Chinese KFC was really good before but now its fallen off (the big crunch equivalent is now this tiny rectangle, the chicken isn't as cripsy, and it kinda just tastes like salt) and domestic chains like Tasiting (sort of like if you made a burger but it was actually a fried chicken roujiamo) are really putting pressure on it. Honestly this might be a good thing if it means KFC in China sucks less, its super nostalgic because as a kid it was the "fancy western restaurant" for occasional treats.

China’s food is too good to let these shitty western corporations feed people slop. President Xi please press the nationalization button

For real I could spend 20RMB at most for the best meal I've ever had at a night market stall, or I can pay twice as much for an extremely disappointing burger.

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago

It's really crappy in Australia. Fries are always undercooked and everything just tastes like grease

[-] Gucci_Minh@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

Yeah, and north american KFC is always oddly soggy? Like you fried this right?

Under the terms of the deal, Citic Ltd. and its investment management unit Citic Capital will acquire 52 percent of the business while another partner, Washington-based private equity firm The Carlyle Group, will own 28 percent. McDonald’s will retain a 20 percent stake.

Citic is a SOE.

I watched Paul Jay's Reality Asserts Itself series of interviews with Finkelstein, and they talked about Finkelstein's die hard Maoist youth, with a funny episode about cops going to Finkelstein's house and seeing a bunch of Maoist posters in his room, his mom quickly told the police that Finkelstein liked Chinese people lol. After the death of Mao, the arrest of the Gang of Four, and Deng's reforms, Finkelstein drifted away from Maoism and pretty much Leninism. One of his profs (maybe a lib I don't remember) told Finkelstein that there will be a McDonald's in China soon when Deng opened up. Now if China nationalizes McD's, is that the CPC's turn back towards Socialism? lol

[-] Des@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

it will only make it better. then export the new, more delicious People's Chicken and Burgers to the rest of the world

[-] Speaker@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago

It will be really cool when the government starts really ripping the copper wiring out of the walls and the US gets Hunanese Arby's and whatnot.

Maybe they can partner with that Russian company that took over McDonalds

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

Good, next shut them down so at least one country will have less animal murder slop.

Vaguely related, but I saw the menu of a KFC when I visited China and they had this “chicken taco” that was a giant breaded chicken patty shaped like a taco shell and filled with taco ingredients. It was pretty out of control and Xi should put a stop to that sort of thing.
