Re: anyone tried new grilled chicken from Kfc

I tried the grilled KFC when it first came out. I liked the legs best, then the thighs. Breast meat was kind of dry and the wings should be given away free they are so tiny. In fact all of the pieces were small which was fine by me...made me realize how much breading goes on the regular fried chicken though.

It was a one time thing for me. The sides at KFC are mainly starches. Does anyone really have potatoes AND a biscuit? Anyways, the green beans I got for a side had no flavor whatsoever. None! Think: canned green beans that you boiled in water all day. Yuck.

The biggest turnoff was all the chemicals used. Too bad...it was tasty.

Re: anyone tried new grilled chicken from Kfc

I really like the grilled chicken..and I love to be a patron for a low carb product..I know I am only one customer..but in my heart I feel the more purchases of a low carb product I make the more a company or my friends/family will be more inclined to purchase and introduce low carb products.
i.e. I am praying that popeye's also creates a low carb produce because popeye's is so much closer to my home ...walking distance even!!!!!

Re: anyone tried new grilled chicken from Kfc

I agree with you about supporting companies that recognize the market for low-carb -- I have written e-mails to various companies to thank them for their products (couldn't live without Heinz' reduced sugar ketchup). I'm wondering if you read Carole's post above with the ingredient list for this chicken? Some of the ingredients could kick in cravings or create a stall, depending upon the individual. If I have to choose fast food, I'd rather go with a bunless burger.

No worries - looks to me like you've been doing a terrific job!

Just remember, companies are allowed to round down the carb content. So if something has .45g of carbs, they can still say 0. The carb content and nutrition label should be used together for a complete picture.

Have you moved on to OWL yet? Beer and wine are on Rung 5.

Re: anyone tried new grilled chicken from Kfc

the honest answer i am drinking way more miller lite than Dr.Atkins would approve of.
But I like it.
I like an atkins life style because it shrinks my appetite.
I am less hungry on atkins than any other diet.
I know I cheat. I feel bad I cheat. but in realty I know I am cheating this weekend.
Some say that is not atkins. Who am I to judge.
I like Miller lite and will have some friday and saturday..
Walked 5 miles yesterday...have to cheat somewhere to make the weekend worth waiting for
