Is this some kind of a sick joke?

Well I'm in no way going to comment on about the food being for however many people, but that price is still horribly high to me. Then again I'm not big on fried chicken so I couldn't tell you the comparable prices of Popeye's and Church's. I like simple food and I like cheap, so normally when I'm going to eat fast food, I stop at BK, order two-three rodeo cheese burgers(they run a bit small) and a drink. I think they're $1.50ish so it's cheap and it hits the spot. Though I try to not eat fast food, because I enjoy eating healthy.

I don't think $22 for 4 meals is all that bad, but it is not as cheap as it's been in the past.

I often get a Hardee's biscut and drink in the mornings on my way to work. That's usually under $4 and I don't have to try to cook at home, which would involve me getting up earlier, doing things with sharp and/or hot things while half asleep, eating it without accidentally dropping it to a dog... or I could just stop at a drive-thru window and get something that tastes great.

I try to not eat out any more than I have to, but I've noticed lately that a 'meal' at Wendy's is usually ending up at a $10 mark. That makes me think about how much food I can get at the grocery for $10 vs a single meal.

So mostly I get a breakfast items some workdays, but more rarely for lunch or dinner.

I can get a box of fried chicken at Publix grocery for $7. For extra, you can add in sides and bread and such. Publix fried chicken PWNS KFC or Popeyes.

It was an 8 piece. Who only eats two pieces of chicken? :P That's like eating two potato chips and calling it done...

Agree! I stopped myself at 4, but none of the potatoes made it :)

haha...I'm usually stopping there on my way home from work for breakfast...prices have gone up quite a bit here. It's been a while since I stopped there, but I know it didn't used to be close to 6 bucks for a chicken biscuit and hash browns (no drink)...that's nuts...

Rotisserie chicken at the market, 6 bucks for the entire bird. Five bucks, if it's near the end of the shelf life and they want to get rid of it. It's freaking delicious. 3 meals (it's just me, not married and no kids here), plus you get the carcass for making stock or soup or whatever.

I don't eat fast food, I used to, but it doesn't agree with me anymore. I miss those quarter pounder with cheese sometimes. And the fries. But yeah, $25 bucks for KFC? That's hella expensive. You know KFC is getting chicken from factory farms. Cheap chicken, cheap ingredients for the breading, and they're charging out the nose for it. If I can pay 6 bucks for an entire cooked chicken at the market, what's up with KFC's prices?

well My local Crown Chicken had for Long time promo 4 thigs 4 drumstick and 2 wings for 8$ and i was mad when they raised price to 10$

22$ is like ........... I cant even find words to describe this CRIME !!!!

Here in Canada chicken is really over price, like 5 pack if chicken breast for like 20$

My grandma bought a $20 bucket from
KFC. I'm thinking it was an 8 piece. And all that came with it was fries!

No gravy..

Or sides :(

Hmm. I dont know the price in USA. But a big menu from Macdonald is like 17 dollars in Denmark :(
