A Brit and an American swap countries to try each other's KFC.

一個英國人和一個美國人交換國家，品嚐對方的肯德基。

We're gonna start with some things you can get in both the US and the UK to see if there are some subtle differences in taste or anything else.

我們將從一些在美國和英國都能買到的東西開始，看看它們在口味或其他方面是否有細微的差別。

The first thing for me to try, the main event, the fried chicken.

我首先要嘗試的是重頭戲炸雞。

So there's just original recipe chicken I've got what looks to be a thigh piece.

是以，這裡只有原始配方的雞肉，我有一塊看起來像是雞腿的雞肉。

Visually, I think it probably looks slightly more appealing than British fried chicken from KFC tends to look.

從外觀上看，我覺得它可能比肯德基的英國炸雞更吸引人。

The breading is like all over the place There's no bare patches here.

麵包屑到處都是，沒有光禿禿的地方。

I always struggle to like identify where the bones are in pieces of KFC I don't want to just bite straight into a bone Mm-hmm Okay.

我吃肯德基的時候總是很難辨別骨頭在哪裡，我可不想直接咬到骨頭。

是啊，與英國相比，這很不錯。

I think I definitely am getting more flavor I think a fair amount of that is coming from the breading.

我想我肯定是吃到了更多的味道，我認為其中有相當一部分來自於麵包屑。

It's actual seasoning and flavor It's like a thick juicy piece of chicken I don't want to go back to eating regular British KFC after this.

它是真正的調味料和風味，就像一塊厚實多汁的雞肉，吃完後我再也不想吃普通的英國肯德基了。

Right, the six-piece bucket This looks like it has more skin than what we got in the restaurant I will say.

對了，這個六件桶看起來比我們在餐廳裡吃到的更皮實。

So already this looks like it has a better batter to it That is so bland.

所以，這看起來已經有了更好的麵糊。

I can taste the flavors and that's like strong and I'm assuming that's the chemicals We put in our food to make it taste like wow The next thing we wanted to compare was popcorn chicken, which I think in the UK is a pretty iconic menu item Although weirdly enough they've actually cut it from the menu in the US right now The exception being that they will still add it to famous bowls, but we'll get to that later So I guess for the time being I will try a US chicken nugget and see how that compares I mean like this just kind of looks like popcorn chicken Definitely a bit more dry on the palate Again, I don't see why they've got rid of popcorn chicken in lieu of these because popcorn chicken is effectively the same thing It's like a shot Well, I don't taste anything.

我們想比較的下一樣東西是爆米花雞肉，我認為在英國，爆米花雞肉是菜單上的標誌性菜品，但奇怪的是，現在美國的菜單上已經少了這道菜、所以我想暫時先試試美國的炸雞塊，看看味道如何。 我是說，這看起來就像爆米花雞肉，口感肯定更幹一點。 我也不明白為什麼他們取消了爆米花雞肉，而用這個代替，因為爆米花雞肉實際上是一樣的，就像打了一針一樣。

So far I would say that KFC chicken both out of the bone and popcorn in the US The flavor is more pronounced.

到目前為止，我認為肯德基的雞肉無論是從骨頭還是爆米花的味道都比美國的更明顯。

It has more of like a savory flavor to it.

This flavor has training wheels It'll get there someday Firstly there are some twists on the classic fried chicken, which we can't usually find the first variety we have here is the spicy fried chicken I mean like visually this looks fairly similar to just the sort of standard original recipe Although I will say the the breading looks pretty good You get a lot of these little like flakes of breading which really tend to get crisp and stay crisp I don't know if there's enough to call it spicy because I'm not like a guy who has a super high spice tolerance and for Me that's like warm, but not much more than that It's very pleasant and I do think it's crispier than the original recipe very juicy flavorful.

首先，在經典炸雞的基礎上進行了一些創新、第一個品種是辣味炸雞 我是說，從視覺上看，這和標準的原味炸雞很相似 不過我要說的是，炸雞的裹粉看起來很不錯 你會吃到很多像薄片一樣的炸雞裹粉 它們會變得很脆，而且保持脆度我覺得比原配方更酥脆，多汁多味。

I think this is really good I think I would be tempted to buy this over just classic original recipe and it's not just spicy chicken That's available in the US.

