So this is about kfc, so it's clearly an example of a corporation being cheap af and diminishing quality. But like, on the lighter more social side of things, I dunno. This kind of speaks to the fact that as Americans we have a totally distorted view of how big animals are. Also, we have no concept of what reasonable portion sizes are. I think smaller pieces of fried chicken is probably a good thing for most of us healthwise lol. Ideally, it would reflect more responsible chicken farming. I mean, this is kfc, so I know that's not the case here. But in general, I don't see any real downsides to smaller pieces of fried chicken. We eat too much as it is lol.

I have had fried chicken in other countries. This is too small. And in terms of portions you are way off base.

You don't see any downsides? If that's really a chicken leg and not quail or pigeon or some other smaller bird, then KFC must be killing underage chickens for the legs to be that damn small.

Go to Church's Chicken or Popeyes, or pretty much any other chicken place and the legs are easily twice as big and pretty clearly came from mature chickens.

Kentucky Fried Chicken-flavored meat product.

LOL, almost wouldn't even surprise me.

Your reading comprehension needs some work. I explicitly said that this is clearly a case of diminishing quality, which could be attributed to the example you listed or any one of many other terrible corporate practices. Then I said in a social sense, I don't see a downside to the general idea of Americans eating less fried chicken. I was elaborating past the original point of the post.

I don't know if you've ever seen a chicken before but they are definitely not this small. This also isn't a reasonable portion size bro that's a penny.

KFC had hot wings for a while and this looks like one of them
