Fried Chicken…Hold The Chicken?

This CANNOT be good for you, right?  Look, I know you can purchase-just the Lucky Charms marshmallows.  I know you can purchase-just the Crunchberries from Captain Crunch. But I don’t…

SAN RAFAEL, CA – OCTOBER 30: A bucket of KFC Extra Crispy fried chicken is displayed October 30, 2006 in San Rafael, California. KFC is phasing out trans fats and plans to use zero trans fat soybean oil for cooking of their Original Recipe and Extra Crispy fried chicken as well as other menu items. KFC expects to have all of its 5,500 restaurants in the U.S. switched to the new oil by April 2007. (Photo Illustration by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)

This CANNOT be good for you, right?  Look, I know you can purchase-just the Lucky Charms marshmallows.  I know you can purchase-just the Crunchberries from Captain Crunch.

But I don't think those will clog your arteries! ;)

KFC is giving the people what they want when it comes to their menu-at least overseas.  They are now offering fried chicken skin in select locations overseas.

That's right, "I'd like an order of Extra Crispy...hold the yardbird."

Customers and Indonesia and Bangkok are the first ones to have it on their menu.vvPeople who have had the fried chicken skins describe it as tasty, but salty.

Would you buy fried chicken skins?  Do you think the media would EVER allow them to do this in America?
