Not well. I could’ve guessed because the masses aren’t ready for that level of heat. Nice try, KFC, but without lard as an ingredient, it will never compare.
The hype was building. I perused the flyer and started salivating. KFC was telling me that I would soon be tasting some next-level heat.
This is why I don't go to Yahoo for food reviews. |

I went with the 3 piece chicken fingers meal that also included a biscuit and a side of slaw . At $5.49 the value ain’t bad. They’ll sub the slaw for another side but I kept it to battle the incoming heat that never materialized. I know I’ve been critical up to this point, but overall the meal was tasty and satisfying. The spices they used just weren’t strong enough on the Scoville test, but the chicken was perfectly done. The skin stayed crunchy even after being slathered in the sweet and spicy sauce. The chicken was tender. The biscuit was flaky and made a perfect vessel for ½ a finger.
There was a moment there where I thought I was in trouble. Sweat started accumulating but quickly subsided after a gulp of water.
Extreme close up! |
This got me thinking, what’s the spiciest fast food item you’ve ever eaten? Comment below. Now.

No letter grade? Hard for me to get excited about KFC anything. Much rather hit Raising Canes for their awesome chicken fingers.
ReplyDeleteSorry about no letter grade, I'm new. I'd give it a B.
ReplyDeleteEvery Monday they have BOGO's for the boneless wings at Sonic Drive In's. I like Hot and Spicy and was quite taken aback with the Extreme Harbenero Heat flavored wings. Admittedly I went in not expecting much and was pleasantly suprised.
