I recently tried one and after 1 bite I threw it in the bin. Absolutely burnt my entire mouth for 30 minutes. Its satins food and the most disgusting chicken burger ever. Please avoid at all costs ... absolutely vile. 

You mean the 'Zinger Burger' - about the only thing on their menu worth having!

Zinger burger is not very spicy.

You didn't like it then.

 

I'm afraid I have to agree with the others, the zinger is about the only edible item on the KFC Thailand menu, everything else is just waaay too greasy.

Haven’t had ‘em for years - but Wing Zaap are very more-ish.

 

 

I’m waiting for all the puritans to come along and mention how disgusting western fast food is when there is perfectly good street food available which is also fast food Thai style !!!!  and then go on about how western food culture is fattening up all the bar girls !!!! 

 

Absolutely, why eat that disgusting western fast food when there is perfectly good street food available, which is also fast food Thai style of course!!!!  And it also fattens up all the bar girls !!!! ????

I had some spicy KFC chicken pieces once when there was no regular available. I was in agony as well, had to eat a large amount of ice cream to reduce the pain. Wasn’t disgusting though, just way too hot for farang like us to handle.

It was an occasional treat during lock down, I had a Zinger Burger, and my granddaughter the Wing Zabb

Cold things like ice cream would only make it worse , it just made the spicy things seem even more spicy .

  You should have drank some hot tea , that would make the spicy food less spicy 

Boss puts on KFC every Friday for the dept, love them Zinger burgers.

Why would I want to try any foodstuff that is contributing to Thai obesity levels?

No way too hot for you too handle. Please dont stereotype the farung who live here and have picked up the spicy habit.  British?

In my experience it is just training. For a while I ate many things with chili. I could eat chili raw without problems. After reading that chili is often full of pesticides I stopped eating it. And now everything is too spicy again. 

I love spicy food but the spiciest food I ever had was at KFC in Hat Yai, about 10 years ago on my first trip to Thailand. It was so spicy that I left more than half of it. I can only think that they accidentally put way too much seasoning on as it was hotter than khuar kling. Every 'spicy' KFC order that I have had since then has been considered mild.

Can you not grow your own chilies at home? We grow chilli, basil, lime, lemongrass etc in our modest sized garden to ensure they're chemical free.

I tried several times. But our condominium complex has a garden and insects always brought diseases. I gave up. But I understood why the farmers use pesticides for Chili. Basil didn't work too. They all had spider mites after a while. And I even desinfected the potting soil with heat.

I have those as a little treat when I go to Tesco Lotus.....great and in my experience here, they have never been too greasy.

 

Different story in NZ when I first tried KFC, as they were dripping in fat!!

KFC in Hat Yai

Hat Yai folk like spicy to be spicy

The original recipe with 12 herbs and spices has been put on the back burner unfortunately in Thailand. I can't stand the zinger spicy chicken. In fact given the choice I'd be gouging on chicken feet instead..

Some farang grew up eating Mexican, Creole, Buffalo wings, etc. Like me; 'merican. I like KFC spicy wings, only wish they had the flats too instead of just drummies. (Where are all the flats?!!)

 

They're not spicy to me. Now I'll have to try the sandwich!

A cold lager works for me.

Killing and eating animals is cruel, disgusting, demeaning and unhealthy.
