For many years, Catholics did not eat meat on Friday because the church
had a contract with Mrs. Paul's fish sticks.
The new pope is from the US, a first. Rumor has it, Friday will be designated Kentucky Fried Chicken Day. Final contract negotiations
nearing completion.

Isn't that a sign of diabetes?

I can't remember the last time I had chicken from KFC. 20 years, at
least.

Over 40 years for me. I had KFC twice back then and after each
I suffered badly from indigestion. So I have never felt like
repeating the experience.

You are not alone. I made the mistake of having some back in 1995. Past experience made me leery of having it but someone gave us some and I had
a piece. It made me feel just as bad as the one about 20 years before
that. Never again.

I don't know what KFC in Canada does to its chicken. I've never been
sick from eating it here. There are better places to get fried chicken,
so when the mood takes me I go to one of the mom & pop chicken places.
I'd like to try Korean fried chicken, but they all seem to add some
kind of gloppy glaze afterward.

I am assuming that they use the same recipe, ingredients and methods
that they rest of the franchise uses. Perhaps we have different
tolerances for the amount of grease we can handle in a meal. I always
assumed that I had the family gall bladder and it turned out that I did
have a problem there.
I have had so few experiences with KFC that I can remember most of them.
I remember having it when a kid and the first store opened up locally.
It think it was a the novelty that made it appeal but she almost never
ate out so that was a one shot deal. The next was when we moved to a new house in a new city and the contractor kept telling my mother not to
worry about dinner he would bring it. We waited and waited and waited
until the guy finally showed up at about 7 pm with one crummy bucket of chicken. One bucket for a family of 6 including four teenage boys, and
no sides at all.
The next was when I was first dating my wife and we got some take out
KFC and took it to her apartment. It was just entirely unappealing.
Maybe we weren't feeling great to begin with but it just made us feel
bad. The last was when we were out on strike in 1995 and one of our
managers went out and got us strikers a bucket of it. I was ware because
of my bad experiences and there was no washroom around. I had one small piece. I ended up leaving to find a toilet.

I had a simple, austere, existence growing up. Getting a bucket of KFC
and sides was a pretty joyous event. The chicken was a lot better in
those days - you didn't get weird pieces that requires a PHD to eat
around the bones. The fall of KFC is pretty much the reason we should
live it up while we still can.

I have an iron stomach. KFC is relatively convenient to where I live.
My wife gets "original recipe" and I get "extra crispy". We never had
a problem until covid.
However, since covid, all fast food drive-throughs, out here, fail in
one way or another; poorly cooked food, mixed up order, "No hablo", or
all three at once. We're five years in, and it's not getting better.

Back on the 70s my FiL used to joke about KFC's Trudeau bucket. It was
full of left wings and assholes.
