Rating: 1/5 Green Leaves

The KFC Menu Chicken Breast (Grilled) receives a 1/5 green leaf rating, indicating minimal adherence to the standards of clean eating as defined by our website. This product is not organic and does not use non-GMO ingredients, which significantly reduces its score. The presence of additives such as natural flavors, flavor, and silicon dioxide further decreases its rating. Moreover, the inclusion of maltodextrin and monosodium glutamate, which are considered harmful additives, and the use of canola oil, categorized as a harmful oil, contribute to its low score.

This grilled chicken breast from KFC is marinated with a mix of salt, sodium phosphate, and monosodium glutamate. The seasoning blend includes maltodextrin, more salt and monosodium glutamate, bleached wheat flour, natural and artificial flavors, and a variety of oils and extracts. Coconut and canola oils are used, alongside garlic powder and soy sauce that contains soybean and wheat. The chicken fat and broth are flavored further with autolyzed yeast extract. Turmeric and dehydrated carrot provide some color, while onion powder adds to the seasoning profile. Anti-caking agents such as calcium silicate and silicon dioxide are used to maintain the texture of the dry ingredients.

The product’s composition reflects a lack of commitment to cleaner food options, as it contains multiple elements that do not align with a health-conscious perspective. The use of non-organic and GMO ingredients, along with additives and oils that may pose health risks, results in a product that is best avoided for those seeking cleaner food alternatives. The overall score reflects these concerns and suggests that there are better choices available for consumers looking to maintain a diet centered on wholesome and minimally processed foods.
