Order tips
- · Order pieces + green beans — still crispy KFC without a Famous Bowl.
- · Drumsticks are easy portion control; gravy stays off the tray.
- · Grilled chicken where available is the weeknight upgrade.
- · Skip biscuits if sodium is the priority — the chicken is the star.
- · One solid dinner plate beats mashed + gravy + crispy bits in a bowl.
