I'd rather have access to the twister
fuck I miss that thing

>>16896255
Hey pal, you dropped this.

>>16896255
The 99 cent snackers were the best esp the Buffalo ones I’d get drunk and order like 5 of em

>>16896369
i mean it's a fucking burrito with a couple tendies and I've been without for 2 decades
FUCK KFC

>>16896251
the pinnacle of fast food was when KFC gave out 1 (one) free piece of chicken to advertise their grilled chicken item menu and el pollo loco did the same thing a couple weeks after.

>>16896387
They discontinued the grilled chicken didn’t they

>>16896251
It's still available in Canada.

>>16896397
most likely, haven't eaten at a kfc in over 10 years. they might have grilled chicken sandwiches, but i don't think they do legs and thighs grilled anymore.

>>16896251
why the fuck won't they bring it back. it's so simple to make, too

>>16896535
People memed it a bunch for being unhealthy when it's probably better for you than most people's average lunch

>>16896251
>all meat
>still breading/batter and cheese

Grorious Nippon WILD ROCK shits on western imperialist DoubleDown

>>16896251
Good but I miss the Jalapeno chicken fries from burger king

>>16896442
Did you get one? I want to get one before they're gone but I keep procrastinating. 10 years since we've seen these, I'd really hate to miss it. Do you know how long I have?

For me, it's the doublicious. I used to crush these things back in my college days.

>>16896251
this is honestly the only reason to even think about going to kfc. everything else you could possibly get is trash now. saddest loss of a childhood joy.

>>16896251
Naked
Chicken
Chalupa

>>16896618
just get some KFChicken tendies and do the rest at home.

>>16896251
>all meat
>very clearly cheese and sauce as well
God I hate americans so much. You fat fucking retards how the fuck are you constantly so stupid?

>>16896251
>was
is*

they brought it back like 4 months ago
there were ads all over Youtube featuring a bunch of Kiwis locking their boss in the toilet so they could order more Double Downs on break.

>>16896618
I think it ends November 5th. I had one this time around and once again I forgot that KFC uses this absolute garbage bacon nowadays that's shaved thinner than paper. It was still pretty okay.

>>16896671
>bread

>>16896560
>Literal "burger" buns
Some days I hate being Amerimutt.

>>16896560
umhmhmhm, that's not Keto(tm).
You're literally killing my grandma right now.

>live in a world where triple baconators exist
>People sperg the fuck out about a chicken sandwich with the bun taken off like it is a new standard for fast food decadence

I really hate people

If Dave were alive, this would be the apex of human nutrition. COCO, vitamins and minerals, everything would be solved. Instead we get the nightmare jewish bug future.

>>16897577
But lower in carbs!

>>16897592
double the cholesterol though.

>>16896251
>was
They still sell those though?

>>16896251
I’ll come forward and say I accidentally killed two people in a car crash after I blew a red light while looking for a KFC during my lunch break to get a double down during its zenith. Thank christ for good lawyers, but sometimes I still feel bad.

Don't think it existed anywhere outside of Australia, but the zinger pie was S tier

>>16896251
i ate at KFC in 2019, and almost died from it. i tried some of the food which sucked, complained, and got nothing. then i started puking uncontrollably everywhere. green shit that was like gakkk slime.

fuck that place. ill never eat at one ever again.

>>16897620
And yet still less cholesterol than a single egg

>>16896251
>bacon
No

>>16897749
Don't feel bad. They would understand if you told them the reason

>>16898668
Ironically, my court defense was an “emergency situation” since I am type 1 diabetic and my blood sugar count was low and I was rushing to get food. I had the data on my device to prove that, which saved me possibly half a million dollars and up to 14 years. The mom and daughter were also found to have thc in their system so there was contributory negligence on their part. Their family’s attorney had large knockers.

>>16897557
used to love wendys, especially a single or double. had a triple once, it was good, but felt awful after.
baconator has some shit on it I don't like.
had wendys at least once a week for 2 years. don't know if I'm sick of it or my location, but the burgers are always dry no matter the time of day, makes me kinda gag thinking of it.

>>16896255
>>16896369
is it really that good?

>>16897749
that wasn't Christ that helped you. you are going to have a lot to deal with and account for in the after life.

>>16898993
Look mac, I’ve heard it all before in a court of law. Justice was served. You’ll be pleased to know that after the verdict, I went to KFC and ordered a double down to get over the survivor guilt. My therapist recommended it. You will never know how good that sandwich tasted.

>>16898817
If God himself had one choice of a fast food item, guaranteed he'd have chosen the Twister.

>>16898817
Never had one but I like slaw on fried chicken a lot better than pickles.
Sounds pretty good if you have competent employees at your KFC.

>>16898756
My girlfriend is type 1 and she stashes Hi-C juiceboxes around the house.
We went on vacation recently and she didn't think about blood sugar because she's used to having juice or food readily available at home or in the car and it was a mad rush to find somewhere open to get food when she got low.
Shit happens man, it sucks but that's life.

>>16899521
"My son, please, he's very sick..."

>>16899546
Should just let her die

Don't even bother with KFC anymore now that they've changed their french fries. For "healthier and crispy" shit that tastes like soggy oven chips.

>>16896255
How do you guys not have twisters?

I missed the double down so much that I decided to make one at home, but I ended up making cordon bleu instead.

I never had the Double Down but /ck/ lit up and was funny as hell back when it first came out. I can’t believe it was 2013.

But I finally had it last month and I was very disappointed. Something about it just tasted off, it was less than the sum of its parts somehow.

