chicken again we have chicken every day I'm tired of chicken yes KFC has some finger licking good
fried chicken but there are some things to stay away from here are 10 KFC items you should never
order under any circumstances famous bowl you guys smell that smells like that new famous bowl
at KFC unfortunately this filling item is sort of famous for being an unappetizing addition to
KFC's menu separately the ingredients that make up the famous bowl aren't a problem the bowl
includes a list of popular items such as fried chicken mashed potatoes cheese and gravy these
should add up to a delicious meal but instead you get one of the KFC items you should never order
like most recipes KFC's famous bowl is only as good as the ingredients that are used and
something equally important the execution the chicken chain does chicken and mashed potatoes
for a living so as you might expect the problem is more in the execution of the famous bowl for
one thing the bowl is topped with gravy a lot of gravy gravy foreign if you're not careful gravy
has a way of making a dish too salty and too soggy the chicken mashed potatoes and cheese
are already salty so the extra gravy makes the dish a sodium bomb you'd be better off avoiding
you could ask for the gravy on the side or ditch it all together but it probably can't rescue this
promising but disappointing dish barbecue sandwich barbecues like family you might wonder why did KFC
wait until 2018 to introduce the Smoky Mountain barbecue sandwich a fried chicken sandwich with
barbecue sauce sounds like a good idea it turns out the better question is why did KFC bother
with this sandwich at all KFC employees have been asked about the chains barbecue sandwich
and a lot of the responses were less than kind some of the former employees basically said that
KFC sometimes uses old chicken for the barbecue sandwich but the company doesn't think it can
sell to customers in another form what for what it's worth KFC would almost certainly deny this
unappealing allegation the former employees go on to say that the questionable chicken is soaked in
barbecue sauce for a while in order to perk it up before it's used for the sandwiches if the
former employees are telling the truth then there's no reason to order a sandwich like
this in the first place KFC has plenty of ways to Eat Fried Chicken including Wings breasts thighs
and tenders potato salad it's just potatoes and mayonnaise potato salad is a classic picnic side
dish that goes great with hot dogs hamburgers and fried chicken on the downside however this hearty
side dish can be problematic since the amount of mayonnaise used can vary widely depending
on the particular recipe some people like a lot of mayo While others enjoy potato salad that is
more vinegar based KFC's potato salad recipe seems to include generous amounts of mayo and vinegar as
well as some pickle juice for good measure this might add up to an appealing dish for some people
but it definitely adds up to a very salty side with nearly 300 milligrams of sodium in a small
serving size fast food meals are usually loaded with more than enough salt to last you for a few
days and this potato salad would definitely add significantly to your recommended daily
allowance of sodium is that good it sounds bad however salt is far from the only problem with
this potato salad the generous amounts of mayo contained in a serving of KFC's potato
salad adds 28 grams of fat and 340 calories to your meal Nashville hot chicken oh my God
this spicy KFC menu item looks like it would be a delicious addition to the menu but looks can
be deceiving KFC likes to highlight the hot sauce and the pickles that are the signature ingredients
of its Nashville hot chicken like a great tune is meant to complement stirring lyrics the hot sauce
is meant to complement the Chain's Famous Fried Chicken unfortunately somewhere along the way
this plan went a little bit off the rails KFC's standard Fried Chicken is seasoned with Colonel's
famous 11 herbs and spices and most people who eat this chicken think it has a lot of flavor and like
it the way it is drenching tasty fried chicken with hot sauce and pickles might be Perfection
for some people but for many it turned out to be kind of Overkill sometimes companies forget that
changing something isn't the same as improving it overdoing its attempted spicy fried chicken
instead of improving it is the reason Nashville hot chicken is one of the KFC items you should
never order under any circumstances the chicken chain standard fried chicken recipe already has
what most customers would say is the right amount of spiciness or they wouldn't keep coming back
for more wings that's right chicken wings chicken wings are a favorite snack at sports bar and Super
Bowl parties everywhere because KFC makes its money selling chicken it only makes sense that
the fast food chain would want to try its hand at selling chicken wings too it's almost a shame to
report that the chains attempt at chicken wings has flown The Coop this is a little surprising
because chicken wings shouldn't be hard to make this is especially true for a crack chicken outfit
like KFC where One reviewer describes the wings as looking old and slimy not cool this is not the
description the fast food chain was hoping for when it decided to get into the Wing game this
is the kind of criticism that can Doom a product when it comes to chicken wings the quality of the
sauces and spices that are used can make or break them not all sauces are created equal so they must
be chosen with care when someone describes the sauces as making the chicken wings slimy you can
be pretty sure something went wrong at KFC HQ somewhere along the way the good news is that
decent chicken wings aren't hard to find or to make for yourself at home there's no reason to
even have to consider getting them at KFC unless you're a glutton for punishment the next time you
visit your local KFC you'll be better off sticking to the fried chicken corn his favorite food is
corn perhaps this negative reaction really isn't fair to Corn because most people aren't really
thinking about things like corn when they decide to go to a fast food restaurant people visit their
favorite chain for some good tasting food which usually ends up being food that is generally
bad for them corn isn't bad for you but it's not exactly health food either if you're gonna offer
