<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Mamma mia! That\u2019s a spicy… um, Famous Bowl?<\/p>\n
While at a broad glance, a big bowl full of KFC\u2019s famous brown gravy doesn\u2019t look like it would or should<\/em> mix with a moderate size drizzle of its new-ish Nashville Hot sauce all that well, but good God almighty if they don\u2019t make quite the sexy pair of tongue-searing bedfellows.<\/p>\n The Famous Bowl has long been the much maligned trough of just about everything on the menu that, against all odds and most expectations, has managed to stay on KFC\u2019s famed menu for quite a while now despite it being a heaping helping of a dystopic future. And, for $3 bucks, that\u2019s really some budget-friendly mass caloric intake that most of America seems more than comfortable to ease our downfall with.<\/p>\n Like a few of its other, more recent menu additions, KFC is adding a straight bit of heat in the form of said Nashville Hot sauce on the tops of these famous bowls. It creates a unique source of tangy hotness that feels like the exact element these bowls have been missing for so long, freeing it and us from downing basically a big bowl of sodium-heavy mush.<\/p>\n Each plastic bowl, loaded to the hilt with, of course, creamy mashed potatoes, firm sweet corn, and crispy chicken bites, as well as the comforting gravy and three shredded cheeses of varying flavors, are taken to a newer level. Not a proud level, but at the very least, a higher one. Each crunchy chicken bite now has a great kick to it, mingling the gritty pepper with the smooth capsicum, a little bit going a very long way.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a nice little burn that\u2019s totally unexpected and morbidly welcomed, the burn quickly diffusing however with the warm gravy and the warmer mashed potatoes providing a different kind of incandescence. <\/p>\n The heat stays for just a couple of self-torturing beats, the uncomfortability leaving when you\u2019re ready. It\u2019s a nice change of sweltering pace from the usual item of fast food burritos and so on. Not that there\u2019s anything wrong with burritos, of course.<\/p>\n The addition of Nashville hot sauce is such a deserving landmark, one that I honestly would like to see them try in the near future with its Georgia Gold additive as well. Really, KFC, anything you can do to make the body-polluting bowl into a more pleasant diversion of taste, here\u2019s my three dollars, have a prototype on my desk by Monday. <\/p>\n And yes, the irony isn\u2019t lost on me over the fact that the Nashville Hot sauce isn\u2019t as great on the individual chicken bearing its name. However, though it took a few trying months, I think we have a purely Southern victory of taste and flavor that would even make the Colonel stand up in his coffin and give a postmortem salute.
