When KFC started selling grilled chicken, we all thought that the chicken had time-travelled from April to August.
But no, it wasnโt an April Foolโs joke, but KFCโs answer to the Governmentโs mobilization for their war against diabetes: it was a permanent item for gym rats to have after their intensive workout.

Should you have merely the grilled chicken, it could well be healthier than your regular fish soup with rice, for it doesnโt have any empty calories and is packed with muscle-building protein.
The reason why people thought that pigs could finally fly after KFCโs announcement is simple: KFC is known for its fried stuff. I mean, itโs even in its name: Kancheong Fried Chicken. Having a grilled chicken in its permanent menu is like Old Chang Kee selling baked chicken.
How can Old Chang Kee, our favourite to-go for fried stuff, sell bakedโ
โoh, wait. Thatโs from Old Chang Kee.
Wait, what?
Is it April now? Can pigs finally fly?
Old Chang Kee Now Selling Jumbo Chicken Leg
Youโve read it right: our favourite Old Chang Kee, whom we didnโt even know have an oven in their kitchen, is selling a non-fried chicken leg that looks almost like KFCโs grilled chicken.
According to Old Chang Kee, itโs โjuicy, tender, over-baked with spices marinated,โ and that itโs โbursting with juicy flavors in every bite.โ

Being the impartial Goody Feed weโve always been, we canโt vouch for that unless weโve tried it, but given Old Chang Keeโs reputation of having goody food that seldom disappoint, weโre inclined to believe its self-review.
At mere $3.90, itโs way cheaper than KFCโs grilled chicken that is priced at $5.90, though weโre not sure if itโs way bigger than KFCโs chicken.
If youโre sad that our dearest Old Chang Kee has also been enlisted into the Governmentโs call for heathier food, and youโve once made a vow never to eat healthy food, no worries: Old Chang Kee has another new item thatโs pretty lit, too.
Cheesy-licious ChickenโO
Now, forget about the corny name because weโre about to give it a new name: Black Curry Puff.
The Black Curry Puff is filled with tender chicken, potato chunks and a double cheese mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese.

But what makes it stand out from the crowd? Its colour, because you can taste like rotten chicken coated with Dynamo detergent, but as long as you look good, kids with camera would still buy it.
Here, take a look:
According to Young Chang Kee, itโs โcoated with charcoal powder for the extra oozing for cheese lovers.โ
But seriously, itโs a chaota-looking curry puff. Who cares about ooze, cheese or chicken? Buy it for the gram, man!
These new items are already available in all Old Chang Kee outlets for a limited period.

Well, they didnโt indicate an end date, so for all you know, if they sell well, they might just become a permanent item. #justsaying
