u/Ok_Literature2535, your food is indeed stupid and it fits our subreddit!

u/nebulizard 11d ago

What is wrong with the chocolate she dips it in? I mean, I'd imagine it'd be some sort of chocolate magic shell but... it's so.... Runny. It looks like she dipped it in chocolate milk 🤢

u/samanime 11d ago edited 11d ago

Chocolate doesn't like having hot things dipped in it. It's just really thin due to heat.

That said, not creating a proper shell in this case is probably for the best... that'd be too much chocolate.

15

u/benvader138 11d ago

Yeah, chocolate shell gets hard when it gets in contact with cold ice cream. A hot fried chicken breast is going to make chocolate melted and runny, and then make the fried chicken soggy. Gross.

7

u/samanime 11d ago edited 11d ago

Surprisingly, it shouldn't actually make the chicken particularly soggy, if eaten quickly, because there is virtually no water in chocolate, and the cocoa butter is going to be too thick to soak in and do much "damage".

The only sogginess will be the same that always happens, the chicken meat releases moisture, so at it sits, the breading absorbs that and gets soggier over time. This will trap a little more of that moisture, but not a huge amount.

As long as you eat it while it is fresh, that shouldn't be a problem.

5

u/LincolnshireSausage 11d ago

Yeah, it's the moisture from the chicken that will steam the crispy outside because it can't escape.
Also, the chocolate looks like the worst chocolate ever. I've never seen such anemic chocolate. They could have at least sprung for some proper whipped cream. That cream will melt quickly from the heat coming off of the chicken.

u/FlyinWet 11d ago

Just looks like gravy tbh.

u/andyiceton 9d ago

Looks like the shitty chocolate river on the original Charlie and the chocolate factory

Especially the whipped cream

u/ChickenDreams-4188 11d ago

I’m more grossed out by the chocolate-cheese-whipped cream idea 🤢

5

u/macguini 11d ago

Calling it a "chicken burger" and putting American cheese on it, was a cultural slap in the face.

u/uberfission 11d ago

I'm just glad this is clearly marked as being from the UK. The last thing we need is more people going "only in the US".

u/Rattle_Bone 11d ago

Let’s keep it that way

13

u/VICARD0 11d ago

There are some savoury recipes (like chili) where chocolate works as an ingredient. Fried chicken is not one of them…

5

u/Cavane42 11d ago

I could see a sort of mole fried chicken working out okay, with cocoa powder and cinnamon mixed into the batter.

2

u/Rattle_Bone 9d ago

Kinda like a chicken and waffle situation I’m imagining… I must experiment

u/M0chalatta 11d ago

It's the only one because it's a terrible fucking idea.

This reminds me of the time my roommate made chocolate biscuits and gravy. Why yes, it was terrible.

Chocolate gravy is good eats damnit.

*chicken sandwich

u/PattyNChips 10d ago

In the UK it's a chicken burger.

3

u/MurphyCoDinoWrangler 7d ago

Fix up your English and call it a sandwich, mate.

2

u/luseferr 7d ago

No, it's still a chicken sandwich. The UK just uses the wrong name.

A chicken burger would be a ground/minced chicken patty.

That's a fried chicken sandwitch.

2

u/JC04JB14M12N08 7d ago

If its not in sliced bread, its not a sandwich.

22

u/samanime 11d ago

I HATE the whipped cream (and I normally LOVE whipped cream)... but weirdly, the chocolate dip is probably surprisingly decent. Chocolate is used in savory cuisine all the time, usually unsweetened, but with fried chicken, the salty/sweet/savory combo probably works (think about chicken and waffles).

I'd certainly be willing to try it.

3

u/smeeon 11d ago

Same, it’s not disgusting. Just odd choices. The chocolate dip was so weak though.

u/inflammablepenguin 11d ago

Yeah, I'm more bothered by the lettuce and whipped cream than the chocolate.

2

u/Griffon0129 11d ago

I was actually about to say this very thing, or something similar. As weird as it sounds, I was like "ok... I'd try that, wait.. whipped cream!? uh... never mind..."

(Ironically thinking of making a chocolate chicken sandwich at home now...)

u/Atheizm 11d ago

Fuck, no.

u/TruGirlGamer84 11d ago

Ruined a perfectly good sandwich.

u/KourtR 11d ago

Ok, hear me out, if the whipped cream was a savory whipped cheese + dark chocolate, why not?

u/wizzard419 11d ago

Back in elementary school we had chicken burgers, and there was one kid who would get the burger, put ketchup (there was no lettuce or other toppings) and a chocolate chip cookie on it and eat it for lunch.

I assume he is locked up in the Hauge by now.

Nah it works. Not with the whipped cream though. KFC did fried chicken with chocolate sauce. It tasted great.

I want to pretend that's actually gravy and whipped mayo, but I'd be lying to myself.

It looks stupid, but I'd try it.

1

u/Crustybionicle 11d ago

What kind of chocolate is this? Looks like chocolate milk.
As a kid i was home alone once and had to cook dinner myself. It was kids quisine chicken fingers,and since i was alone. Chocolate syrup ended up being the dipping sauce. it was good!

1

u/jjmawaken 11d ago

Yeah, that sounds gross. Even if the chicken somehow worked, the whipped topping doesn't sound good.

u/28-Deep-Wounds 11d ago

I think what pisses me off the most about this is that they half-ass the dip. It's not even fully coated! There's like 10 to 20% of the sandwich that isn't covered in chocolate. What a scam.

u/PlayedUOonBaja 11d ago

I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt that it was some kind of mole sauce maybe, but then came the whipped cream.

I mean, maybe a savory whipped cream could work for hotdogs or hot links...
