So, what is the better choice?, fried chicken piece fried in trans fat free oil or a cheeseburger with 1/4 lb patty and the typical condiments and the enriched bread with hfcs?

    The fried chicken is going to have lots more calories than a piece of bread with High fructose Corn Syrup no matter what kind of oil you use.

    If that's your only choices, just eat both, because your goals don't seem to matter...

    The question was better choice, but better for what? Health? Or taste and yummyness? Its food!

    As mentioned in other threads, you can't judge the "healthiness" of an individual food, without looking at the context of the overall diet.

    That said I love the idea of the fried chicken cheeseburger, but only if the buns are Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

    Made with the Reece's peanut butter and jelly donuts.

    There isn't enough information given to determine which is better IMO.

    Depends on your goals.
    For me probably the burger as fried chicken usually has a lot of calories and is high sodium. It desn't fit my goals as well. I would have a regular hamburger instead of a cheeseburger though to make it fit my goals better.

    Depends on your goals, the rest of your diet, etc.

    Why are those the only choices?

    And fried chicken piece except wing b/c too small.

    I have no idea what sentence fragment means. But for me, I'd want to know:

    What condiments/toppings are on the burger (if any)? How big is the burger? What is the fat content of the meat and cheese on the burger? What is the fiber content of the bun?

    What type of breading is used on the fried chicken? What part of the chicken is being fried (breast, leg, thigh, etc.) and how big is it? What type of oil is being used?
