I love Kentucky fried chicken. But I think I love the gravy more than the fried chicken. I was told that Kentucky fried chicken menu varies from country to country. Some countries do not serve it with gravy. In our country, KFC is one of the popular fried chicken restaurant. How about in your country?

In my opinion, when they named it, they got two lots of three letters in the wrong place. The first word should be 'Kentriey' ... work the rest out for yourself. The chickens themselves are pumped with hormones to make them grow twice as fast as they do naturally ... think about it, where do those hormones go? Into YOUR body! And people wonder why our kids are maturing younger by the year! The chickens are also factory farmed, not allowed to move unless they should develop red meat from real muscle. Do you think that makes for really happy chickens? No way! We are what we eat! If you ever go to Kentucky and taste the way they do chicken that came from the farm that morning, you will literally throw up when you are next served a KFC meal!

Hi. bubbletush. Yes, KFC is popular in our country too. They make some delicious and tempting chicken. I love the original flavor. They also do serve gravy that goes over their white mashed potatoes too.

I refer to it as Kentucky Fried Rubber. It is often overcooked poor quality chicken and they load so much salt onto it I find it impossible to taste anything else. I like fried chicken but all the KFC I've tried over here hasn't been good.

You are right, KFC is on the salty side. That is why I prefer the hot and spicy variant over the original recipe.

Although I eat more jollibee fried chicken compared to KFC (at least once a week) because Jollibee has a drive thru, sometimes I find Jollibee's chicken meat dry. I'd rather have McDonald's.

In our country, in my opinion KFC fried chicken is the tastiest and the best. I like them Spicy and with lots of gravy and with mashed potato. I also like their Krushers specially the strawberry flavor. Their fries tastes the best also. I also like their Chicken Fillet Burger. Oh i love KFC!

Hi! I like KFC but not really a favorite, I find their chicken too spicy and a bit salty. I find McDonald's fried chicken to be better but honestly jollibee in my opinion has the right combination of spices and taste...

I find it absolute garbage to be honest. The chicken cuts are nothing but lumps of bone and grease, and has a very rubbery, stringy texture. The only part that has anything resembling a taste is the skin, and after that, you need a tub of gravy just to give the chicken a bit of flavour Yes, it's popular in the UK, but for what reason, I do not know.

KFC is just simply great.Each time I visit kfc,I feel like coming back again and again.Even though I'm aware of the fact that the food is not to good for our health,I really cant stop myself.Besides the fried chicken and zinger burger I also love the brownie sundae.Kfc gives us worth for money without compromising on the taste part.Its YUMMY!

KFC is good but to me it is only second to McDonald's chicken. Sometimes with kfc the chicken still has blood in the inside, but McDonalds chicken is fully cooked, and the gravy is good as well. Same with Jollibee,the chicken is a little oilier and with blood inside. In my opinion, McDonald's is the best.

I also like KFC's chicken in original style and its gravy. Its gravy is also best for their fries. And I so love their Krushers as well.

KFC is good, but used to be better. Ever since they are giving away the gravy for free, it tasted different. Somewhat bland. But I still like it anyway, but what I really like in KFC is ZINGER. just love it.

I also love KFC chicken, the original recipe and just like you I very much love their gravy that everytime I eat there i always ask for refill several times. Their chicken is a lovely contrast to other fast food chains' crispy skinned chicken which really lived up to their tagline of "finger-lickin good". I love eating at Jollibee but when i crave for chicken, it's KFC for me.

yes,i agree with you. we filipinos really love the gravy of kfc.i don't really think most filipinos love their chicken.but for me,it's awesome though i really don't eat too much of fastfood stuff.but i do love their chicken especially the gravy.just the gravy is enough sometimes for a combo with rice.there are menus in kfc in other countries that is not available in the philippines.
