KFC is gross!

[danni0316]

I was starving at work last night and one of my friends had KFC. I am usually pretty healthy but went ahead and had a leg and thigh, a biscuit, mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. Don't get me wrong it was pretty delicious!!! However, I woke up this morning feeling bloated and just plain gross. I know I didn't put on any weight from one meal but I feel like a moo cow. It just made me realize that fast food is absolute garbage. Sorry ladies, just had to rant.

oh boy....don't get me started.

No wonder you felt like crap.
You only had 1,030 calories!!!!
Also, with your meal it included..
59 grams of fat
16 grams of saturated fat
7 grams of trans fat
3210 grams of sodium (*810 grams over the RDA)
72 carbs
3 grams of fiber

If you eat crap you'll definitely feel like crap. Your post is testimony to that. Hope you feel better soon though. Your post is one very good reason to not eat fast food.

**I checked this meal out on the KFC meal calculator

3 grams of fiber!

ha! the only healthy thing on there and you could get that from a small apple.

Oh, damn, I don't want to know how much fat is in Popeye's chicken.

I do stay away from fast food as a general rule, but the other night K and I were watching movies and we both started craving fried chicken, so we walked to Popeye's and got some. It was fucking heaven, especially with those yummy biscuits!

I agree that KFC is nasty. The best thing they have is their coleslaw and biscuits, but even they aren't worth the calories and fat.

Mmmm I used to work at Popeyes when I was in high school. Getting to bring home FREE chicken and biscuits (and whatever else I wanted) everynight was SWEET! After a while as soon as I'd walk through the door my mom would sigh, "you dont have any chicken w/ you do you" lol...

KFC is not only nasty..they are horribly cruel.....kentuckyfriedcruelty.com........

I would starve before I ate that.

[Yekhefah]

Oh man, I could never work at Popeye's. I would weigh 600 pounds.

I love KFC mashed pototos on a biscuit...mmm. damn it now im hungry.

I'm southern=I love fried food. I don't care what it is, if you can fry it, you better do it. But even *I* won't do KFC. Those KFC 'bowl' things look so gross, it's like they decided to put the leftovers of everything they had into a bowl. I do like the fact that they changed their name from Kentucky Fried Chicken to KFC a few years ago though. At least that way people might not realize what the acronym stands for.

KFC is a bit different in australia. they don't serve mac & cheese here, and i'm not quite sure what you all mean by a biscuit (considering in australia, the things we call biscuits are what americans call cookies... and i don't think you'd put mash & gravy on a cookie)... but it's still gross.

KFC chicken pieces are just absolutely fucking disgusting. fried food is my biggest weakness, but those chicken pieces are horrid. there's no chicken! it's just bone and skin and oil and fat!

i used to eat a lot of KFC, i'd get cravings for their 'zinger' burger (dunno if you get them overseas, but it's a burger with a REALLY spicy chicken fillet) and their fries. but every time i'd eat it, i'd be like, "this food is shit" and then i'd feel crap afterwards. and then i wouldn't eat it for ages, so i'd forget how awful it actually is, and eat it again. but now i just realise that it's crap. i haven't eaten it for months.

A scone... which in America is entirely different to Aussie scones... oh god did I have issues with THIS one!

American - Australian

Oreo/any 'biscuit' with a filling - Cookie
Cookie - Biscuit
Biscuit - Scone
Scone - not in Australia - a breakfast food with lots of sugar on it, slightly crusty on the outside with various flavours
Jelly - Jam
Jell-o - Jelly

Remember, they're also feathers on KFC not just bone and skin!!

They were voted #1 worst fattening fast food last night on the news.

Yeah, a biscuit is sort of like a scone, but more dense and moist. I can't really describe them except to say they're fucking delicious... especially when made Southern style, with buttermilk, and served hot with butter and honey on top.

If you buy scones in the outback here, they taste JUST like American Southern Biscuits. I was so happy.

How about a bread roll then? LoL

[Lysondra]

How about a bread roll then? LoL

Nope, 'cause bread rolls are different that biscuits which are different than scones...

All are similar...

Damn... and if I could figure out what to call cheesesticks (deep fried breaded mozzarella) in this country, I'd be happy. I've seen it around!! Fuck if I can order it.

[Vyanka]

KFC is like eating hot greasy bread.
