>>22106347
>>22106347Hook me up, Robert.
They actually always had it in my area.It never went away.Fast food is trash btw.
>>22106347what is "popcorn chicken"?
>>22106385Imagine a chicken nugget, but smol like a piece of popcorn so you can eat them a handful at a time.
Why is it AI
>>22106407Because businesses sunk a shitton of money into gen AI token agreements when CEOs wanted to ride the next big wave, and this is an easy way to burn through those tokens to act like they're getting return on their investment.
Buy an ad retard
>>22106347I literally had no idea they got rid of it, I haven't been there in probably like a decade. The last good thing they had was the bowl. Does that mean they didn't have any popcorn chicken to put in those?
>>22106347>Disgusting black fingers in ad.I'll pass.
>>22106431Who cares? It's not even a real hand. It's not like a black took a hand modeling job from a white.
>>22106476When selling food, it is in your interest to not present the buyer with images of things that evoke the thought of feces.
>>22106431>>22106476>>22106484I'd eat chicken made by Robert way before I even touched anything made by you incels.
>>22106504What does that even mean? Is that guy a chicken fucker or something?
>breadLol no. If I'm going to a chicken restaurant I'm going to eat children not bread.
>>22106512he's a /tv/ faggot so basically a waste of space
>>22106385Big bites of breading that have a lil bit of chicken
>>22106516>I'm going to eat childrengotcha pedo
>>22106347>"that'll be $24.99"
>>22106389>a handful at a timewhat the fuck is wrong with you?the entire point is it "pop" one in your mouth.
>>22106534
>>22106537Nugget size is already for that. The only reason to make them smaller is so you can fit more in your mouth at a time.
>>22106541>Nugget size is already for thatyou bite the nugget in half, not pop a whole nug in.>The only reason to make them smaller is so you can fit more in your mouth at a timenope.it's to "pop" one in.
>>22106526Can you even see any meat in the pic?
>>22106537The point of making it smaller is so that it's easier to fit more in your mouth and so that there is more breading per amount of meat for when they're fresh out of the fryer, makes them crispier than a regular nugget because more of the surface area has been fried.The ideal eating strategy is to pop one in each side and then munch down. Your feminine preferences of daintily eating one at a time to keep your nails pretty are invalid here.
>>22106556>instantly mogs KFC chicken and all the unnecessary breading. All for 1.99 a pound.KFC is for fats.
>>22106556>The point of making it smaller is so that it's easier to fit more in your mouthnope.it's to "pop" one in.nobody sane grabs handfuls of balls of chicken and fills their mouth, you weird fucking person.
Do better kfc
You could get better and probably more at literally any taiwanese cafe and at least those ones won't give you diarhea
>>22106556>Your feminine preferences of daintily eating one at a time to keep your nails pretty are invalid here.I need a /ck/ baddie gf so bad...
>>22106586You should have sex sometime, I don't care if you're gay. Then you may not disappear up your on shitbox, you supercilious little prick.
>>22106347Whew that brings back memories. One time a high school friend asked me to drive him to another state to catch a flight, I don't remember why but we were young and dumb so it seemed like no big deal. This was before cell phones so I just plotted out a course on a map and off we went. Had no problems until I was on my way back. Stopped at a kfc somewhere along the way and spent half my gas money on a big box of popcorn chicken. It was so good but I barely had enough gas to make it back and halfway back I ran into an insane storm. It was so bad I had to roll down the window and stick my head out just to follow the lines in the middle of the road as my only guide. A huge semi blew past me at one point and scared me shitless almost ran right off into the ditch. Limped home on fumes, was real stupid of me looking back on it but still a good memory. Hope the popcorn chicken is as good as it used to be.
Hi I’m just here to say as a longtime fatass who wanted these back, and was super excited to see them return:They were TOTAL ass. Not even close to being the same. The popcorn chicken I remember from the 2000s was crunchy, slightly spicy, and had a texture more like their hand breaded strips. These are not that at all. My disappointment is high, but not unexpected given the continued enshitification of all fast food nationwide. These are not even close. Fuck KFC.
>>22106623Wholesome! These are the kind of heart warming fast food testimonials /ck/ needs more of.
>>22106621Next time in English fatty.
>>22106347they need them in nashville hot.all chicken should be nashville hot.
>>22106648Agreed
>>22106648Hell yeah! KFC and Flamin' Hot Cheetoes need to link up. Need that.
>>22106347They stopped making it in America? pretty sure it never went away in Australia, but it stopped being good so I wouldn't get your hopes up
Only real boomers know that the very original popcorn chicken in the mid 90s was the best. Every other time it's come back, it's never been the same. Including it coming back in the 2000s.
>>22106665>Flamin' Hot Cheetoesnah, just nashville hot.the flamin' hot cheetoes don't really taste good.although, using fritos chili cheese twists as a breading would be really good.
>>22106671They used to use real chicken scraps back then, now it's processed and extruded from a machine.
>>22106589>nobody sane grabs handfuls of balls of chicken and fills their mouthno sane society would turn a perfectly fine chicken filet into an extruded ball of chicken paste. Also>handfulsI said two retard, learn to read.
>>22107325>no sane society would turn a perfectly fine chicken filet into an extruded ball of chicken paste.They don't. The chicken paste is left over from processing other product streams or is made of chicken that is no longer suitable for other means of distribution. Without nuggets, hot dogs, spam, etc this completely pulverized matter from the bottom of the mechanical separation vat would simply go to waste. They salvage it by adding various agents to make it appear palatable and presto - you're paying money for something that would have been waste. That's the beauty of capitalism.
>>22107325>no sane society would turn a perfectly fine chicken filet into an extruded ball of chicken pasteimagine thinking society is real.is the society in the thread with us right now, anon?
>>22107416>That's the beauty of capitalismnever forget that under communism they wouldn't even be able to afford the chicken and would try to steal it from america.
>>22106347A disgusting ad!
I was gonna order some chipotle chicken rollers from Del Taco but I might order some KFC instead now because they’re doing a deal where you get a free loaded bowl with a popcorn chicken meal. Problem is it only comes with one side and I really want mac and cheese and powdered taters n gravy and slaw but I’m really not trying to pay out the ass for a tiny baby portion that’s gonna be basically five or six bites tops if I’m not nibbling on it like a bunny rabbit. Fast food prices are such fucking AIDS, holy moly
>>22107544>say capitalism is good>random weird retard: BUT COMMUNISMok
