00:00Hello everyone, my name is Paul Branson and today I'll be reviewing this limited time

00:08only Ruffles KFC Original Recipe Chicken.

00:13And they came out with one before, I think it was called the Zinger Spicy Chicken.

00:18And KFC, it was Ruffles, a Zinger Crunchy Spicy Chicken.

00:24So KFC, when I saw this yesterday, I was like, I already reviewed it.

00:29And when I looked at it, going, no I didn't, they came out with a second limited edition

00:33one.

00:34So they teamed up with Ruffles, saying we want to bring our Original Recipe Chicken

00:37into a potato chip.

00:40So that's what they did.

00:41So this is a limited time one, so I said I have to try this one.

00:44I tried the other one, but just like the last one, they had a 20% coupon on the back.

00:51So the other one had a 20% coupon as well.

00:55So in a lot of ways, KFC must be hurting.

00:58Because I was born in the 70s, and I remember the chicken was really good in the 70s and

01:0280s.

01:03In the earlier 90s, it started to taste kind of greasy and not as good.

01:08So over time, it didn't taste as good as it originally did.

01:13And I think that they're losing sales.

01:15Because it's like eating a bucket of grease now.

01:18Like even with the 20% coupon, and trying these Original Recipe Chips, even so if I

01:23liked the chips, I dealt very much, I would go to KFC again.

01:28Just because of the basis of my experience in the past.

01:31What they have to really do is get the Original Recipe and make it the way he made it when

01:37he sold it.

01:38Now, I've heard variations.

01:41I know that he didn't have a lot of money.

01:44And he worked really hard.

01:45But he had this recipe for chicken.

01:48I heard one variation where online it says he sold it door to door.

01:52And people were enjoying it.

01:54So he wanted to sell it at a store.

01:56And the store would allow him to sell the chicken for free rent if they sold their products.

02:03I heard it might have been a gas station, or an oil station, or something like that.

02:08I'm not really sure.

02:09So first, he was selling it door to door.

02:12Then he was selling it in a store for rent free.

02:14And then when he was 64 years old, he sold it to a company.

02:21And the company made it into stores or restaurants.

02:24I'm not sure if he did it first, Colonel Sanders.

02:28But when he sold it at the age of 64, he got, I think it was $1 million to $2 million for

02:35it.

02:36And that was a lot of money back then.

02:37But he also stayed at the spokesperson, commercials and all, promoting his chicken.

02:44And there was some sort of lawsuit, too.

02:46So I'm not sure what it was, that the company wasn't quite following the recipe to the T.

02:52I think one time, Colonel Sanders was saying it tasted like cardboard when he sold it to

02:56this company later on.

02:58But he died in 1980.

03:01And his legacy did live on.

03:03But his taste of the original recipe, apparently, it's undebatable.

03:08It was good.

03:10Then it declined.

03:12And now they're trying to promote it by various chip variations with coupons on the back to

03:18get people back at KFC.

03:20That's how I see it.

03:21But again, though, I could be wrong.

03:23But he struggled all his life, working hard.

03:27He really worked hard.

03:28And he didn't become a millionaire until he was 65.

03:33So it just shows you, work hard.

03:37Work hard is very important.

03:39And keep at it.

03:40Keep at your dream.

03:42And just go for it.

03:44Anyway, I'm now going to try this.

03:47I'm still looking at this now.

03:48So bucket of flavor.

03:50We're bringing the flavor of KFC's famous original recipe chicken to the iconic ridges

03:55of Ruffles potato chips.

03:56We're keeping the 11 herbs and spices top secret.

04:00But are sharing KFC's iconic taste in this limited time.

04:04Do not miss out.

04:05And I also was told that people who knew the recipe, not the full recipe, but even a little

04:11bit of it, they had to sign a waiver.

04:13So if they ever say anything, they can get sued and thrown into jail.

04:18That's what I heard.

04:19So these are things I heard.

04:21If you want to know the actual story, look it up.

04:23I'm going to try this now.

04:24It says, calories are 270, fat is 23%, trans fat is 10%, fiber is 7, sugar is 2, zero cholesterol,

04:35sodium, potassium is 13, calcium is 2, and iron is 6.

04:41Special selected potatoes, vegetable oil seasoning, protein, spices, herbs, they're not going to

04:48tell you the exact herbs, garlic powder, yeast, abstract, onion powder, contains milk.

04:54Let's open this up.

05:01Oh.

05:02Wow.

05:03Honestly, it smells like KFC.

05:05It actually, wow.

05:08It really smells like the old days.

05:10It brought back a whole bunch of memories when my dad brought a bucket of KFC home.

05:14Oh my god.

05:16Wow.

05:17I don't get this if I went into KFC today.

05:20If I did, I'd be buying the chicken.

05:22Okay.

05:23I've got to taste these chips now.

05:34Not quite taste like the chicken.

05:36The smell does, but not quite.

05:47I do like it though, but it's not quite the taste as KFC.

05:53I do like them.

05:55I wish they were a bit stronger, like the smell.

05:58I wish every bite would be...

06:07I do like them.

06:09I do like them.

06:10It's just, I wanted a more stronger taste.

06:12Like when I open this up, that smell reminded me of a whole bunch of things from my childhood.

06:17A lot of things from my childhood, actually.

06:20Oh.

06:21I used to love going to KFC.

06:25Oh.

06:26The smell is actually better.

06:28Well, the taste is good.

06:29It's just it's not as strong.

06:30I would have preferred it to be just as strong as me smelling it.

06:38It's a light...

06:42Very light flavor.

06:44I do like it.

06:45I would give it a 6.5.

06:47Maybe a 7.

06:496.5 or 7.

06:50I do like it.

06:51You know what?

06:52I'd give it a 7.

06:53I just wish it was a bit more stronger, like the smell is.

06:56Overall, I do like them.

06:58But it is sad that KFC has declined.

07:01And his legacy kind of declined with it.

07:04Because if they stuck with the original recipe, there'd be a lot more people going.

07:09And they do, but I just feel like I'm eating a bucket of grease.

07:12It's sad, really.

07:13Overall, maybe I will go back to KFC and use that coupon.

07:17I said I wouldn't, but maybe I will.

07:19Maybe they did change things up a bit.

07:22But look up this full story online.

07:24I could have been...

07:25I was trying to just do it from memory.

07:27Bye for now, everyone.

07:28Have an incredible day.

07:29My name is Paul Branson.

07:30Check out my other shows and movie reviews.

07:32And yeah, I give this a 7 out of 10.

07:34Bye for now.

07:35This is good, actually.

07:41Bye for now.