KFC used to be a rare treat but I’ve had it maybe 6 times in the last few months and the appeal has steadily declined. I’ve gotten the famous chicken sandwich box meal and everything tastes the same: the sandwich, the chicken strip, the popcorn chicken and even the fries. They taste like the same fried shitty taste. I’ll try it one more time but instead get my old stalwart friend the Spicy Zinger and see how that goes and if I don’t like it I’ll go off it for a while.

The first time I had the famous sandwich I thought it was great but it quickly deteriorated. I really like their ranch dip though and I’m not normally a ranch person

>>16898817
when it showed up in america around 1996, it was the best, but it's not like your pic.
two tendies, lettuce, tomato and peppered mayo on a big tortilla

>>16898817
My local fried chicken restaurant still does fried chicken wraps.

>>16896255
what do you mean KFC doesn't have the twister anymore? We even have them here in australia, at the asshole of the world

>>16897557
just looking at that has me sweaty with a sore left arm

>>16898817
imagine my shock that pommy Twisters look a bit nicer than the ones here in straya

>>16897749
posts like this are why /ck/ is my very favourite board

>>16896251
Do Amerifats really?

>>16903320
for two decades now!
there must be something afoot here because it's so simple
I'm willing to bet their bone in chicken sales had dropped since the release of the twister so they fucking axed it
FUCK KFC

>>16896251
>>16896255
These are both on the menu where I live. Double down is way overrated or maybe my local kfc just oversalts the shit out of them. Twister is divine though.

>>16904811
>oversalts the shit
that's just kfc chicken. so salty but good.
this is another reason I'm so bitter. other's might get it, kfc express may have it, but the majority get to remember it
is your local kfc in usa?, is it "express kfc"?

>>16897798
I don't think the spicy chicken sandwich is even called zinger outside aus.

>>16904864
It's called Zinger almost everywhere outside the US

>>16896251
why did they even call the rebooted item the same thing (at least in US idk what happened elsewhere)

>original double down
>two (double) chicken patties with cheese and bacon and sauce etc

>rebooted double down
>one (singular, not double) chicken patty with whatever ingredients on one (not double) bun

but this year all of a sudden selling a chicken sandwich is novel to these people?

>>16905221
Here in Canada, the Double Down is still made with two chicken breasts.

>>16897557
All of the Wendy's near me are consistently good despite living in a moderately shit area. It's like the beef version of Chickfila.

>>16896251

>>16905237
>Wendy's
what if the ol' gal rebooted the double down becuase they want the profits kfc tosses
I only say this because of the coldbloodedness of the twitter sometimes, also I never tried the DD

>>16905237
in my area only the one closest to my house is good. it's staffed by a bunch of niggers who couldn't get hired anywhere else, however there is this older white guy who I believe is the manager, he's always the person on the drivethru taking orders and bagging/checking orders before they go out. I've heard him yelling in there a few times so I assume he's kind of a hardass but it seems like it works. my order is rarely wrong there, compared to others near me that are absolute shit. that also could be because like two years ago they got shit wrong all the time and I would circle back around or go inside and make them fix it or give me what was missing, so now when I mobile order he probably knows my name and makes sure or some shit lmao

>>16897557
I used to eat these before cross country meats. I threw up a lot. I was a dumb kid.

I’m an even dumber adult. I had a quintuple baconator on my birthday last year.

>>16897620
Cholesterol is a meme. Go for a run and it’s gone. Ezpz.

>>16896255
>twister
Its been in my country in standard menu for 30yrs kek

>>16896251
Had two of my boys working at KFC during these times and we would blaze and hit up the drive through and get like 6 of these in a box

>>16905655
how many fucking brown people do you see in a day?
I see zero in a whole week. it's worth it with that kind of piece of mind.
KEK these nuts bitch

>>16905667
>my boys
those are the best. I would give out handfuls of monopoly winning food prizes and was hailed,
I had an uncle at DQ and no matter how busy it was I could stand in line and get a huge twist dipped in crunch then dipped in cherry.
after attacking that cherry crunch shit I would plop the ice cream on the ground and devour the cone portion
and that was when shit was cheap, I need to pass along some nugs or something to get me some "boys" in my corner again

>>16902239
i think it was 2011 when it came out in the US. i remember that because i very nearly got in a fatal car accident in december 2011 and then got a double down right afterwards while shaking and crying

>>16905060
I don't know if it's the same thing but kfc had a zinger sandwich here like 20 years ago. it was a bun with tendies on it and spicy sauce and lettuce. they got rid of it after a while, I think around the time they dropped popcorn chicken for the 2nd time.

>>16896251
Was? It's here now.

>>16902239
>Something about it just tasted off
usually if they havnt changed the grease in long enough it had this bitter aftertaste

>>16906329
I think that's what we call the Double Tender in Canada. The Zinger has a single piece of spicy seasoned chicken breast

Still has breading on it, but it's a reasonable amount. Much healthier than every other sandwich. Always throw away at least one half of the bun of your sandwiches. This is far less wasteful.

>>16906329
>dropped popcorn chicken

They wouldn't

>>16905667
God damn I miss those days. Smoking weed, driving around, eating fast food, laughing about nonsense and having very little responsibilities.

it was called the triple crunch

>>16896251
Just had it for the first time yesterday. It was surprisingly decent but the bacon was laughably thin.

>>16897749
>I’ll come forward and say I accidentally killed two people in a car crash after I blew a red light while looking for a KFC during my lunch break to get a double down during its zenith. Thank christ for good lawyers, but sometimes I still feel bad.

Based.

Did you end up trying it at least? Did the blood on your hands make it taste even better or was it bitter from you conscience?

Look at the oily sweat on that cheddar. Not melting even when tucked into an envelope of hot meat. Great sandwich otherwise.