我覺得這真的很不錯，我想我很想買這個，而不是隻買經典的原版食譜，而且這不僅僅是美國的辣雞肉。

You can also get another type called extra crispy as the name suggests It's the regular fried chicken, but made extra crispy I think extra crispy should be the KFC chicken then the original should be like diet For some reason the branch that we went to today didn't have it in the form of regular original recipe chicken But they did have it in the form of a chicken little I'm just gonna like break off the end bit that was untouched By the mayo to see if it is actually crispy or not.

顧名思義，它就是普通的炸雞，但做得特別脆。我覺得特別脆的應該是肯德基的炸雞，而原味的應該是節食的。

I Don't think this is extra crispy, even though they told us it was maybe there are that crispinator was broken today or something KFC us is very good at cooking chicken on the bone Less good when it comes to cooking chicken off the bone because this is a little bit dry a little bit chewy Moving on the snack wrap.

我不認為這道菜特別脆，儘管他們告訴我們這道菜特別脆，也許是今天脆皮機壞了還是什麼原因，肯德基非常擅長烹飪帶骨雞肉。

Oh Wow Okay, okay, yeah, that's that I like this this is really good Kansas barbecue, okay The barbecue sauce is pretty good.

哦，哇，好吧，好吧，是的，我喜歡這個 這是非常好的堪薩斯烤肉，好嗎 烤肉醬相當不錯。

I mean, this is definitely a sweeter sauce, which I think is indicative of Kansas City barbecue Anyway, yeah, not bad sweet chili bites Too sweet not that spicy now, we're on to an item which I've been watching from across the pond with a mixture of horror and fascination It's the KFC famous bowl instead of me trying to explain it.

我的意思是，這絕對是一種較甜的醬汁，我認為這也是堪薩斯城烤肉的特點。總之，是的，甜辣醬咬起來還不錯，太甜了，不是很辣。現在，我們開始品嚐一種我在池塘對岸以一種既驚恐又著迷的心情觀看的食物。

I feel like we should just get Joe in here Joe do you want to come and explain the famous bowl to me a little bit of everything is on the menu just in bowl form for anyone who just Doesn't care Thanks Joe looking more like an infamous bowl right now, I'm gonna It's not horrible, there's just a lot going on There's a lot of flavors fighting with each other right now vying for supremacy The main thing I get I think is the corn actually I would have assumed that the mash and the chicken would have been kind of the stars of the show But if anything, it's everything else in there that you can actually taste more To me it feels a little bit like you're eating baby food for adults I was gonna say I'm more excited to try the next bowl But I don't know if excited is the word maybe less anxious to try the next bowl This is the KFC mac and cheese bowl, but the kind of color on that is some cause for concern So I think this actually Works in harmony with the chicken much better than the famous bowl does if I had to get a bowl I think I would be leaning more towards the mac and cheese bowl than the famous bowl.

我覺得我們應該把喬叫來 喬，你要不要來給我解釋一下這碗名菜 菜單上什麼都有，只是以碗的形式出現 給那些不在乎的人吃 謝謝，喬 現在看起來更像是一碗臭名昭著的名菜我覺得最主要的是玉米 我本來以為玉米泥和雞肉 會是這道菜的主角這就是肯德基的芝士通心粉碗，但它的顏色有點令人擔憂 所以我覺得它和雞肉的搭配要比 "名牌碗 "好得多。

Next up is the KFC pot pie It's funny to see this on the menu at a KFC in the US because I feel like meat pies Are generally associated with Britain more.

在美國的肯德基菜單上看到這個很有趣，因為我覺得肉餡餅一般更多地與英國聯繫在一起。

We love a meat pie in the UK steak pie chicken pie Gregg's pucker pies all that good stuff.

在英國，我們喜歡吃肉餡餅，牛排餡餅、雞肉餡餅、格雷格餡餅等等，都是不錯的選擇。

So we'd like a meat pie in the UK What you'll often get is the pastry on the bottom as well So it's like a self-contained pie Whereas I think with a pot pie You just have a layer of pastry on top and then filling underneath and there's no bottom layer of crust But let's find out They haven't skimmed on the carrot I taste a lot of the carrot flavor in the UK for example with a meat pie You tend to get like a gravy that will kind of run out when you cut into it But this is like staying on the spoon.

