As far as I can tell, it comes with a Zinger sandwich, a Big Crunch, small Popcorn Chicken, four individual-size sides, two cups of gravy, one medium side, six pieces of chicken plus six pieces of chicken (listed separately so you can order them differently, I guess) and one dipping sauce. So basically, more food than any human family could ever consume.
However, the dessert is not "free" but rather "no extra charge" because it's conditional upon buying the dinner box. Another way to say it is "included". However, "included" doesn't have the same marketing cachet.
Additionally, companies can get away with using the word "free" in their context because they obviously state the conditions "when you buy xxx product". So, they're mixing up known accepted usage of the word to their advantage. Of course, you just can't walk into KFC and say "gimme them desserts for free" and not have to buy something.
Last time I checked these combos were like $50, better off going to a rotisserie and getting 2 family meals of quality chicken...
Perhaps it depends on the location but the rare times that some clodchopper bought a bucket I find the chicken dry, stringy and.... still has feathers...
Seriously the only part I like is the crusty skin.. eeew that cannot be healthy... fried rat head would probably be better... Anyhoo dumping a few packets of hot sauce makes it edible...
If you dont like it just move along.
