Blows my mind that anyone thinks that fried chicken or mac and cheese belong at a picnic. They'd get cold!

[-] robolemmy@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago

There are a lot of weirdos who think cold fried chicken is great. I had a roommate who ate it right out of the fridge. Never underestimate the infinite diversity of bad taste.

[-] Alto@kbin.social 11 points 4 months ago

Good fried chicken can be great cold, especially if you properly store it in the fridge to minimize how much moisture it absorbs. Mediocre or bad fried chicken is awful cold thought.

[-] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Mediocre fried chicken is bad either way. Good hot fried chicken is better than cold, but I'd still love it at a picnic or as a drunk 3am meal.

[-] Artyom@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago

I'd take most cold fried chicken over microwaved fried chicken if that's all you've got to reheat it.

[-] robolemmy@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

What, am I an animal? Air fryer or oven! Covered pan on the stove in a pinch.

[-] Drusas@kbin.run 2 points 4 months ago

People don't normally have microwaves at picnics....

My wife takes fresh hot pizza and puts it in the fridge to get cold first before eating it.

Time to lawyer up

Your ex-wife does what?

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Fried chicken is delicious at every temperature god damn it. It’s just like pizza!

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Cold fried chicken is fabulous. Maybe you're just eating shitty, dry garbage.

My brother in Christ, what do you think lunch meat / cold cuts are?

[-] distantsounds@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

They aren’t breaded and fried in oil for starters

[-] scrion@lemmy.world -4 points 4 months ago

That actually depends. Also, no one is forcing you to bread your chicken?

[-] PhoreTwunny@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

That's . . . how fried chicken is made

[-] scrion@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Yes, yes, you're right of course - if we're talking fried chicken exclusively.

[-] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 months ago

Fried chicken is a great picnic food, since it is delicious hot or cold.

Mac and cheese, though... God no. Give me a nice macaroni salad instead.

[-] bitwaba@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Potato salad is superior to macaroni salad. I'll die on this hill.
