Pizza Hut /KFC popcorn chicken pizza
Anyone try this yet? Corn on the pizza and KFC gravy instead of marinara sauce
I'm serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer.

Well kfc is already unhealthy as its all fried but if you compare popcorn chicken to their other items in equal weights it is higher in calories, sodium, fat etc.playnicee1 wrote: ↑ Why is it unhealthy?

Actually, is the popcorn chicken already cooked? Or is it cooked with the pizza, making it baked, not fried? Sounds to me like you don't have all the facts.

I said the popcorn chicken is the most unhealthy item on the KFC menu you then asked why and I told you exactly why. Did I purport to say anything about the pizza itself?playnicee1 wrote: ↑ Actually, is the popcorn chicken already cooked? Or is it cooked with the pizza, making it baked, not fried?

I highly doubt popcorn chicken pizza is as bad as you make it out to be. Just don't eat it every day if it's such a big deal. Live a little. Treat yourself a little.WMPCOT wrote: ↑ I said the popcorn chicken is the most unhealthy item on the KFC menu you then asked why and I told you exactly why.

Further even if the popcorn chicken isn't fried on site, it will be when it was prepared at the factory and then even if baked will remain unhealthy.

Of course anything in moderation is fine but the fact remains on the KFC menu the most unhealthy item is the popcorn chicken.playnicee1 wrote: ↑ I highly doubt popcorn chicken pizza is as bad as you make it out to be.

Youre in a fried chicken junk food thread. Read the room!

Actually, that is fairly common. In most threads about KFC meatless chicken, people feel free to take shots at vegans.

I wasn't knocking fried foods simply stating it is one of if not the most unhealthy thing on the menu, add that to pizza and it has the makings for something special just like the double down.

Well no, you didn't say why. What's the measure of qualification for popcorn chicken being the unhealthiest item at KFC? Calories? Cholesterol? Sodium?

I did say if you compare equal weights. I made a statement knowing the facts and I shouldn't have to spoon feed everyone the answers if you disagree thats fine do the math and figure it out.Mulder and Scully wrote: ↑ Well no, you didn't say why.

Looking at kfc.ca and using their standard serving size portions:
- A small popcorn chicken is 370 calories.
- 3 pieces original recipe chicken tenders is 300 calories.
- 2 pieces original recipe chicken is 360 calories.
- The chicken sandwich is 520 calories.
- The poutine is 720 calories.
So really you're in the middle there. Though it's obvious you made a blind statement without having supporting evidence for your claim.

I agree that a calories per weight is a good apples to apples comparison. That certainly makes sense when shopping for groceries or controlling for meal portions. In this scenario you're indeed correct that the popcorn chicken is the unhealthiest KFC item.WMPCOT wrote: ↑ As you can see when you compare things properly (weight for weight) popcorn chicken is more unhealthy, feel free to look up fat and sodium levels as well the same holds true. When comparing things it is important to compare apples to apples. I would say you are not using a proper comparison to give your argument more weight.

I see your point. I was merely making a fact based observation and for some reason that made some members upset. The fact is that it is the most unhealthy option in their lineup, I wasn't even speaking of the pizza itself. I made a statement and I had the facts to back it up, I could have provided them but I didn't feel like hand holding. I don't speak out of my ass (which I was accused of), unless I know something for certain I won't comment on it.Mulder and Scully wrote: ↑ I agree that a calories per weight is a good apples to apples comparison.

But customers order and eat restaurants' food based on serving sizes, not by per 100g sizes. Restaurants list their items' nutrition value on a per serving basis. Similarly, packaged foods give their nutrition value based on expected serving size. Is it a common scenario for people ordering from KFC and thinking, "Well the poutine is 210 calories per 100 grams compared to the popcorn chicken which is 301 calories per 100 grams. Therefore the poutine is healthier and I'll order and eat that 720 calories rather than the popcorn chicken's 370 calories."
I agree with you on the calories per weight idea, but it's not a realistic scenario when ordering from restaurants. Bringing up comparable weights was silly to begin with.
And so what if popcorn chicken is KFC's unhealthiest item? If KFC removes it then the next item on the calories/100g will become the unhealthiest.
And so what if Pizza Hut is using KFC popcorn chicken as a pizza topping? If Pizza Hut used say KFC chicken tenders or poutine is the argument then that it's "healthier"? Of course not.
