I think it's much better. However, I also don't enjoy KFC chicken. I find it slimy and too saturated with grease.
McDonald's used to fry their foods in a blend of coconut oil, tallow & lard. Then the charlatans pressured them into switching their fryers to biodiesel (aka Soybean oil). Now McDonald's french fries are soggy.
I expect KFC ruined their product in a similar manner.
