Review: KFC - Boneless Chicken

White meat - left, dark meat- right

KFC's Boneless Chicken is a skinless, boneless take on their bone-in Original Recipe fried chicken. According to their research, a majority of people like boneless chicken and this is their effort to appeal to those folks, notwithstanding the fact that they offer chicken strips and have offered a Boneless Filet in the past.

Boneless Chicken carries a 25-cent-per-piece upcharge over KFC's regular bone-in chicken and can be had in white or dark meat. KFC is also currently promoting a two-piece Boneless Chicken combo (with a side, biscuit, and drink) for $4.99.

Around the World: KFC China - Double-Pepper, Double-Chicken Sandwich

It seems they really like to double it up over in China, at least if the KFC Double-Pepper, Double-Chicken Sandwich is any indication.

Review: Nabisco - Mallomars

Nabisco's Mallomars are round graham crackers topped with a marshmallow and covered in dark chocolate. They've been around since 1913 and are not distributed by Nabisco during the summer months (that doesn't mean you can't find them; it just means they don't ship them out).

I usually don't see them on sale and they tend to cost about $5 for an 8-ounce box, but I found this particular box at Big Lots for $2.50 (score!).