corn as a side dish at a fast food restaurant then you have to come through with a serving of crisp
corn that is flavorful but isn't too salty mushy salty corn is a complete waste of calories that
should be shunned unfortunately this popular grain that is often treated as a vegetable is fairly
high in carbohydrates but if you're looking to eat more carbohydrates the next time you visit your
local KFC you might as well pick something a lot tastier such as a biscuit or an extra serving of
mashed potatoes at least these menu items aren't masquerading as vegetables indeed indeed a salad
with some fresh greens tomato and cucumber makes sense if you want healthy vegetables it would
also make sense to avoid KFC's corn because it's pretty much the opposite of just that chocolate
chip cake I say let them eat cake some fast food chains are much better than others when it comes
to coming up with tasty desserts that appeal to a wide customer base the sweet treats sometimes
seem like an afterthought at many restaurants but McDonald's for example has had great success going
all the way back to its classic and discontinued McDonald's land cookies McDonald's success with
desserts continued with its apple pie soft serve Sunday and McFlurry the same cannot be
said for KFC and its attempt to offer popular desserts the chicken Centric chain does offer
a tasty chocolate chip cookie but it's hard to completely mess up a classic tree to the point
of not wanting to eat it well the chocolate chip cake from KFC is a different matter this dessert
is a round bundt cake with icing and contains 300 calories per serving wow probably the best
thing about this cake is that it will serve up to six people but the question is will you be able
to find six people who want to eat it this is a chocolate cake after all so there will probably be
a few takers for KFC's take on cake however this hasn't stopped it from being one of the KFC items
you should never order in the end it really just comes down to the math even one slice of KFC's
chocolate chip cake isn't nearly good enough to justify the calorie and carbohydrate totals you'd
have to accept secret recipe fries can anyone guess the secret ingredient you probably should
be wary of any secret recipe menu item especially from a fast food chain you know our secret recipe
is a a secret however KFC's marketing strategy is largely built around its secret blend of herbs and
spices that it's kept under lock and key for so long maybe the fast food chain deserves a
little latitude when it comes to secret recipes KFC started offering its secret recipe French
fries in 2020 but it seems like you should be asking why the fast food chain decided to do
this at all KFC squandered whatever latitude it had by bringing up its secret recipe French fries
a apparently part of the reason that the fast food chain decided to offer them was the desire to make
french fries that look a lot like little pieces of fried chicken however it's important to point
out that these are not chicken fries these are just standard potato fries the difference is that
they supposedly have a secret like KFC's Famous Chicken these secret recipe fries are made with
the same 11 herbs and spices customers are used to getting when they order the chicken many customers
probably want a little bit more of a flavor contrast between their chicken and their french
fries and this helps explain this menu items poor showing grilled chicken sandwich do you have a
Homeless girl chicken maybe the fast food chain should consider changing its moniker from Kentucky
Fried Chicken to Kentucky grilled chicken to give its image a boost and can form more to
Modern tastes however if KFC is going to stay true to itself while trying to go the grilled
chicken route it's going to have to do better than the very mediocre grilled chicken sandwich it's
been offering customers it shouldn't be all that surprising if a hamburger chain offers a chicken
sandwich that's mediocre or Worse KFC however has made chicken its specialty and it's been rather
successful at it you would expect the fast food chain to offer a decent chicken sandwich whether
the sandwich is fried or grilled the most common problem with grilled chicken sandwiches is that
they often end up being dry and rubbery than moist or juicy yikes that's a recipe for disappointment
mayonnaise and other toppings can help with this problem but not enough to keep this KFC grilled
chicken sandwich off the list of items you should never order fried chicken sandwiches with their
oil soaked crispy goodness are delicious almost by default however a restaurant
has to do some work to make a grilled chicken sandwich something people want to order and it
looks like KFC didn't put in the work to make this happen so it's suffering the consequences
chicken pot pie you just graduated pie scope sorry I said something just really worked up the
blend of Chicken vegetables and gravy topped by a flaky crust is almost the definition of comfort
food just stick your fork in and enjoy a slice or two of hot chicken pot pie on a Brisk fall
evening is popular for good reason this is why it's such a shame that KFC's version is one of
those items you should never order that is sad KFC exists to sell chicken that tastes so good
people want to keep eating it expectations for their chicken pot pie were understandably high
and unfortunately were not met what went wrong with the fast food chains chicken pot pie is a
question that deserves an answer to start with the pie contains 25 grams of saturated fat which
tops your total daily allowance the Savory meal also piles on the salt while it's true this item
contains a fair amount of protein it's very difficult to justify ordering the pot pie for
this reason the Hefty amount of calories fat and salt in the pie means you should really fast the
rest of the day to avoid going way over your fat and sodium allowances while it's true that salt
is probably the most commonly used spice and it does enhance the flavor of so many foods would it
kill KFC and the other fast food chains to cool it with the salt just a bit wooden the pot pie
and KFC's chicken taste almost as good with just a little less salt although it would be nice if the
fast food chain would consider lowering the salt content don't hold your breath instead save your
breath and just don't order KFC's chicken pot pie trust me bro stick around leave a comment
