Fast Food Review: KFC's Famous Bowls

2-25-2008 @12:02PM Susan said... KFC Chicken Bowl was the most disgustingly dissatisfying meal I've ever ordered from fast food and a huge let down as to what I'd hoped for and expected. The usual crunchy chicken nuggets were grossly soggy from swimming in the wetness of the mashed potatoes and watery gravy it was all drowning in. Ordinarily I enjoy a good mix of my food and have mixed many various vegetables into my mashed potatoes with sucess; However this was a real miss for the sake of the chicken. Maybe it layed around under the heat lamp too long, but it definitely was a flop with the soggy breaded chicken thrown in. YUCK!

I have tried both and the Garvy bowl is great when the kids making it do it right. The BBQ Bowl was the nastiest thing I have every eaten... The BBQ sauce was gritty like the mix was not completely dissolved in whatever they mix it with. So beware the BBQ but enjoy the Gravy.

I am pregnant and cant handle the grease of just the chicken but all mixed up in the bowls with gravy over top is satisfying my cravings wonderfully. Only bad thing is that we don't get the biscuit with it. oh well.

I've had it every time I go to KFC (which isn't a lot) and thats the one thing i look forward to on the menu! I love it and I think it's one of the best tasting things ever than what my mom would make!

I think they are both delicious and McDonald's has the best tasting(to me)grilled chicken sandwich out there. I especially like it because it's served on a wheat bun.

Thanks
Debbie

Maybe your parents are to blame for your lack of taste. What kind of parent would not let their children mix mashed potatoes, corn gravey and wipe it all up with chicken? I bet you couldn't sop gravey up with bread either. I feel sorry for you

I love comfort food too but personal restraint and will power could go a long way toward making fast food chains produce a healthier menu. As for the KFC bowls, it DOES look like someone scooped the leftovers into plastic and called it a menu item.
