Often compared or used with kfc original recipe chicken thigh
Nutrient values are from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy (April 2018 release, public domain), record 170346: "KFC, Fried Chicken, ORIGINAL RECIPE, Thigh, meat and skin with breading". Values are stored per 100 g exactly as USDA reports them and scaled to each serving by weight. The Nutrition Facts panel applies the FDA rounding rules in 21 CFR 101.9; tables and text show the scaled amounts at reading precision, so a figure can differ slightly from the panel. A nutrient USDA does not report for this food is shown as not reported, never as a guessed value.

SR Legacy predates the added sugars field, and this processed food may contain some, so added sugars are shown as not reported. The label panel prints 0 g because a row cannot be blank; a real product label needs the figure from its recipe. View the USDA record ↗