在英國，我們喜歡吃肉餡餅，肉餡餅的底部通常也有一層面皮，所以就像一個自帶餡料的餡餅。而我認為鍋巴餡餅的表面只有一層面皮，下面是餡料，沒有底層面皮，但我們會發現，他們並沒有撇去胡蘿蔔，我在英國嚐到了很多胡蘿蔔的味道，比如肉餡餅，你會嚐到肉汁的味道，切的時候肉汁會流出來，但這就像留在勺子上一樣。

It's like the sauce needs a little bit more seasoning I think it's a little bit bland bit more salt and pepper would not go amiss there I think with a few minor adjustments they could make this really good and I do think Brits would go for this This is super weird look at that there's a hash brown that was that wasn't it with a tower that much Hmm I like everything that this is made of together I don't think it works the most I get this I'd ask them to separate it Across three containers and Izzy why does eat the hash brown and the chicken finish it off with a slice of cheese?

醬汁需要再多一點調味料，我覺得有點淡了 再加點鹽和胡椒粉就更好了 我覺得稍加調整就能做得很好 我覺得英國人會喜歡這個的我喜歡所有的東西都放在一起 我不認為這是最有效的 我得到這個 我會要求他們把它抽成三個容器

This would be closer like what our extra crispy is This is supposed to be a spicy one.

It's gonna zing me with spice I Not bad, it's not that I dislike anything I've had so far is that it's all 60 to 70 percent as far as flavor and intensity that I'm used to in the United States You can also get yourself a zinger stacker and a zinger tower burger.

我並不是不喜歡它，只是就我在美國習慣的口味和強度而言，它只有 60% 到 70%。你還可以買一個 "zinger stacker "漢堡和一個 "zinger tower "漢堡。

Yo, this is a thick one Wow, I'm not gonna bite into this but man That's a lot this would be right at home the u.s.

哇，我可不想咬這個，但老兄，這可真不少，在美國家門口就能買到。

Menu this would be like, yes, of course I think the double zinger and everyone's like, yeah, of course, it's double Okay vegan burger It kind of looks like chicken The mayo pretty much missed it right see how they out came.

菜單上會寫著："是的，當然，我想這是雙層漢堡，每個人都會說："是的，當然，這是雙層素食漢堡，看起來有點像雞肉。

So I got to kind of like activate the mayo Twist your vegan sandwich before you eat it to even ask what the mayo is made of I I Mean we rip it apart.

所以，我得像激活蛋黃醬一樣 把你的素食三明治擰開，然後再吃，甚至問蛋黃醬是什麼做的，我的意思是我們把它撕開。

It's like one of those big erasers He got me a kid like I mean, I wouldn't just want to eat this in general But as far as a fake meats, it's pretty close And I don't know why if you're vegan keep like finally a chicken sandwich at KFC.

這就像一個大橡皮擦 他給我一個孩子一樣 我的意思是，我不會只是想吃這個一般 但至於假肉，這是非常接近 我不知道為什麼，如果你是素食主義者 保持像終於肯德基雞肉三明治。

No, you can eat this There's no chicken meat.

It's like yeah, but you're still killing them by the millions So there is a category in the menu twisters rice boxes and salads.

所以菜單上有一類是 "飯盒 "和 "沙拉"。

They had no rice boxes or salads They did however have the twisters But this is called a twister not a wrap What's twisted about it?

他們沒有飯盒或沙拉，但有扭扭樂，但這叫扭扭樂，不叫裹飯，有什麼好扭的？

It looks like they took a chicken breast and cut it in half and this was like one long tender Miss out.

看起來就像他們把雞胸肉切成兩半，這就像一個長長的鮮嫩的小姐出來了。

I bet they like wanted to like appeal to more like male demographic So don't get a wrap get a twister a big man.

我敢打賭，他們一定是想吸引更多的男性觀眾，所以就沒有 "裹"，而是 "扭 "了一個大個子。

I didn't want to rattle a pretty ass twisted Wraps are for the ladies but dudes have twisters.

我可不想把一個漂亮的屁股扭得嘎吱嘎吱響。 纏腰帶是女士們的專利，但男士們也有纏腰帶。

Yeah, I don't think that they think that's KFC shame on you Let's talk about some exclusive sides that you can't find in the UK Firstly if the mac and cheese bowl is too much mac and cheese for you You can just get a little cup as a side.

是啊，我不認為他們認為那是肯德基 真丟人 讓我們來談談在英國找不到的獨家配菜 首先，如果奶酪通心粉碗裡的奶酪通心粉對你來說太多了 你可以拿一個小杯子作為配菜

You can also get a side of corn You guys just produce so much of it.

你們生產的玉米實在是太多了。

I'm not trying corn I'm like out here in The UK you guys have corn on the cob Obviously ours is corn off the cob But this would be easier for driving or like eating on the go, right?

