Long john Silver’s
I had a choice to make, knowing that I was going to have to eat out for lunch. There was a Subway available, but also a KFC.
I prefer the taste at KFC, but knew I would have a greater caloric
intake. When I got to KFC I discovered it was combined with Long John
Silver’s, and not knowing there food but being game for seafood I gave
it a try. I ordered a platter, which must have been intended for a
couple people because I had lots of shrimp, one piece of chicken, to cod
filets and a couple hush puppies. Everything was cooked in a similar
fashion, breaded and deep fried. The filets were dripping in grease. I
thought, ”This is going to kill any chance of having a sensible diet
today,” and I was right.
I
checked to caloric values later, and they really weren’t terrible.
However when I added the condiments, I was looking at a meal with over
1500 calories. That is way over half of my daily goal. As for the
taste, I didn’t much care for the hush puppies, nor did I care for the
dripping grease. I guess they were going for the English fish and chips
idea. There fries were really pretty good. The shrimp would have been
very good, but they were too hot to enjoy. After I ate the first
shrimp, I had to let my food sit for a while, while it cooled off. My
final analysis, I don’t think I will eat this type of food again. I
would have been happier with KFC. I did enjoy the chicken strip by
dipping it in the KFC honey mustard. That stuff tastes great, but it
too has its caloric value.
