Battle KFC: Traditional Famous Bowl vs. New Cheesy Bacon Bowl
![]() |
The Contenders
Traditional Famous Bowl:Resembling a sodium-packed sundae, the traditional bowl starts with a ridiculous amount of mashed potatoes smothered in gravy and corn. Then, it is topped with some chicken-tender chunks and sprinkled with just a splash of cheese.
Cheesy Bacon Bowl:
Really, the only difference between the cheesy bacon bowl and the traditional bowl is the addition of the bacon. But therein lies the problem. There is hardly any fried swine to be found in this bowl. Ditto the "blend of three cheeses" that would make this dish as "cheesy" as advertised.
The Verdict:

So, which bowl won? Suffice to say, we weren't bowled over by either one of them. But if we must declare a winner -- and we must, darn it! -- then we'll give it to the cheesy bacon bowl.
