Lol. Any chicken cooked for the public -- ie, KFC, Chick Fil A, whatever restaurant. I've gotten sick on chicken too many times to count. I only trust chicken that I clean, trim, & cook. Oddity, I know.
And I had tried convincing H to get KFC for lunch. He went to Wendy's instead. I think I'm gonna have him pick me up some KFC for dinner since I am reminded that I still want it after this thread.

Extra crispy, for the mouth feel. Sometimes I get an extra piece just to eat the coating off it. I'm not actually a huge fan of the chicken, but nobody does extra crispy like the Colonel.

I have fond memories of a bucket of extra crispy KFC on the beach* for dinner on summer nights. I got the leg, sometimes a thigh. Sigh. I don't live by the beach anymore. I'm sad for DD.
* And sometimes my hands were sandy, so a little got in the chicken. I didn't even mind.

Extra crispy.
BUT
I like the seasoning on the original. Yes, I realize they probably use the same seasoning on the extra crispy, but it doesn't taste the same. Extra crispy needs more of the Original seasoning.
Also, the sides need to be the mashed potatoes with gravy and mac and cheese. Mixed together.
Oh, and Pizza Hut and Dominos. Dominos if I'm feeling lazy and ordering in. Pizza Hut if I want something a little more classy and don't mind going out to pick it up. Our Pizza Hut doesn't deliver.

Team extra crispy. My DH and I have the same argument. He says extra crispy is too unhealthy As if original is that much better. If you're going to eat fried chicken, go all the way!

This exactly.
And miso, have you been to Gus's Fried Chicken yet? TN chicken joint that opened on Crenshaw and Pico, super crispy skin and juicy meat!
Seriously! I have never eaten KFC so I'm not sure if it's gross like I imagine, but the skin on fried chicken is the shit. It's the POINT! I don't know how crispy original is, but I have a feeling I'd side with you here. This isn't helpful.
