What is a burger? 2 pieces of bread with ingredients in the middle. But, we use the term burger because they have a burger bun, rather than 2 slices of bread, so when you ask for a burger, you know what you're getting. And I'm going to be very controversial here. A hotdog is a sandwich.

The burgers are to die for, double tender is my favourite, but I also like original recipe burger. The gravy and mashed potatoes compliment the chips nicely, and you can use a dinner roll to soak up all that gravy. The only thing I don't like is there are no dessert options, besides the double chocolate mousse. Pretty boring dessert tbh.

I've always favoured mcdonalds growing up because i would get the happy meal while my parents got a zinger box from kfc, so kfc was kind of like the 'adult mcdonalds' for me. but i've come to be more drawn towards kfc now considering you get more for cheaper plus it just feels better to be eating than mcdonalds. Also i was originally supposed to just say that i want to try american kfc. I've never been to the US before either but one day i'd love to visit it. And i'm normally the type of person to not really spot any difference between the same foods from different countries so i'm curious about that too.

Honestly they did Australia dirty by not showing and explaining the importance of the zinger box.... and how they have broken the hearts of many hungover legends out there by changing the 3 wicked wings to stupid boneless pieces 😤

[@Sevicify]

You can still get the 3 wicked wings, you just need to ask them for a Zinger Box with wicked wings (or you could ask for a single original piece, I often like to get a breast or rib piece in mine). Mind you it was utterly dumb how they changed the default option to the boneless pieces and you have to explicitly asked for wings. This caught me and my brother out one night where we only got two wicked wings instead of three, I noticed in the drive thru but he distracted me about the drinks and drove off before I could tell him about the missing wings. We decided to keep going instead of turning back, he rang the KFC about 15 minutes later to complain and they said we ordered boneless pieces because we didn't specify wings. We complained that was stupid and asked why we got wings instead of boneless, they argued we got boneless so we said we can send you a picture of the bones, that quickly shut her up and she said we could go back to get it fixed up but at that point we were long gone so she sent us a code for some free wings at a later date.

[@samtaholo]

KFC in Australia used to have corn on the cob, many many moons ago. I miss that so much! Also, my guess regarding the seaweed extract is that it adds umami to the fried chicken (though I wonder if the 'flavour enhancer' in the list of ingredients could be MSG, which serves the same purpose).

Here in Canada our KFC menu is quite stripped down compared to these two, but we do have two items that are standouts: 1) The "Famous Chicken Burger" - which is ginormous and meant to compete with Popeye's.

As someone living in Australia for long time and originally from Taiwan, It's always exciting to see creativity and variety in food options, Taiwan's KFC is really pushing the boundaries with their menu. Hopefully, we'll see more diverse and creative offerings here in Australia too - who knows, maybe KFC will take some inspiration and spice things up Down Under! Cheers to hoping for some exciting new flavors! 🌶🍗 In Taiwan KFC they have following varities: Roasted Chicken: Imagine perfectly roasted chicken with that crispy skin and tender meat. It's a game-changer, seriously. Portuguese Tarts: Yep, you read that right. KFC here serves up these delightful Portuguese tarts - flaky pastry filled with creamy custard. They're so indulgent! Peanut Butter Cheese Fry Chicken: Sounds wild, right? But trust me, it works. Picture this: juicy chicken coated in a crunchy peanut butter and cheese crust. It's a flavor combo you didn't know you needed until now. Roasted Chicken Burger: Forget the regular old burger - this one takes it up a notch. Juicy roasted chicken served up in a soft bun with all the fixings. It's a taste sensation, it comes in two main flaviour the original roasted or roasted with spicy coating. Sweet Potato Chips: Move over, regular fries. KFC here offers sweet potato chips that are crispy on the outside and oh-so-fluffy on the inside. They're the perfect sidekick to any meal. Each of these options brings something unique to the table, and the flavors are out of this world. It's got me thinking - why doesn't Australia's KFC offer more creative choices like these? With so much potential for deliciousness, it's time for KFC Down Under to step up their game and give us Aussies a taste of the extraordinary. Trust me, once you try these flavors, you'll be hooked! And guess what? The deliciousness doesn't stop there! Taiwan's KFC even has a breakfast menu that'll make your mornings ten times better. Get ready for some serious breakfast envy: Omelette Sandwich: Start your day right with a fluffy omelette sandwiched between two slices of soft bread. It's the perfect blend of savory and satisfying. Oatmeal Meal: Need a wholesome breakfast option? Look no further than KFC's oatmeal meal. It's warm, comforting, and packed with goodness to fuel your day. Hash Browns: Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside - KFC's hash browns are the ultimate breakfast sidekick. They're so addictive, you'll want to order extras. Egg Wrap: Take your breakfast to-go with KFC's egg wrap. It's a delicious combination of scrambled eggs, cheese, and your choice of fillings, all wrapped up in a soft tortilla. And of course, they still offer their famous fried chicken varieties for breakfast because, let's be honest, who wouldn't want to start their day with some finger-lickin' goodness? I don't know about you, but just thinking about these breakfast options has me drooling. It's like KFC here has cracked the code for the perfect morning meal. Australia's KFC could definitely take a leaf out of their book and expand their breakfast menu to include some of these mouthwatering options. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on these mouthwatering options. Let's hope Australia's KFC takes note and spices things up a bit!

