KFC to use No-Trans Oil

Phlegm · Post by **Phlegm** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 12:13 pm

KFC said today that it will start using zero trans fat soybean oil for its Original Recipe and Extra Crispy fried chicken, Potato Wedges and other menu items. Hopefully it won't taste too much different.

On this subject, I agree with Mindia. Maybe once every 3-4 years I'll forget how it was, and think "Hmmm, KFC could be decent", I'll get some, and will inevitably remind myself that I might as well be gurgling down fat straight from the fryer, the amount of grease that's in those things.

It's possible to make home-made fried chicken with a fraction of the grease you find in KFC, and it tastes way better, too. *I* can't do it, but my ex-roommate made some that was damn good.

El Pollo Loco makes great BBQ chicken. It's much healthier than KFC's artery-clogging crap.

my fried chicken is so fried, it smells like it in the house for three days afterward.

Hell no

Yeah Harrison, how does that work?

It's pretty much just pan searing it and then baking it in the oven at a high temperature.(battered of course, but it's not a wet batter completely like if you were frying it)

Nothing special, it's just better for you than deep frying it.

I like my chicken coated with crushed corn flakes.

Maybe McDonald should go no-transfat also.
