What is it, exactly, about popcorn chicken that makes it so irresistible? Could it be the ease of consumption, the delectable deep fried-ness of it, or the fact that 'popcorn' is baked right into the name making it seem almost guilt-free? Add to that its inherent shareability, and it's no wonder it's such a beloved treat.
Not surprisingly, KFC is on to its popularity and is responding with a massive 80-piece popcorn chicken bucket in time for holiday binge eating.
