I haven’t had fried chicken in a while now mind you, but both when I was a kid and my family would have leftover KFC, and as an adult in the rare occasion I do get fried chicken, I have always loved it more after it’s been sitting overnight in the fridge.
Won’t heat that shit in the microwave or nuthin, just eat it straight cold and love it like that.

I agree with you. My partner that his we are both nuts.
You monster. Have my angry upvote
Dude. Core memory unlocked. I’ve been vegetarian for 20 years and vegan for 5ish…but cold fried chicken was the shit of my childhood. Maybe that explains a lot lol. But I’m with you brother/sister/other
The problem isn’t flavor, imo. Cold chicken is really good, in different ways from warm and hot. Dunno if I’d say better, but good in its own way.
It’s texture. Doesn’t matter what the temp is if the breading isn’t good, and cold breading might taste fine, but the texture is crap. Might as well not have fried chicken at that point, just pick up a rotisserie chicken instead, and go to town with it cold.
But, yeah, definitely an unpopular opinion!
I think how good cold fried chicken tastes depends very much on the type of oil it was fried in, and whether it’s been overcooked and/or has sat under a heat lamp for too long. Under the right circumstances cold fried chicken can be fantastic. But it’s pretty easy to make it bad.
My 4 yo kid agrees with you
Then you just haven’t had good fried chicken. The shit from KFC or grocery stores wouldn’t matter cause it was never good to begin with.
Your last sentence makes it a bit tough. I want to upvote as I think the fresh hot chicken is better but cold is not bad to the point I would rather do cold than microwave it.
Have to disagree. Good cold, but better warmed up, just like your mother.
Cold fried chicken is pretty good and so is cold pizza.
Ew, upvote
Do I upvote you because it’s an unpopular opinion, or downvote you because it’s wrong? 😂
How voting works: Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it’s something that’s widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Always upvote lol, though I understand the urge :)
looks at you like a weirdo
For me fresh fried chicken is better than cold, but cold fried chicken is better than microwaved
Better not eat too much chicken or you’ll run out of friends.
Ninja edited lol
Still says “friend rice” over here lol. Does your instance reflect edits?
I believe there’s some federation problem lately? Oh well. I should be mindful of not eating all my friend chicken.
If you’re sticking with “better” then I think you’ve got an unpopular opinion there.
Still, it’s good though.
Standing by it. Prefer it over fresh n hot.
