Good, that leaves more KFC for me.

My point -- which you seem to have missed completely -- is about being gullible.

It doesn't matter whether "the story" was something you read online, or something that arrived as an email, or something someone told you directly -- when someone makes ridiculous claims, you just ignore them; you don't spend time "wondering" if their claims are true.

Oh sorry to bother you ...oh great one.

There's a Popeyes, McD, and BK at nearly every US military base overseas.

I do like the KY fry & Popeye's. I have not had it in years, the system can't function after a meal. I would need a diaper after a bucket.:D

No bother.

i thought the move to "kfc" was to put less emphasis on "fried" so as to sound healthier.

About 2 years I did check out this and went to the KFC site.
At the time I remember reading the word "poultry product" on their site.

Why "poultry" ???

Someone once told me McDonald's "secret sauce" is more or less Thousand Islands dressing with bits of pickle. So what's The Colonel's 11 secret herbs and spices?

And how long has The Colonel had this swept back John Edwards-type of hairstyle?

Makes me think old man Sanders is sort of cool, though he is sort of dead...

81turboporsche 01-08-2009 04:08 AM

i think the secret sauce is mayo and ketchup and as for the colonels spices there probably from his ground up foes no one could wear a white suit like him, even foghorn leghorn gets chills over that man