我沒嘗過玉米，就像在英國，你們吃的是玉米棒子上的玉米，而我們吃的是玉米棒子上的玉米，但這更適合開車或外出時食用，對嗎？

Have you ever seen someone walking on the street just chewing on a cob on a stick then a stick?

你見過一個人走在大街上只是用一根棍子嚼著玉米棒子嗎？

You've never seen that keep your eyes peeled I would like to get that trend going and of course apparently it wouldn't be a u.s.

你從未見過，請拭目以待，我想讓這股風潮繼續下去，當然，這顯然不是美國的專利。

Fast-food menu without biscuits This is an American biscuit.

不含餅乾的快餐菜單 這是一種美式餅乾。

It looks a lot like a British scone at least on the outside However, generally I think it's a bit more like bready and maybe slightly drier than a scone Texture check It's confusing because with a British scone They're generally like sweetened with sugar because they're eaten with things like jam and cream and it's more of an afternoon tea Dessert type thing whereas these ones are supposed to be eaten with a savory meal, but actually it's not kind of sweet I think of the biscuits I've tried from fast-food venues in the US so far This is probably my favorite one It's somewhere between like a British scone and a bread roll Baked beans Yeah Yeah, these are way more tomatoey Tomatoey, excuse me.

不過，一般來說，我覺得它更像麵包，可能比司康餅稍微幹一點 質地檢查 這很讓人困惑，因為英國的司康餅一般都加糖，因為要配果醬和奶油之類的東西吃，更像是下午茶甜點，而這些餅乾應該配鹹味餐吃、但實際上它並不甜 這可能是我最喜歡的一種 餅乾介於英式烤餅和麵包卷之間 烤豆子 是啊 是啊 這些更像番茄味的 番茄味的 不好意思

The tomato sauce that it's in is like similar to like whatever Spaghetti-O's come in I will never be in the mood for that Southern rice What the hell?

裡面的番茄醬和意大利麵的味道差不多，我可沒心情吃那種南方米飯。

I don't know what they think Southern is.

我不知道他們認為南方是什麼。

I'm surprised at how different it is You'd think an international food chain would want it to be same everywhere But playing to the UK tastes I assume KFC in the US has a bunch of sauce options that we can't get in the UK Which means it's time for Sauce time for an exchange The theme seems to be that they have a lot of honey on the menu when it comes to their sauces at KFC in The US.

我對它的不同之處感到驚訝，你會認為一家國際食品連鎖店會希望它在任何地方都是一樣的，但為了迎合英國人的口味，我認為美國的肯德基有很多我們在英國買不到的醬料選擇，這意味著是時候進行醬料交流了，主題似乎是在美國肯德基的醬料菜單上有很多蜂蜜。

The sauces on offer here are hot sauce, honey sauce, a honey barbecue sauce KFC sauce and yet more honey, a honey mustard I usually like a honey mustard, but I do think you have to get the balance of honey and mustard right Yeah, that's not bad, that's a pretty well-balanced honey mustard I think.

這裡提供的醬料有辣醬、蜂蜜醬、蜂蜜烤肉醬肯德基醬，還有更多的蜂蜜、蜂蜜芥末醬，我通常喜歡蜂蜜芥末醬，但我確實認為蜂蜜和芥末醬的平衡要把握好。

I'm intrigued by KFC sauce I quite like it.

我對肯德基醬汁很感興趣，我挺喜歡它的。

I really can't put my finger on exactly what's in it right now.

我現在真的不知道里面到底有什麼。

We've got the honey barbecue Extremely sweet both on the honey side and even on the kind of barbecue side.

我們的蜂蜜燒烤極甜，既有蜂蜜的甜，也有燒烤的甜。

Let's have a look at the honey sauce It's fine.

It does taste pretty much just like honey.

And then finally they have a hot sauce Yeah, that's pretty comparable to like a Frank's Red Hot BBQ Okay, Kentucky smoked barbecue, actually this is on point.

最後，他們還有一種辣醬 是啊，可以和弗蘭克紅辣燒烤媲美 好吧，肯塔基熏製燒烤，其實這才是重點。

I like all three of those things separately Mmm, yeah, that's pretty good.

這三樣東西我都分別喜歡 嗯，是的，很不錯。

Now, let's look at some exclusive drinks served in these delightful Diablo branded cups You guys love a advertisement tie-in, don't you?

現在，讓我們來看看用這些令人愉悅的暗黑破壞神品牌杯子盛裝的獨家飲料 你們喜歡廣告合作，不是嗎？

So I believe this one is Starry, Joe's beloved Sierra mist Unfortunately culled recently and replaced by Starry.

