- Singaporeans love their fried chicken. From fast food to gourmet, our insatiable appetite for this indulgent food is seeing a comeback, bringing new sauces and food pairings to add to its sinful glory. Despite a growing health craze, we still find ourselves indulging in this guilty pleasure.
In the first of this two-part Special, self-professed fried chicken lover and host Steven Chia finds out what’s behind our craving for fried chicken, why do we keep coming back for more, despite knowing that it is bad for us? And what is this obsession REALLY doing to our health?

Can fried chicken be healthier? Find out in the second instalment as Steven gives it a try: th-cam.com/video/F8R1bvnxhm0/w-d-xo.html
I would like to volunteer for the next unhealthy diet experiment. Give poor Steven a break. Let me take one for science and general knowledge.
okay! Don't be surprised if we come calling!
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore 🤣🤣🤣
I volunteer too!
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore your passion and dedication to your field of work is admirable but in order to continue making good contents like this, please keep yourself healthy. At the same time, I would also like to volunteer for the next unhealthy diet experiments hahahahaha XD
@@XavierSmithSchwazenegger my body can take it
Oh Steven here we go again 😂
Yeaaah😂
Poor Steven!
this experiment was a bit easier to digest! ha ha!
He’s doing it for the good of educating the humble viewers at home 😝
Why make something good better?I want chicken,not fried chicken sundae or shortcake and fried chicken.That's a bit munch.If it's got to be naughty,make it "good" and naughty. Not ridiculous.Carmel and fried chicken,nope.Not this girl.🤔
30 days of bubble tea and now fried chicken. I am worried for this guy's health
if we all start being more aware and careful of what we eat, this show will have served it's purpose. Thanks for the concern.
indeed.
Steven is a gift to humanity that keeps giving.. 😅
too kind...it's a give and take kind of world we live in. Will keep giving if I can!☺️
CNA, pls up his health insurance coverage.
No worries, it's all taken care of. It's just that they don't count "extreme sports" like eating fried chicken. ha ha!
Man I’ve always watched Steven growing up and it’s so nice to still see him in the field and so passionate about his job!!!
thanks for "growing old" with me 😆
I hope your company medical insurance has a higher coverage than the CEO.
same for all of us in the company. I've just got to exercise more to burn all this chicken off! 🤣
Get insurance from me MSIG (M) BHD, hehehe
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore Hats off to you for being the crash test dummy for us mortals
I just watched this with my 5 and 7 year old today. Thanks for making a video that is accessible even to children that young! Simple and accessible topic, presented in an engaging way. First time they’ve watched anything educational that wasn’t Dr Binocs on TH-cam and sat through the whole thing. I wish I could give more thumbs up. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! So glad to hear that! Look up talking point, we also covered fish balls, chicken nuggets, tap water....😃
YAY STEVEN IS BACK!!!! MY FAVOURITE CNA HOST
thank you!
@StevenChia Thank you for taking on such an experiment to let viewers know more about the food science. Stay safe, stay healthy please. Fighting
I love that literally everyone is worried about your health, Steven.
Please stay healthy! We all love your series
Also, what happend to your old merc? Love that car
she's on a break, getting some TLC. Will be back in action soon!
The 3rd😉. Steven will need to go for another round of diet after this.
ha ha! yes!!
This man needs a raise...
thanks, I would love that!
steven chia is the dad i never had thank u for educating me on fried chickie
Poor Steven. The company should provide him with free, lifelong medical insurance coverage for all the food experiments they put him through. :(
ha ha, thanks!
I audibly yelled out NO, when it was obvious what he was getting to when he mentioned boba and IF. Please take care of your health Steven.
Me tooooo gosh this is such a scary experiment
Though I love fried chickens, but to eat it for 14 days! I simply have to salute Steven for his professionalism.
Thank goodness its only for 2 weeks not 30 days.
Salute to you Steven😊
"Experiment with one of my favorite foods"
Bruh... sign me up!!!
Love this experiment! My mother is a fried chicken addict which I find very unhealthy. I have a suggestion for another similar experiment which is to do a test on frequent consumption of raw fish/sashimi. I'm curious if it causes any health problems?
don't be hard on your mom, she is just like the rest of us who love fried chicken! Thanks for the sashimi idea...it sounds a bit fish but let me look into it! ha ha!
Fasting month. And I'm watching this diligently.
You aren't even fasting. I am
@@marcschweiz yes but I wish I am fasting with you.
Oh man is Steven’s food challenge again! 😂
I love watching this young man he checks so many things healthy or not
Ok, Whats next? I suggest becoming Vegan for 2 weeks or exercise everyday for 1 month. I am very interested to know the result!!!
yeah...I've been thinking about that too!
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore go for it Steve!
