About a week ago, in conversation with my son we were talking about some
of the things we used to do on a somewhat regular basis. Once a week,
I'd stop and pick up something for dinner on my way home from work. It varied from Papa Gino's pizza or cheesesteaks sometimes KFC. Nothing
fancy, but pretty good and saved a night of cooking. Some of those
things I've not had for 7 to 10 years now.
Yesterday, my son called and said they were getting some take-out and
would bring it to my house tonight to eat. Didn't think much about what
he would get but there are some local places, of course.
Well, they showed up with a bucket of KFC and some sides. Damn, it has
been a long time, so it was a nice treat!The closest to me is about 12
miles, just never bothered.
He will be working Sunday so that was my Father's Day dinner. Very appreciated.

Nice that he brought you dinner. It's been decades since I had KFC. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I got off work early today and thought about
stopping at the gas station that sells freshly fried chicken but I didn't.
Happy Father's Day in advance!

2 or 3 years since I've chowed down on KFC and it was
pretty good, too.

I was a little concerned. He said: I'm bringing take-out to eat at your house" but did not specifically say I was invited to join them. I
thought maybe they just wanted to use my table.

For me 2004 was probably the last time I ate tortured factory chicken
from KFC. The indigestion has since calmed down a lot.

Sounds like it damn near killed you, Master.
Glad you survived and finally feeling a little better.

Tonight I cooked up a Classic American burger.

KFC was always a treat when we were kids. Unfortunately, fried chicken
these days is cut so you'll be getting some ribs and spine with the
thighs and breast portions. That was a very bad thing to do to chickens.
They don't deserve such treatment.
Ribs have always been part of the breast portion.
Spine with the thighs is pretty common, too. It's cheaper
to use a bandsaw than a knife.
For me 2004 was probably the last time I ate tortured factory chicken
from KFC. The indigestion has since calmed down a lot.
In the old days, KFC chicken had nine separate pieces. The choice part
was the central breast piece. There was only one of those per chicken.
Beats the heck out of me where that piece was from. It's a mystery.
