Fully loaded meal, tower'd up, large.

Mini fillet.

I keep meaning to attempt a family bucket on my own.

This man talks sense. Always fully loaded, tower'd up, and either a mini fillet or a cheeky box of popcorn chicken.

Sadly, living in the US, I'm finding my KFC experience a poor one. There's plenty of good fried chicken about, but it isn't at KFC. I know the colonials will tell me 'It's American, that's how it's supposed to be', if that's the case, I can just scorn them for having a bad pallette.

When I first moved to the states, I decided to take in a bit of KFC action one Sunday and wandered into one not far from the apartment.

3 piece meal please, beans, wedges and a buttermilk biscuit (:drool: )

Well fk me if a chicken and a half didnt turn up.

Its somewhat larger over there.

Gladys Knight's Chicken and Waffles is good, if you're in Atlanta and the Publix hot fried chicken isnt all that bad, for a supermarket.

Where was this? In Georgia it was the same size as in the UK, including that one portion that you just can't for the life of you work out where that goes on an actual chicken. The main difference was choosing between normal and extra crispy.

Did you try the mashed potato? It's made with pure cocaine and despite not actually tasting that brilliant, it is utterly addictive.

I'm not a big fan of fast food but at least with KFC you know the meat came off a chicken and hasn't been buggered about with too much as it's still attached to the bones!

That was in Seattle but I agree the Georgia ones are about the same size, I was a regular at the one on Piedmont Ave.

Sorry but I steer clear of any restaurant (term used very loosely) that serves food in buckets!

Ever had an Indian Balti?

A Balti pot isn't really the same as the paper thing you get from KFC is it?

I think he's hinting at the fact that balti means bucket after they metal container it's cooked in and eaten from.

Hence my reply?

Yes, but you they are both buckets. . . . .

Read my original reply again....a Balti bucket isn't really a bucket it's just a cooking pot. A KFC bucket is actually a paper bucket. Lovely.

Nothing, KFC is rank!

Eat in then.

Its not as good as it used to be though, no fag burns in the tables these days.

Also, there's a distinct lack of foil ashtrays in the middle of the table with a couple of spent Berkeley Menthols with Grandma lipstick on the butt. Nice

Think of the chickens....

Actually, following a visit to a Chicken facility in deepest Norfolk, I'm quite serious.

KFC is definitely one of those foods where, by loading up the flavour with lots and lots of concentrated salty savoury loveliness, you have something that tastes fantastic but is, ultimately, horrible st really.

Really great, yummy tasting st, but st nonetheless.

Nutrionally without any saving graces at all, KFC is living proof that what tastes good to eat has no correlation with what you should eat.

I do not and will not eat KFC. Even though a part of me
wants to.

I am proud to say, I have never had a KFC

And only a hot choc out of BurgerKing

However, the same can not be said for McD's

Its my one nutritional vice and I'm going to keep it.

I've been clean and serene from the evils of Macdonalds and BK for nearly four years.

The colonel however, with his wee beady eyes and the chemical that makes you crave it fortnightly, is staying.

All true. I would eat another tomorrow though!

A real balti is actually a metal bucket used to cook over a camp fire on whereas the container they serve large prtions of KFC in isn't bucket-like at all. It's just a circular cardboard box. . . .

[anonymous-user]

God i haven't had a KFC for about a year - might be the Sat night alternative to Chinese/Curry this week!

Good shout!

3 Piece Variety meal and an extra portion of Hot Wings for me!

I don't remember being served a curry in a bucket before - stop being pedantic! KFC MINGS!

True. Tasty though...

All takeaway food is to a greater or lesser extent nasty and bad for you. You pays your money, you takes your choice.

As long as you don't live on it it's no big deal IMO.

I like the Boneless Bucket.........

It's doable. Every once in a while I make a pilgrimage 12 miles each way to grab one - I think the journey forces me to get full value for money by eating it all whether I want to or not and by the time I'm done I'm so full I'm lucky there's not chicken bones sticking out my arse mouth and ears.

I'd rather eat my own faeces than KFC

I would take a bet that when it came to the crunch, the above may have been a small exaggeration.

A test could always be arranged, I'll happily stump up for a KFC if you provide the faeces...

Human st... gristle from the anus of a chicken... human st... gristle from the anus of a chicken...

I'll get back to you on that

Im like a few people who have posted so far, im fully aware that KFC isnt great for me, however I think its gorgeous. I only have it once every couple of weeks thankfully.

I normally go for a Fully Loaded or Wicked Zinger meal. Small popcorn chicken on the side as well. Really liked those hot rods they did recently, the sauce they came with was lovely.

Also, once did a full bargain bucket once at uni. Eating the chicken is the easy bit, finishing off the stodgy fries and coke was very hard.
