We Freeze Dried The KFC Menu (Taste Test)
Freeze-Drying the KFC Menu: Taste Testing Dehydrated Fast Food
Discover which elements of the KFC menu survive the deep freeze transformation and which completely fail the taste test. Learn exactly how the freeze-drying process radically alters familiar foods like biscuits and coleslaw.
Short Summary
- Freeze-dried sides (biscuit, slaw, mac & cheese) showed surprising success, with slaw being called "edible chewing tobacco."
- Chicken pieces typically fared poorly, often tasting dry, stale, or like dog food.
- The reconstitution process for components like mashed potatoes resulted in an "absolutely horrible" texture.
- The essential “wetness” of the chicken pot pie filling was lost, ruining the overall experience.
Rhett and Link sample freeze-dried versions of the classic KFC menu—including chicken, the Famous Bowl, and separate sides—meticulously prepared by Nicole. The session tests the limits of food preservation, revealing that texture change often ruins the flavor profile, despite some startling successes in the side category that preserved concentrated flavor.

A GMM fan that doesn't complain about everything gang
Y'all should do an episode where you freeze dried foods, then rehydrate it with common beverages other than water!
2:06 ‘Kentucky Dried Chicken’ was right there for the taking Rhett
I'm impressed that Link made it an entire episode without mentioning Nichole's pregnancy 😂
I got whiplash from how quickly they jumped into this episode after the intro 💀
Stevie whispering “I love chicken pot pie” was the ASMR that I didn’t know I needed this morning
Look for more freeze dried episodes. They ain't buying a $2K Harvest Right for one episode.😄
"why did you look at me when you said dry and crunchy" 😂
One of the writers definitely saw Hank Green trying freeze dried Taco Bell.
We must freeze dry Link.
