I know exactly what you mean. My wife and I went to KFC also and both of us
got that nasty, vile chicken. I wiped some of the coating off the roof of
my mouth with a napkin and was very, very disappointed with it. It was very
salty tasting, too. At least the green beans were halfway decent. My wife
was looking forward to the chicken also (she is not low carbing) and was
quite disappointed herself. We were joking as we left by saying to people
(under our breaths) not to get the nasty chicken.

Huge disappointment.

I just get regular fried chicken and give the skin and crunchies to Crash.
Thanks to everyone who warned me against the new-fangled, vile chicken.

I like to cook whole chicken on my gas BBQ. Two Chickens back down, in a
stainless steel, and a whole lemon pricked full of holes and inserted into
each bird. If you have fresh rosemary, put that inside also. I tastes
delicious every time. Don't forget to baste.

I was there (KFC) a few days ago (yeah, I know it isn't low carb, I
was
picking up dinner but not for myself) and they had a sign up for oven
roasted marinated chicken of some sort...that might be pretty
comparable
to
the rotisserie chicken.

Not quite. The rotisserie chicken would be much better tasting (even
without spices) than the new oven roasted chicken they are selling
now. I had this just the other day. The strips were small (seemed a
little dried out, but that could've been just the KFC I bought them
at.) They had a coating on them that stuck to the roof of your mouth
and left a bad, bad after taste. Horrible!

I would never buy them again, and wouldn't even advise others to.
Unless of course you want to find out how horrible they are.

I talked to the manager of that KFC, they basically said the same
thing - they don't even want them in their store, but have to sell
them because they are a KFC product.

And, they are expensive. I think I'll stick to roasting my own
chicken here at home!

Try getting a chicken that is cut in half (or butterflied), then,
baste it with a little olive oil and spices. Turn the oven on to 350
degrees F. Every 15 min, turn the chicken over. Like having your own
rotissiere. Just cook it until done, I think mine took about 45
min. The skin turned out really crisp and the meat was tender - fall
off the bone tender.
I think the whole chicken costs less than $5.

And how many of those "nasty, vile chicken" pieces did you eat?

One... I had two servings of green beans so I got to at least have
something to eat. I think I ate something else when I got home, but it was
so long ago, I don't remember if it was a hamburger patty or what.
