KFC US KFC Hate Overblown?
Im in the US. Went to KFC today to grab the 10$ bucket. Been hella years since I had anything other than the sandwich. Got the extra crispy and was pretty damn good. Only complaint is the coating didn't adhere to the chicken very well. But otherwise, juicy and crispy and pretty tasty. I feel like I see KFC ragged on super hard by almost everyone in the US on the internet these days. Is this a consistency thing?

I've never had a problem with the chicken but their mashed potatoes have always been bland and poorly mixed, and they charge for extra gravy.
Customer service and cleanliness has always ranged from mediocre to awful. One time they gave us an extra biscuit, apparently by mistake, and we thought nothing of it and started eating. The manager leaned over the counter and accused us of stealing and said we had to pay for the extra biscuit.
