KFC (TM) Fried Chicken Strips

First, let me say I had not dined at KFC (TM) in more than 20 years.

It took California passing a humane chicken law for me to even start eating chicken again with reckless abandon.

So I sat, in my car, at the drive through, hungry (as my lunch had been a paltry 290 calorie Healthy Choice(TM) type meal) and thirsty (am I never not thirsty?) and pondered what to get.

It had to be something I could drive with, so no chicken pieces. Ah hah. The chicken strips.

When I got the food, the choirs of angels sang, "LAAAAAAAAH" as I took the first bite, dredged in honey mustard sauce. Sublime. The chicken piece was large and flexible in my hand, it was as if it were alive. And I ate. Mostly with the honey mustard sauce, but I did try the bbq and the ranch (eh). They forgot the butter (but gave me extra honey. I mean, high fructose corn syrup) for the biscuit, which I later ate with the rest of the bbq sauce and the macaroni and cheese (mediocre, but the bbq sauce saved it.)

Last, I would like to say, I ate this in two sittings. It is entirely too much food for ONE. But suffice it to say, they DO do chicken right. It was full of chi and practically alive with joy. If and when I return, if I ever dare, it will be for those chicken strips!

I remain,

Hilda Stinson