We all know the reason why you're still on intermittent fasting, Steve. Sacrificing your health for these experiments. Props to you.
thank you! Actually keeping with IF cos I'm still overweight according to my BMI. Getting old lah...
Thank you for putting your health on the life for our education. Take care
gotta change the title to "our love to Korean food" lmao
Steven visibly lost weight, happy his IF works for him
so far so good!
Well done Steve, keep it up and please continue making more educational programs like this 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
you bet!
LDL alone is not an indication of bad health, it's a misconception that has been recognized in the recent studies. it is only becoming damaging when glycated by sugar
my mans steven killing himself again
killing me softly with fried chicken...🤪
I love that Steven mention that he is on IF lifestyle despite the fact that he literally spam fried chicken for 2 weeks. It just shows that not only having a IF lifestyle helps losing weight but it's what exactly happening inside our body. Choosing the right REAL food and cooperating with IF definitely is the way to healthier and longer lifespan which not alot of people understand..
Thanks Steven for sacrificing for our knowledge
you're welcome!
I wish that har jeong kai was put as a comparison too! At least the older generation has something to compare it to/with. Overall a fun episode to watch
actually one of my meals during those 14 days was just that! I had a box of 12 pieces!
we appreciate your commitment. Great informative show
The perfect trifecta: Salt, Fat, and Crispy crunchy carb-laden batter.
Amen 🙏🏻
I already know the reason behind the red colors inside a restaurants. It is actually because of psychology. There’s something about the red color that makes customers eat fast and leave fast which leads to more customers. Hence why red is commonly used in fast foods resto.
Nice surprise to see Chiara!
Relax and the fried chicken, taste so good when I eat with the Delta Parole music on blast the fried chicken is love fried chicken is life.
Showing jollibee brand on show, but not trying their chieckenjoy is quite upsetting for the bee 😁🐝
Intermittent fast n fried chiken goes well together..3pc can last u whole day..🤗
I don't think it's sustainable. Think of this. An average piece of fried chicken is around 300-400 kcal. If you eat only 3pc for a day that's only 900-1200 calories.
To compare. An average male adult should eat around 2000 kcal. So it's very unhealthy. Unless you're like 100+ kilos, don't care about health and just wanted to look slim then by all means continue.
oh no, now i want fried chicken for dinner!
"I'm on fried chicken diet" seriously I don't know what else I can asked for anymore.
Yeah Steven back 😄😁
Heya Steve! Lol to your daughter’s comment on how you should do this often so they have more to eat 😂
Not a nutritionist myself but 3 bbt a week for a mth vs 1 pc fried chicken everyday for 2 weeks, was this shorter duration due to deadline issues set by the company? I do wonder abt your blood sugar Lv too due to the batter and the sauces involved.
Good job as always!
partly due to the filming schedule, but also because I felt 30 days of fried chicken every day would be way too much for me!
What is the weather tomorrow? Cloudy with a chance of Fried Chicken!
Thank you Steven! Great show!
thank you!
what a shocker, american style fried chicken is actually the healthiest
Maybe do a 2 week trial of eating 3 meals a day of hawker food, since there's a common belief that hawker food is unhealthy and nearly every Singaporean eats at a hawker center/food court once a day?
that's a bit hard because there is so much variety at the hawker centre...so it has to kind of be fixed on just one dish.
I wish kfc will tell me why the kfc in Singapore is so nice , juicy and marinated but the kfc in Australia tastes pretty normal, sometimes dry
This episode just made me hungry and craving for it =w=
Just 2 weeks? lol been doing a fried chicken diet since I learned how to bite. I'll volunteer for the 1 year experiment.
Why put your health at risk, Steven? You are our hero.
Nice to see another food adventure, Steven :)
any ideas what I should eat next? ha ha!
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore Healthy Vegetarian/Plant-based diet! Show people the benefits and perks of it!
Who is eating fried chicken everyday? Maybe once a month or something. We mostly eat roast chicken or put chicken in soup.
his insurance must be hella expensive
it's making me hungry!!!!!
It's children's favorite food aside from spaghetti so they can grow up loving it.
I love them so much I tried to create the taste without deep frying but baking.
Love such segments that CNA covers
They need add more condiments for dipping like ranch.
well... that's why ad blockers are there!
Now I want fried chicken.
Please, every limited edition at KFC Singapore I've tried has been disappointing in recent years.
punggol lasi lemak chicken wing is also very popular ALWAYS long queue when i walk or took a bus passed its kovan shop, anyone had tried it before as well?
@Jerome S its near kovan mrt then u walk across the road where there are rows of shop houses
@Jerome S cheers friend have a good lasi lemak lunch or dinner
Imagine fasting while watching this
When my friend drink water in front of my malay friend,she told him to face away fromher as it he go toilet like that.Sorry if I offended anyone.
