I feel sorry for KFC.

Edited on Sun Jan-13-08 10:02 AM by HypnoToad

The food chain started as "Kentucky Fried Chicken".

Then they changed it to the initials "KFC", while still serving the same lard-in-a-bucket as usual.

Once the Food Police arrive, will they have to broil everything; call themselves "KBC" because "Kentucky Broiled Chicken" sounds absolutely disgusting?

1. I'll have the two piece meal- breast and wing extra crispy.

Mashed potatoes and gravy and macaroni and cheese for the two sides.

7. Pigeons like to roost on top of the oversized rooftop bucket at the KFC....

Edited on Sun Jan-13-08 11:43 AM by pinniped

around here.

It doubles as a chimney and once they fall in, they become Kentucky Fried Pigeon or Kentucky Fried Squab, since they can not fly anymore.

KFC is simply the greasiest chicken I ever had.

12. I can understand McDonalds etc, but KFC makes me VERY VERY ill.

And I have been very poor, and couldn't afford to eat at any restaurant, so not sure how true that is.

10. you feel bad for them? and not the people and chicken they use for their profits

the food police also tries to ensure that there arent high levels of arsenic in your water, are you upset about this too?

15. Some advice, if I may so offer to you:

Don't take everything you read so seriously. Things people post may not be what you think. That's why people communicate; try to find out how and why other people think the way they do.

Just to clarify my OP, the "food police" bit was a joke. Not everybody has the same sense of humor, and many people - when reading something they do not find humorous - simply forget about it. I can't and won't control how you think.

Didn't you once say something like that to me, like how some posts are just meant to be general comments and not personal attacks or trolling? ;)

16. i didnt think it was a personal attack or trolling, the food police 'thing' has been around a while

and it would be funnier if people realized that the food police have saved their lives several times from corporations like pepsi co. owners of KFC

14. Could have been worse...

"Kentucky Atherosclerotic Heart Disease" sounds bad, but "KAHD" is rather snappy.

(BTW, this is how they never run out of wings.)
