KFC Snacker

Recommended Posts

Guest TheDon

The reason why I am asking is because the other day I had a couple and they weren't that bad. I was just on ign.com and saw an ad for the snacker. The piece of chicken in the ad was huge but when I had the sandwich, the piece of chicken was half the size of the whole bun. Can I sue KFC for false advertisement?

dude... it's called Advertising period. It got you to buy the sandwitch, so it obviously worked.

 

I don't bother with KFC anyways... Popeye's is just so much better.

Strip size is highly random. I've heard everything from how big they are to "these things are smaller than Chicken Selects".

 

Late last month, a KFC in either Texas or California sold 996 of them in a single day, and I believe that is still the sales record. I've heard reports of other stores hitting the 750 mark a few times.

Those McD's McChickens are small but god damn they are tasty. But it's chicken so eventually I'll give it a shot.

 

Right after I pick up my buy 5, get 5 free of the chicken selects. That'll give me lunch for the next five days.

These things look the same as the KFC Mini-Fillet burgers you can get here in the UK. I actually had two of them today at lunch time. The bits of chicken usually fill the bun and they are quite tasty. Just a bit small that's all.

It's called a Snacker. What do you expect? I'd suggest getting the combo. You get two of those, a side, and a drink. If that doesn't fill you up, then look elsewhere, fatass.

So true. Once you have Popeye's it's hard to go back to KFC.

Bah. Give me Original Recipie anyday.

I tried it about a week after it came out.

 

The local KFC that my mom got them screwed up the order BIG TIME. One of them was the Chicken KFC Snacker. The 2nd one that she ordered for herself...ummm..WOW. It was like grounded up chicken with a glob of BBQ sauce! I was disgusted! I have NEVER seen that sandwich in KFC!

We don't have Popeye's Chicken around here, as far has I know and I don't like KFC chicken. So it's usually Cub Foods chicken if it's not homestyle.

You know, Jarod from Subway is right - those fucking Selects are goddamn FULL of fat. Believe it or not, you're actually better off eating a KFC chicken sandwich (without the sauce).

 

And Popeye's chicken is a little....sweeter, it seems, than KFC, if you're into that, and their biscuits are tasty and their Cajun fries totally rule (not as much as Checkers do, but still). Although KFC has some awesome honey bbq wings, so it's a trade off between the two.

This could go in the "industry secrets" page, but...

 

The meat that you ate came off the bone of the original and extra crispy chicken that was thrown away the night before. What I mean is, at the end of the night they take all the chicken left, but the wings, and save all the meat (minus bones and skin) and then the next day (or two) they cut it or rip it up and use it in the Pot Pies and the BBQ Sandwiches. It is kept refrigerated overnight.

Popeye's and KFC are apples and oranges. If I'm in the mood for one, the other isn't even a consideration. The biscuits are my favorite thing from both places and even they have no crossover appeal in my eyes.

 

The thing about original recipe is, every once in a while I'll crave it, and then when I get it, it makes me sick after a couple pieces and I never want to eat it again.

 

On the other hand, I've completely given up fast food, so this is all reminiscence.

Most of the time, whenever you can find a use for something that you would normally otherwise throw away, its considered a good thing in a kitchen. As long as the food that is reused is handled, cooled and reheated properly, theres nothing wrong with it, but thats where a lot of people get in to trouble and it can make people sick if it isn't.

Can't believe someone else remembered the Chicken Littles. I, too, loved them like they weren't going to be there tomorrow...and then they, indeed, disappeared.

 

As far as KFC goes, I can't eat their regular chicken (nasty as hell), but their chicken strips are delicious.

That's not "thrown away," that's just constructive use of leftovers. It's not like they tossed it in the dumpster and fished it back out.

I threw up the last time I had honey bbq wings.

 

I had the nasty taste of barbecue sauce being "refunded" for about 10 hours. Not even Altoids got it to go away.
