Why does KFC have weird pockets of extreme fans in different parts of the world? I was talking to a guy from Vietnam the other day who said when he was growing up (he's in his late 20s) KFC was the only real American restaurant he remembered growing up in Saigon/HCMC and everyone thought it was tits. It's also crazy popular in a few other countries where you wouldn't really expect it to be.

I figure it's two things.

No religion (except maybe Jainism) has a prohibition on chicken.

Most 3rd world diets are short on fat.  The human body is programmed to crave fat.  And the entire secret to the Colonel's chicken was he found a way to inject more fat into chicken than you get from normal frying.

Yeah now even high-end uberrestaurants who have fried chicken on the menu use that method.

Ugh, reheated KFC.

Are you mad?

It cold and enjoy

Cold chicken is good but not when it's fried.

Sometimes I wonder if you were even born here.

No and why would you, honestly? Bone-in chicken always has better flavor.

Because I was curious? Also, I don't actually like KFC. The last two times, I felt sick and ate very little.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Speaking of bad mistakes, I ate some BK Onion Rings and it set my GERD off. Lordy, I'm a mess right now.

Wendy's has spoiled me on BK.  The rare times I get BK I think the meat has a real soy vibe to it.

Wendy's has become pretentious barf.

They can shove their new fries up that redhead's ass.

My bad.  If I'd known you were so touchy about BK I wouldn't have said anything. :sleep:
