Do you like KFC





https://www.sacbee.com/news/nation-world/national/article257125152.html

KFC is adding plant-based chicken to its menus nationwide this week.

Last week, the Kentucky-based chicken chain announced the impending arrival of its new Beyond Fried Chicken, developed by meat substitutes company Beyond Meat exclusively for KFC. The Kentucky Fried Miracle will debut at participating restaurants on Monday, Jan. 10.

3) KFC is bottom tier fried chicken

Also I'll be surprised if this chicken is any good. I had some vegan chicken burgers the other day and I think they were singlehandedly responsible for me giving up on veganuary.

Linda McCartney southern fried chicken burgers I think. First bite I was like "eh it's alright" but then by the end I felt ill and continued to do so for the rest of the night. Just in a nauseated "that wasn't something I should have eaten" way. Not in a "my stomach is protesting" way.

I have no desire to go vegan, but I would in a New York minute if my health depended on it. And if I ever did I wouldnt bother with fake meat.

Yeah, every time I try veganuary I tell myself "no fake meat, it always sucks" then I inevitably try some kind and it either makes me give up or at the very least ruins a day or two with how joyless it is.

Chicken skin is a necessary part of the eating experience. Whether it's plant based or lab grown, no skin = not good enough.

Beyond Fried Chicken will be available for a limited time only, while supplies last. But Kevin Hochman, CEO of KFC, says hes optimistic it will be a sustainable success.

We expect itll sell out, he said. Based on the speed of that sell-out and customer reaction, thatll determine what our plans will be next. But our intent isnt to be one and done. KFCs parent company, Yum! Brands, which also owns Taco Bell and Pizza Hut, has entered into an agreement with Beyond Meat to launch more products, including a plant-based carne asada at Taco Bell.

Looks like Taco Bell is next. Plant-based carne asada.

Plant-based meat has come a long way.

There is a brand called Gardein that is very tasty. Beyond Meat is another company that continues to improve its products.

Quorn "chicken" patties are pretty good. They taste better than Tyson frozen chicken nuggets at any rate but I wouldn't say they taste like "actual meat"

I've heard a lot of my family sing the praises of vegetarian chicken nuggets. "It tastes more like chicken than actual chicken nuggets". But I think the egg they tend to have helps a lot with flavour. Good plant based ones are rarer, although my family had some vegan ones the other day they didn't mind.

Taste and texture are close but still a bitoff.

They're alright. I wouldn't clock it as fake cheese, but it doesn't really resemble mozzarella either. Creamy and oily.

I dunno, I feel like it needs at least one more color. Maybe some red peppers, or some kind of sauce on the 'meat'.

Not to say corn on the cob isn't excellent completely plain, but for a photograph it needs some kind of melted butter/margarine/substitute melting into the crevices.
