i don't know what that stuff is, but it is not chicken. and it wasn't worth the effort trying it out, either.
some months ago, my mom was watching her daily affirmation, oprah. she saw that oprah was giving away coupons for free pieces of kentucky grilled chicken at kfc. when i heard this, the first thought that went through my mind was "what, did oprah lose a bet or something?" oprah was giving away coupons on her website. since my mom is as techono-savy as a russet potato, she asked my brother to print out a shit load of coupons. barbara and i received 2 of those coupons. at the time, we just moved to wantagh and could use all the free food we could muster.
when we went to redeem the coupons at kfc, the cashier told us that they were no longer accepting the coupons. less than a week had passed from when the promotion started and the expiration date of the coupons was no where in sight. what the fuck are these people thinking? they told us that kfc corporate wasn't taking the coupons because many were photocopies and not valid. i looked down at the coupon, which has a SERIAL NUMBER ON IT!!! when i asked them to just scan the coupons, they gave us each a form to fill out to get another coupon. fucking christ. curse you, oprah!
weeks later, we received the new and improved coupons in the mail. woo, happy days. however, i would've been a lot happier if they managed to spell my name correctly on the coupon. the coupon was written out to "johnson reggie". at the time, i thought "what the fuck, i'll take his food." then, we had to wait a month for the coupon to be redeemed because there was only a 2 week time span for redemption in july. well, we waited patiently, like two kids waiting for santa. when the time came... what the fuck is this crap?
i've grilled chicken before. i know what it is supposed to look like and taste like. that was not grilled chicken. that was baked chicken with grill marks on it. it was as greasy as a preteen male from garden city south. (sorry, it's a local joke. it's nothing against italians. i'm half italian. just know that there is a difference between the italians in my family and the greasy-haired, gold cross necklace-wearing, iroc driving guidos in garden city south.) it makes sense, now. why would kfc corporate invest tens of millions of dollars for their restaurants remodeling them and installing grills? it couldn't be really grilled. leave the grilled chicken to the real restaurants, assholes. yours is physically sickening.
