And dude paid out the *** for two of them. At the local KFC they advertise them for $4.59 each, so in Canada I bet they are pushing $5. So $10+ for two "sandwiches", no thanks

Tito and I reviewed them on launch day in the states. They're not very good. Pretty messy. Too salty (at least the "grilled" on is). And not nearly enough bacon. It's a great idea, but poorly executed, IMO.

Except for the lack of bacon, I don't see what Tito wouldn't like.

I think he liked them more than I did. But the cost is kind of absurd. To be completely honest, you'd be better served grilling up some chicken and making them yourself. Much better tasting and certainly cheaper.

Maybe if they lower the price, but they weren't what i was expecting.

Blech.

I like f**king carbs man, the bun on a sandwich is a plus, not something to be engineered away.

I dunno what you guys are on about, but the one I had a few months back wasn't bad.

Maybe you need more brown people at your KFC?

being that it's been almost a year since i've boycotted KFC, i won't be trying these. the idea does have potential to be tasty though, but probably not by the hands of KFC.

I had one open day in us also. I got the fried one and a side of gravy to dip it in(waiting on the man gravy comments). I figured it was unhealthy enough I may as well go for a full blown heart attack. I thought it was pretty good but I haven't eaten one since. More of a novelty thing than something you would eat on the regular I would hope.