我相信這隻就是 "星空"，喬心愛的 "塞拉薄霧 "最近不幸被淘汰，取而代之的是 "星空"。

Let's give it a try it's more what I'm used to I guess from like a UK version of a lemonade style drink and of course we have a US style lemonade It's pretty good again to me it's slightly weird what Americans consider lemonade considering coming from the UK lemonade is basically Sprite It's like a clear carbonated lemony beverage.

讓我們試試吧，這是我比較習慣的英國版檸檬水，當然我們也有美國版的檸檬水。 對我來說，美國人對檸檬水的看法有點奇怪，因為來自英國的檸檬水基本上就是雪碧，就像一種透明的碳酸檸檬飲料。

It's pretty good It's probably like slightly more refreshing and hydrating than a Sprite is in the UK There are a couple of other exclusive drinks, which we can normally get but unfortunately our local branch did not have Devastatingly because I really wanted to try the Mountain Dew sweet lightning and regular American Mountain Dew We ordered the bottles of drinks.

我們還點了幾瓶其他的獨家飲料，這些飲料我們通常都能買到，但遺憾的是，我們當地的分店卻沒有。

Didn't we think it was just gonna be like a personal one?

我們不是認為這只是一個人的事嗎？

Yeah, seven of threes Pepsi Max cherry crush-ems UK of course is exclusive crush-em drinks in front of me.

是的，七杯三倍百事可樂最大櫻桃crush-em英國當然是獨家crush-em飲料在我面前。

I said, give me one of each and they did.

我說，每人給我一個，他們就給了。

Milky Bar Mmm arrow We're still charging the same but it's just as you get less in there So, okay less calories by default because it's filled with air I might be the last person to point this out But like they took the candy bar and they crushed it and that's why it's crush-ems.

Milky Bar 嗯箭 我們的收費還是一樣的，只是裡面的熱量少了點 所以，好吧，默認熱量少了點，因為裡面充滿了空氣 我可能是最後一個指出這一點的人 但就像他們把糖果棒壓碎了，所以才叫 "壓碎糖果"。

我是說，拜託，那真的很不錯。

I would definitely get this dessert exclusive desserts get a white chocolate chip cookie You could also get a pineapple stick, but they didn't have any at the location.

我一定會點這道甜點的 專屬甜點 點一塊白巧克力餅乾 你還可以點一根菠蘿棒，但他們店裡沒有。

We went to also I don't know what a pineapple stick is Why is that desserts I Think if I could pick one item from this menu to take back with me to the UK and put on our menu over there I think it would probably be the spicy chicken I just like how it was slightly more crispy than the regular chicken and just added a bit more flavor The level of heat was really good Yeah I think that would come back with me if I could remove one thing from the US and all other menus from KFC I think it would be the famous bowl.

我們還去了我不知道是什麼的菠蘿棒，為什麼是甜點？我想，如果我能從菜單上選一樣東西帶回英國，放在我們那裡的菜單上，我想可能會是辣雞肉，我只是喜歡它比普通雞肉更酥脆，只是增加了一點風味，熱度真的很好，是的，我想如果我能從美國和肯德基的所有其他菜單上去掉一樣東西，我想那就是著名的碗。

I'm sorry guys I don't want to start some kind of revolutionary war again But I just feel like it's not very good because those ingredients don't really go together Texturally, it's a bit of a nightmare and honestly, there's just way better things you can do with the stuff on the menu I was really impressed with the the flaming hot wrap I might have dogged in a little bit earlier because it was smaller But that spicy sauce you guys have is actually pretty good honorable mention the vegan burger Obviously, I'm not vegan, but I guess I was surprised by how kind of decent it was It's not my favorite, but I mean points for it being edible Way to go.

對不起，夥計們，我不想再挑起什麼革命戰爭了 但我就是覺得它不好吃，因為這些配料並不搭 從文字上來說，這有點像噩夢，而且說實話菜單上的東西可以做得更好 我對火焰裹飯印象深刻 我可能早了點進來，因為它比較小 但你們的辣醬其實很不錯 值得表揚的是素食漢堡 顯然，我不是素食主義者 但我想我對它的美味程度感到驚訝 雖然不是我的最愛，但能吃還是要給分的 幹得好

I will do everyone a favor and I will say I'm not cutting a menu item Let's get that potato off of your sandwiches.

我會幫大家一個忙，我會說我不會削減菜單項目，讓我們把洋芋從你們的三明治上拿下來。
