These look like a damn tasty idea to me, though I’d never get one. However, the nutritional profile is not quite as bad as I expected (it’s still bad, just not _as bad_ as I would have thought). How big are they? The real key here is the “serving size.” The website cites one serving as 490 gms. Is that the size of one bowl? Or does one bowl have more than one serving?

It sounds like the majority thinks this is a pretty nifty idea, so I guess KFC knows their market.

Well, 60% of Americans are overweight/obese, so it really isn’t that surprising. They don’t get that way on veggies.

490gms is quite a lot of food… about the weight of 5 apples. I’d guess that a bowl would weigh about that much…

Revolutionary breakthrough!

My wife picked up Famous Bowls last night, but since wasn’t all that hungry I only ate half of it.

Now, dinner two nights ago was homemade tacos, and there was a good bit of taco meat left over.

Wanna guess what I just had for lunch? 😃
