months ago for the first time in 20 years. It was nasty. The queue was out the doors though so obviously I'm in the minority.

Itsonlytuesdayqwer · 10/08/2019 20:13

Their chicken on the bone is 😍😍😍 their chips have improved dramatically as well, they are skin on chips locally here... yum. Now I want kfc 🙈🙈🙈
