mmm....assy

I tried that KFC oven roasted strips meal today. In the immortal words of Mr. Horse on Ren & Stimpy: "No sir, I didn't like it."

I'm not sure which was worst...the shake-n-bakeish outer coating of the chicken, the gluey texture of the rice, or the--brace yourself--PIMENTOS IN THE GREEN BEANS.

THEY PUT PIMENTOS WITH THE BEANS. People, my hatred of pimentos runs deep. So deep that I don't even care enough to look up the word to see if I'm spelling it right (it's either pimentos or pimientos--those noxious red things with which green olives and lunch meat loaves are ruined). Those of you that know my spelling-bee-winning history know just how deep that is.

The biscuit was the best thing about the meal, and I had to pay extra for it. Sigh. I had such high hopes. At least I only wasted 8 points on it. Probably closer to 6, since I could only stomach about 1/3 of the rice and none of the beans.

(It should be noted that this was just one KFC, and the last time I had beans at a different KFC, they were pimento-free. That's still no excuse for the rest of the meal, which I'm sure is universally ass-tasting. But, your mileage may vary.)
