Rambles 'N' Shambles.: KFC

KFCKentucky Fried Chicken,

Why am I ranting about KFC whilst I am sitting here in the training college? Why am I not tapping away at some document that could further my education? Who knows, perhaps I grew bored of typing away nonstop at mindless drivel, or perhaps, and more truer, I have finished everything and have nothing to do.

KFC is a fast food franchise founded by good ol’ fun loving party man, Colonel Harland Sanders in 1952, though the idea of KFC's fried chicken actually goes back to 1930. (Gotta love the almighty Wikipedia for that lovely tid bit of salivating information.)

Reading up on the information, which we know just HAS to be right, since it is on WIKIPEDIA the MOST RELAIBLE source of information on the internet *cough* I have found that the secret recipe of 11 super secret herbs and spices is super locked up tight. In a security safe, deep below in an unknown place. There are only two executives at a time who have the keys and the knowledge to this ‘miraculous’ concoction.

I never really thought about it before, but why would such a recipe be under tight lock and key?Who cares if people know what the crumbs are made of, I for one would still go out and buy KFC even if the recipe was leaked. Yes I can understand it to a point, business wise. Heck if I had a multi-billion dollar recipe I’d probably swallow the paper it was written upon so that none but my inner intestines would ever know what it truly contained.

KFC, being a large corporation, attracts a lot of media attention, both good and bad. The main source of attention being that the corporation tortures Chickens. Now I for one am not na activist, nor am I a *insert opposite of activist here*I honestly don’t really like the idea of any torture, but at the same time I’m not going to run around throwing red paint at corporate executives. Hey its something I might do one day...actually...sounds kinda fun haha!

The point I guess I am making here is that I doubt such a large company can get away with the extremes of brutal torture, besides, the chickens are being killed, they are breed to be killed, chopped up and wrapped in the super secret herbs and spices recipie. Of course they aren’t going to get the royal treatment, why waste so much money if it’s going to die in a few short weeks?

I feel for the little chickens I really do, but today, in this modern fat lazy society of people, what do you want to change? I’m not against vegetarians, but if you don’t like KFC, just don’t go there.

I’m not big on the ‘in the know’ in KFC’s business. Heck, for all I know they really could be very cruel to their chickens, that knowledge, sad to say, isn’t going to stop me from eating there.

What will stop me from eating there is the high fat and salt content. Don’t get me wrong, I love KFC, and I love its crispy strips, but I really hate the grease, bleargh.

One last thing, I hear that KFC is phasing out their Fried stuff and replacing it with this new fangled Cayan grill.A bit Ironic don’t you think?

How can this be the Colonels new recipe if he is long dead eh?

Maybe they really DID freeze him, and thawed him out in this new age, If I were him, I’d avoid the I-phone. It would Boggle his mind!

Now look at this grinning face, surely the old kook wears a smile that young and old, male and female alike can trust.
