The long and short about That Sucky Piece of Chicken

I have a very, very sad piece of news for everyone today: The new KFC O.R. Chicken Chop sucks big time. And I don’t mean that in a good way.

To their credit, I think the marketing team did a superb job with the O.R. chicken print ad. When I saw that big juicy piece of chicken coated with delightful looking mushroom sauce on a poster last week, I told myself I must get my teeth on that wonderful looking thing come what may.

Alas, great expectations are usually accompanied with great disappointments. In fact, ‘disappointment’ is an understatement because the O.R. Chicken Chop sucks so much, I’m considering boycotting KFC for an indefinite period of time. Now that is a big deal for me, considering how much I adore KFC.

Anyway, here’s a blow-by-blow review of why the O.R. Chicken Chop sucks:


1) The Price:
My date with O.R. started on a wrong footing when I learnt at the ordering counter that the damn meal cost a whopping $5.95. Considering that I can get a two-piece meal with two sides and a drink at that price, this chicken chop thingy better be worth my money.

2) The Size:
The size of the chicken chop is in inverse proportion with its container, which was large. I reckoned it’s probably the same size as the chicken patty you get in a Zinger. Tamade.

3) The Sauce:
The ‘specially-made mushroom gravy’, as claimed by KFC, tasted suspiciously similar to the whipped potato gravy. I took a few more bites before I discovered my error. Silly me, it’s not whipped potato gravy. It’s whipped potato gravy with chopped button mushrooms. Heh.

4) The Chicken Chop:
I felt like I was eating a piece of supersized nugget that was deep-fried twice over. Or maybe thrice. Or maybe many many many times over.


I could go on and on about how bad it is, but really, words are not enough to describe my disdain and disgust. In fact, it being so indescribably bad, I suggest everyone go try a piece of the very sucky O.R. Chicken Chop, just to discover for yourself how sucky it is.

But I guess it’s just as well. In view of my coming career as a model/actor, I really should start watching my weight.
