So, definitive proof that the satellite follows me and steals my ideas. I have been saying for years that my dream is to order a 12 piece extra crispy, dump 2 large mashed potatoes over it, and fill the bucket with gravy...


Watching TV this morning they have a slightly modified bowl of mashed potatoes, corn, crispy chicken strips, covered in gravy and cheese. They may have modified it just enough to prevent me suing them for intellectual property, but seriously. WTF?!

If they actually called it the Monger Bucket, I´m certain you´d have a case.

This has been happening to me for years...

I invented the concept of rewindable digital television as a wee lad, and i had a treasure chest i used to keep my toy guns in that i painted the word "XBOX" on.

Damn NSA and their stupid satellites.

Chicken, gravy, potatoes, cheese. What more does one want, or need for that matter?

The only way to top this would be if Popeyes hit it up with their superior mashed potatoes and gravy (with those awesome little bits of ham in the gravy), their spicy cajun strips, and then throw some of their dirty rice and maybe mash a biscuit in it, and then some cajun shrimp for good measure. And more gravy.

Haha, my roommate and I saw this on TV last night while watching 24. We both thought the same thing at first ("That sounds awful."), but after they did that whole sequence in the ad where they pour all the ingredients in together, we were ready to go out and get one.

That big bucket of mashed potatoes is tempting as fuck, too. KFC has the right idea. Unfortunately, the one near us is horrible, even more than your typical KFC.

Yeah the gf and I saw that commercial last night. We both looked at each other with the most disgusted looks on our faces and almost said at the same time "Holy shit, I bet that's fucking GOOD".

I love the total 180 these fast food places have gone since right after Fast Food Nation and Super Size Me came out. Now that I actually have the will power to not eat this crap, it just makes me laugh at the balls these places have by coming out with it.

BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS EAT IT!!!!

Is this just reaching your area? They've been selling this here in Phoenix for at least 6 months, if not a year. I'm just curious if we were a test market for this vile concoction.

The commercial, by the way, makes me want to pummel the guy's friend into oblivion. Assuming, of course, you're getting the same commercial - two guys are heading off to KFC, one asks his wife/girlfriend, who is on the phone, what she wants, and she makes some ridiculous sign-language version of "vomit in a bucket." His friend looks all confused in that over-the-top bad sitcom way. It's this look that makes me want to take this guy's head and bash it into a brick. Not hit his head with a brick, but actually hit his head onto a brick because that's a much more violent way to deal with beating somebody down.

And for a while it was played during every commercial break on every station - sometimes twice. In a row.

Jesus yeech. I'm surprised KFC doesn't get someone to chew the food for you before they mix all that slop into the bucket.


And crispy chicken covered in gravy ain't crispy no mo'.

When you say bowl, you don't mean an enormous briscuit bread bowl do you?

Unfortunately, No...and Radcliffe -- you gotta get the extra crispy so the breading doesn't just disolve.

I cannot fucking wait to try one of these.

I took this picture in London just cause I was so hungry and it looked good. That's a lot of food ya'll.

Too bad it'd be about $20.00 with the HORRIBLE exhcange rate over there.

It gets bigger when you click on it I think.

Even more unfortunate is that Rads and I can't try it at all. Chances are nearly 100% that we won't see this special at all at all up here. When I watch the US channels and see these ads it kills me that I can't even try them.

It wouldn't be the same. US KFC and CDN KFC are NOT the same (actually US fast food vs CDN fast food are often quite different). You would be appalled at what passes for gravy in this country.