You could have tried the superchared slider....the superchared sauce is on there i think

KFC in Australia? Brittany well done! Unfortunately for US KFC, those wings are discontinued, how sad

[@infinitedeath1384]

Honestly, chicken breast and legs are better imo, and I've eaten many chicken wings as well from KFC.

[@paradoxfacter8707]

Im pretty sure we actually did have pie here in Australia but as a limited release because i remember order a few along side the discontinued crushers.

[@alicewaria6215]

The chips on the crunch burger is corn chips

[@infinitedeath1384]

It tastes nice, but it's too crunchy. I prefer soft burgers, the double tender burger is my favourite.

Awesome job joe .

That's a good pun at 9:35 😂😂 I love and do miss popcorn chicken nuggets at KFC. I have had them since childhood. I will never forget about it 😞😊

[@bradsharp1803]

We used to have zinger pies in Aus, they didn't around for long. Also ive only ever got 24 pack nuggets must be a limited time thing I guess.

[@douglasmijangos3327]

Yeah those Chocolate cakes are delicious… I remember not too long ago they had the Meal wit a Free Cake .. around 2008 🤦🏻‍♂️ never mind.. that was a loooonng ass time ago

Seaweed extract is the same as what they do in Japan. It adds flavour (umami)

Yep, MSG by another name

KFC in Australia was at its best for taste in the late 90's early 2000's, before they changed the oil it's cooked in and they also had Tender Roast chicken. Now they have a lot more options, although the taste isn't the same.

[@nathankelleher]

I’m Australian, was just in the UK over Christmas. One thing the Brit KFC does better than us is they toast their crunch wraps. Tastes so much better and holds everything together nicely 👍

[@MrRhysReviews]

This woman constantly saying "Chicken Sandwich" is doing my head in... Chicken BURGER, no one calls that a Sandwich here WOMAN 😡 🤣 Edit: Oh, NOW she's started calling them Burgers... Correctly 😂

[@infinitedeath1384]

Yep, calling them burgers is part of our culture. But, I hope you know that burgers are a type of sandwich, just like how toasties are a type of sandwich, or how a foot long sub is a type of sandwich. Sandwich is a generic term, burger, toasty, sub, are specific.

[@postaldude24]

We used to have the famous bowl in Australia but they've gotten rid of it and never brought it back, quite a shame since I loved it.

[@kierenmoore3236]

Really? How many years ago was that?!

[@postaldude24]

@@kierenmoore3236 If I had to go off memory it was probably around 2007 - 2008?

[@stuotaku]

In Australia several years ago they came out with chicken coated in Louisiana red bean chili. It was pretty good and spicy, but only for limited time and it never came back again.

[@Orlak3lly]

Got caught watching this in work! Apparently my boss is a secret Food Wars fan

You should have talked about the Go Buckets

[@philgoodinc2]

"I would have liked to try the supercharged sauce" but completely ignores the supercharged slider and the zinger stacker burger that had the sauce in it. Then the Mountain Dew freeze tasking like Solo? Fix your tastebuds, it has ZERO lemony flavour. Absolute sacrilege.

[@shaggyirl]

The supercharged sauce is a spicy sauce so it basically gives a nice spicy kick to the food

[@mattc9096]

Just remember, there are two separate companies trading as KFC in Aus, which is why Hot'n'Spicy is available full time in QLD and NT.

[@thecunninlynguist]

some interesting differences..I miss the Zinger in the US.

[@FatGitLovesThe80s]

Having moved from the UK to the US, I miss the zinger tower burger, that was awesome.