If you really fasting fully because of religious purpose there will be nothing bothering you
Fried chicken is like love,everybody needs love and fried chicken.Not necessarily in that order, but both are nice.😉🤗😘
Omg it’s Chiara!!
Nice to see that Singaporean don't need to wear face mask anymore...
Now please kindly open your border lol, we miss visiting Singapore .. 14 months already 😭😭😭
one show they say no more than 2500mg spdium, this show she says no more than 2000mg. they lowered the amount in such a short time, or can't agree on the actual amount?
1:56 I'm to young to remember...ahahahha *fake laugh
Feels like this video was sponsored by KFC when you see how much airtime they have and the end results.
Yes, the elephant in the room is again totally being ignored which is the refined and oxidized oil. There is always too much distortion on the media in giving out proper information.
I must consume some variety of Fried Chicken at least three times per week. The best here in my hometown, Fried chicken tenders at Gasmart has little shop inside comes with French fries and biscuit
Wasn’t the first fried chicken in Singapore from A&W? The Chicken in the Basket?
22:57 woah murika
I wonder why is sweetness/sugar is not consider as bad and unhealthy?
i remember seeing an article about that asian guy who grew boobs coz of the hormones used in cultivating and raising a chicken for these chicken wings
I ever eating only fried chicken for a 3-4 days. I ate more than 1 whole chicken and surprisingly I lost 1 kg even thought it says that I eat more than 3000 calories but I still lose some weight, now I know it happens because chicken has 0 carbs
My concern for this topic for all the different brands would be as follow 1) Where the source of chicken comes from 2)Are they all fresh or frozen reason being the skin is just fried with different seasoning and when you bite it, inside some are of white meat, juicy and tender, other might otherwise. Hopefully this chapter will help consumers to unveil the truth of where the source of chicken , how they are bred and if frozen, how long before they are being used as it is really the common and highly favoured you can find everywhere in SG. Thank you.
we did dig a little into that...check it out here - th-cam.com/video/pTm06ZiU3ow/w-d-xo.html
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore Thanks you Steven for this link. I am asking reason is because if you have tasted all the brand of fast food chicken,besides the seasoning taste, upon biting and tasting, it should be honest and real on the texture, and freshness of the meat and taking a look at the bones.. hopefully you can give your honest food tasting review.. Enjoy and thank for your prompt response.
answering the real questions..
Another great episode and what a wonderful challenge this is: Eating fried chicken for 2 weeks!!! And Steven still managed to lose 1 kg! How good is that? Is there a sign up list to do this as I want in! LOL
ha ha...it's the IF that is helping me lose weight. And I also skipped all the sides...like fries, mash potatoe...
He took one for the team!
How come no mention of Har Cheong Kai? It’s history, it’s nutritional testing?
TBH I've been eating fried chicken with yogurt for the longest time, so chicken with ice cream isn't that far fetched imo...
can try a steak diet too ?
I would LOVE that! but cholesterol already a bit high so cannot lah...
Yes. Tenderbest from the i am a teacher show
Nowadays i would only eat it once in a while, maybe just to reward myself
KFC is far too salty for me. Anyway hardly eat fried chicken
OH NO, STEVEN AGAIN try salad next :)
I've actually been thinking about that...a vegan or vegetarian experiment?
@@Steven.Chia.Singapore Oh yes! I'll watch it!! It's to find vegan/ vegetarian choices in Singapore.
whats interesting is the american chain fried chicken in asia isnt the same as american fried chicken here or atleast the taste seems different to me! both are delectable though 😛
$45 Chicken and Waffles? Yardbird?
I remember when some people were trying to insult Tiger Woods by telling him to eat fried chicken. I was wondering was that for his black or asian side?
just like anything in life, do it in moderation
Not sure why Steve's doing yet another "eat nothing but..." experiment.. For Super Size Me, it was a court case and the defendant's lawyer's argument that spurred Morgan Spurlock to eat nothing but McDonalds.. and for the Bubble Tea episode, it was a survey question on customers drinking one a day... But not sure where I missed it, but did anything or any survey respondent say they ate nothing fried chicken...?
Second.. Steve finally decided to change car..?
They not say the chemical added in each this chicken brand ...... is not just salt , msg, sugar, spices... they add a lot food chemical in it...
KFC caught in 4K
Alamak Steven..Hope you take care of your health.love your show man.keep it up the good work.
I'm healthy and fine, thanks for watching!
If I were it would love pair it with rice and vegetables, can go on for a full month with this hehe
To be fair, fat itself doesn't make you fat... It's mostly on sugar
Majority of the people in Singapore are so ignorant, does anyone wonder why?
