Sweet. I like KFC, all the counter people can speak and understand English well.

SnarfVader: Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee *beady* eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"

And you still bought his chicken, didn't you. We all did.

what wrong with you, I say you he dead.

Ricky Bobby:Well let me just quote the late-great Colonel Sanders, who said..."I'm too drunk to taste this chicken."

Failure pile in a sadness bowl.

Meh. Gimme Popeyes!

They plan to offer it on the internet, huh? Are they mailing it in?

I wonder if they'll edit out all the references to "darkies" & such in his
anecdotes?

Colonel Sanders' real secret was Dave Thomas.

If you grew up in the 60's and 70's pretty much everything you know about KFC is because of him.

I crave it fortnightly, but I dont know why!

bloobeary: Salt, Black Pepper, Flour and MSG.

Deep fry in a pressure-cooker.

You seem smug.

I thought that was the recipe for the extra tasty crispy?



OK, on topic: I actually cannot wait for this, I wonder what kind of recipe is in there for sausage gravy? That has to be in there, right?

Dammit, now I'm craving fried chicken and the only place that offers it in this country is... KFC!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Who among us hasn't found one's Foot shamefully tapping in time with the savage African Rhythms emanating from a Negro Hootenanny, and wished that Music with that kind of Primal Energy could somehow be played by White Men, on proper Christian Instruments?

And who hasn't sought Comfort in the dusky Embrace of a Slave Girl, and dreamt of finding a White Woman possessed of the same raw animal Passion and ample Hind-quarters?

While we can of course offer you no Solutions to those Scenarios, we can give you the next-best Thing: "Darkie-Style" Lard-fried Chicken-parts, prepared entirely by WHITE MEN and sometimes CHILDREN. Come taste the curious new "Eating-Bird" Sensation that is sweeping the South like a rapacious, invading Army, without any of the social Disgrace or Fear of Eternal Damnation.

Now I want to chew on a breast

Oh good god, now I need this book.

I got this Gutenburg Bible, and also the Colonel's Secret Recipe!



Chicken grease salt!

//hot, like KFC

SnarfVader: Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee *beady* eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"

That's all I needed. Thanks.

/craving it fortnightly

We hardly ever eat fast food chicken (I happen to make terrific fried chicken) but if we do, we go to Popeye's for chicken & red beans & rice, then to KFC down the street for sugary coleslaw and crack gravy.

SnarfVader: Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee *beady* eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"

Worked late last night. Came in tired, facing another long day at the grind. Coffee got cold after I got waylaid for an hour long last-minute unscheduled meeting. Day's off to a farking awful start.

Then this.

First quote.

Done in one.

My faith in humanity (or at least Farkerdom) restored, I now embark on the rest of my day with a smile.

Thanks SV!

You haven't been to Oregon, have you?

You need to get the Poulet et Poutine Bol at KFC Canada. It'll make you wonder WTF is wrong with US locations and their bowls.

Col. Ingus was a better Colonel.

Busy at work so I'm just pasting from Wikipedia:

In the mid-1950s, Kentucky Fried Chicken founder Col. Harland Sanders came to Fort Wayne to find restaurateurs with established businesses in order to try to sell KFC franchises to them. At first, Thomas, who was the head cook at the restaurant, and the Clausses declined Sanders' offer, but the Colonel persisted and the Clauss family franchised their restaurant with KFC and later also owned many other KFC franchises in the Midwest. During this time, Thomas worked with Sanders on many projects to make KFC more profitable and to give it brand recognition. Among other things Thomas suggested to Sanders that were implemented; KFC's signature chicken bucket (to keep the chicken crisp), reduce the number of items on the menu, focus on a signature dish, and introduce the trademark sign featuring a revolving red-striped bucket of chicken. Thomas also suggested Sanders make commercials that he appear in himself. Thomas was sent by the Clauss family in the mid-1960s to help turn around four ailing KFC stores they owned in Columbus, Ohio. By 1968 he had increased sales in the four fried chicken restaurants so much that he sold his share in them back to Sanders for more than $1.5 million.[4] This experience would prove invaluable to Thomas when he began Wendy's about a year later.

I only knew this because I've managed franchises for both companies in the past.

KFC had good biscuits and potato salad too

Is this considered "finger licking" or is it more like "finger sucking". Licking or sucking...THAT is the question.

let me guess. one of the main ingredients in every recipe is old timey racism.

it would be ironic if it contained any vegetarian or vegan recipes.

have old cook books that talk about cooking small game. many birds, small mammals and reptiles. gives advice on how to dress such prey items too. marmot stew or chipmunk. not so sure if it really is good, but when starving anything taste good. roof rabbit is mentioned too in a few hand written collections from my grand parents. it was the depression and it's a guide on cooking a cat. also numerous plants like dandy lions and such that we consider "weeds"

Jealous!! I loooove old cookbooks (I have been lately trying to add to my 70's microwave-everything collection). My grandma started the habit when I got some of her old cookbooks, yeah - I love the squirrel recipes and how everything required lard (or oleo). My absolute favorite is the instructions for butchering a hog. The instructions suggested getting the children to help with disembowelling (something to the effect that "It's a messy job and children dearly love a mess! Let them pull out the intestines, this "chore" often makes the small fry laugh!). Hilarious stuff.

Still like Popeyes and Roy Rodgers better.

"OH Colonel Angus!"

The first time I ever seen the SNL Colonel Angus skit I laughed so hard I blew Scotch out of my nose. The Cowbell skit has nothing on it.

Too bad they stopped following the recipie back in the 90's when they started using grade D ingredients. When I was a kid I liked it. Now it's terrible.

Popeye's chicken is better if you're going to eat lazy mental slave food. And it comes with tasty biscuits!

Grade D in fast food is a falsehood, there is no such thing as Grade D meat.

I have this LP jacket, but the vinyl record was missing. Boooo!
