As noted in the most recent post on KFC: “remains banned but keeps getting second chances” (see 14.343 Chicken Skins).

Fortunately, the chicken was better this time, as the glistening skin in the photo would suggest – thus perpetuating further second chances.

Confirming my first impression of Melinda’s (see generally 15.234 Melting Cheese Burger Pizza), I’m still meh on the whole thing.  Frankly, they all taste kinda artificial, like something from a complimentary sauce packet included in a cheap delivery pizza.  And despite the 5 of 5 spice rating for this Bhut Jolokia Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce, it wasn’t that spicy.  I’ll just use them as ingredients mixed into other applications.
