I know I shouldn't, but I really want to. Has anyone had one since they've been back?

I’d eat it but not as a sandwich

I am a fast food degenerate when it comes to new items. I have never had interest in this. I would go there and get regular fried chicken lol

As someone who isn’t supposed to eat sugar or carbs (diabetes runs in my family and mine is slightly higher than average) I have tried this and liked it a lot.

At the end of the day its 2 fried chicken breasts with some KFC sauce, cheese, and bacon in between. Good if you have to watch your sugar/carbs, bad if fat and cholesterol are your problem.

That's what I'm thinking. 

Two chicken tendies, bacon, cheese and a little sauce. How is that gross?

Whether I'd try it depends entirely on my assessment of whatever KFC location I am visiting.  KFCs can run a bit nasty at times.  If i were a KFC where the dirty-clothes-wearing cashier looks like he/she engages in a raw butt scratch or two during a given shift, then no, I would not order.  Otherwise I would try it.

I think it looks pretty good, although I try to stay away from fried stuff.

When I eat my Big Macs, I take off the top and middle buns and eat it open faced. 

(then I give the buns to the birds)

I hope Major Lazer got a check for the commercial. Totally sampled Bubble Butt.

If you think that chicken is actually chicken meat and what are they frying it in, I don't trust KFC after speaking to a friend that worked there

I'd risk it for one. I don't make it a habit of eating at KFC, I think it's been about 7-8 years since the last time.

Trans fat and saturated fat (that ones ore debatable, but likely not great)...?

Cholesterol as a whole isn't bad (like an egg is high in cholesterol, but not necessarily bad). But you have to manage the cholesterol intake with the healthy fats to neutralize it. And with lots of fiber (soluble in particular).

All fast food has a lot of fucky things going on. Take a deep dive into Taco Bell or Arby's.

This thread is no longer fun and no longer making me crave fast food. I hate you all.
