After class I called Shell to tell her I was leaving, and she said that she was feeling under the weather and didnt want to cook. I thought, and then said “what if I pick up some grilled chicken from KFC?” My parents have had it and loved it, and Ive been wanting to give it a whirl. Shell agreed, so I picked up a family pack on the way home. It was $14, which was reasonable since their individual meals cost $6-7 each. The meal came with six pieces of chicken (2 drumsticks, 2 thighs, 1 wing, and 1 breast), one large side (we got the mashed potatoes and gravy) and three biscuits.
We both enjoyed it. I was really impressed with the taste of the chicken. It is really good, and fulfills whatever craving I have for fried chicken. The pieces are a little smaller than fried chicken would be, so that was one of the only drawbacks. The chicken was nice and moist (even the breast), and overall very tasty. I would go back again.
I think it was a smart move on KFC’s part. With only selling fried chicken, it was kind of being seen as only an “unhealthy place” to eat. But this grilled chicken definitely makes you feel less guilty eating there, and Im sure it will draw in a larger customer base.

If only their mashed potatoes weren’t so crappy