[@WheelzGaming88]

It's crazy how fast new comments pop up! It goes to show how popular this channel and series is 💯

[@crystalviolet4652]

Aus has a 2 piece feed too, it’s just not advertised, but it’s on the menu

[@angusmacgyver1390]

Another one Australian KFC has is the Hot'n'Spicy Chicken same cuts as regular pieces, it has a crispy crunchy coating and has a dusting inner coating of spicy powder, this is readily available in QLD and NT outlets but only seems to be in winter in NSW and VIC if your luck for about 2 weeks. Another Note Australian nuggets are more processed and similar McDonald's in this regard, not cut chicken pieces like the US ones

[@fcbarcelona5044]

Aussies KFC is so much better 🥵🤧 knowing I have been in USA and Aussie but Aussie is best

[@mrdonnyb6704]

KFC Has gotten so expensive in the USA and the combo meals in watching this have gotten smaller because you used to be able to get two sides with your meal standard was two pieces of chicken, a biscuit, mashed potatoes and gravy and coleslaw

[@lorla85]

If you look on the app, it’s almost hidden, the do have a $10 8 piece bucket of chicken! That is my ultimate go to! 😃

[@Threadworxs]

As an Aussie who tried USA 'biscuits' .. they struck me as a peppery-tasting scone .. but the flavour varied everywhere .. so it came down to the cook/chef where you were getting them. Our 'scones' are neutral tasting dough, usually paired with strawb jam & cream ... (personally I like lots butter and honey on my scones ;) ) ...

[@stuartgmk]

👍

[@harvsgriffiths3336]

I miss a couple of the limited addition burgers .. the New Orleans burger, and the one where there was a black burger bun 😊 Also, we need the crispy strips and satay sauce back too ..

[@stuotaku]

I don't trust those black buns. Had one once and my shit came out a really weird colour

[@penguindrum264]

US KFC sucks too, but is delicious in various Caribbean countries. I've heard New Zealand KFC is pretty good and that India's KFC is mediocre. Popeye's is where it's at imo.

[@Pinkaristotle]

US KFC is crap but the KFC in the Caribbean is absolutely amazing

[@paulgerrard9227]

Australia doesnt have ranch sauce. Anywhere for anything. Its a us thing. You dint eplain solo the drink. Its an australian legend. Its a strong lemon drink.

[@hazridge]

You can find ranch at some places in Australia. Subway has it now as a regular topping. It's not nearly as popular here of course but "anywhere for anything"?

[@siriusvittorio2099]

It's technically also on the McCrispy burger at Maccas. First time I've had the sauce, don't recommend

[@Dugie555]

I wish the Gold mini siders were to come back, and the Famous Bowl is pretty good. Always interesting to see how each country interprets big fast food companies. 🍗 👏 😋

[@kero292]

FYI, ITS NOT CHICKEN SANDWICH, ITS CHICKEN BURGER!

[@Ms70swildchild]

Way back in the 1970s I worked at a Kentucky Fried Chicken. Everyone knew the best side was to mix the individual mashed potatoes and gravy with the coleslaw. I didn't like chicken until I worked there and discovered breast meat. For desserts we not only had the Little Bucket Parfaits but also homemade pies made by the owner's mother. The mashed potatoes were just instant flakes. Also, we made the coleslaw in big tubs where we mixed the dressing with the slaw mix using hands and arms. The tubs were so deep we would be up to our elbows in slaw and dressing (literally). Apparently, our location was so good that some bigwigs from corporate came to visit. This was before Yum Brands took over. We didn't have a drive-thru however, we could get people in and out in 2 minutes on $5 bucket nights. Mind you with 100% accuracy on the orders. I know this because our manager timed us one night.

[@lorla85]

As an American, I really loved the hot wings! That was sooo good last summer! I love the KFC sauce, I do enjoy the original chicken the best. I like the pot pie, but the new smashed potato bowl is pretty bad! The sandwiches are pretty good, but most of the sides and biscuits are not the greatest…

[@burgerboyben1373]

Australia KGC did have the pie as a promo some time back

[@specialk6239]

Watching an Aussie calling it a chicken sandwich instead of burger is just weird

[@Terrelli9]

I love these! Excited for this one because I think I’m the US we have the most boring KFC, even though it’s from here.

[@gardevoirmaster5743]

They need a Canadian tester cause where I am we still got the popcorn chicken yummm. We also have poutine like everywhere

[@user-ev1eh1vh5r]

[@Bonecrusher1022]

Wow that US KFC looks disgusting. It's never like that at my location. I wish they weren't so expensive these days. I miss the $5 boxes. Now they're like $8-9. Also rest in piece to the potato wedges :(

[@lorla85]

I really miss the potato wedges as well! I can get fries anywhere so why did KFC have to get them? 😢
