      I’ll be honest, I’ve never heard of a drumlet before I posted this thread.

      But our KFC order was literally a 12 piece legs and thighs. So why we get this jank shit?

        They look exactly like drumsticks, only smaller.

        The chickens aren’t separated in the store; all the butchering and separating happens in the factory. The store gets boxes of legs, boxes of breasts, boxes of thighs, etc.

        It seems plausible someone was very new and mistook the drumlet bin for the drumstick bin. I’d bet your order wasn’t the only mistake before someone noticed and corrected them.

        It may be worth contacting the shop with your photo, because it will be obvious to them that is a drumlet. May be worth a free meal.

            Okay, that’s weird. I get KFC on occasion and haven’t noticed any appreciable change in the drumstick size. The one in your photo is tiny and appears to be the same shape and size as a standard drumlet.

            Is this at a certain location, or more than one?
