Not only that, but EVERYONE knows that the reason they changed their name to "KFC" is because they are no longer legally allowed to use "chicken" in their name, because actually they sell artificial chicken parts that are grown in laboratories.

How would a woman would eat a piece of chicken under her black sheet. Wouldn't it get her sheet greasy? In the name of cleanliness, maybe she could remove her face covering so she could eat.

My understanding is that he had such a foul mouth it would make a Koslim blush.

if it was not for the sacrifices of the 2/5 and 3/5 Marine Corps in Falluajah this story would only be a fantasy.

A radio show I listen to uses this scene from "So I Married An Axe Murderer" as bumper music about once a week:

Stuart Mackenzie: Well, it's a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there's a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as The Pentavirate, who run everything in the world, including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.
Tony Giardino: So who's in this Pentavirate?
Stuart Mackenzie: The Queen, The Vatican, The Gettys, The Rothschilds, *and* Colonel Sanders before he went tits up. 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!"
Charlie Mackenzie: Dad, how can you hate "The Colonel"?

Even in the category of "chain fast food restaurants", there's an option out there that is far superior to Taco Bell: Chipotle (which is affiliate with McDonald's, although they don't advertise it). The food is actually GOOD.

You should have NO problem finding a taco de lengua at all...... I much prefer the taco de cabeza...... trust me on this.

This is one of those "if you knew what went on in any restaurant you would always eat at home" stories.
About 25 years ago a friend's family picked up some KFC and brought it home. His little brother would take the fried batter off the chicken and eat it and then eat the chicken. After finishing the deep fried goodness he looked down at his piece of chicken and there was what looked to be an earthworm stuck to the chicken. Somehow it got between the batter and the chicken. Don't know how, and I saw it so I know it is true.

This is back when it was called "Kentucky Fried Chicken", not KFC.
I wonder if they could do the same in the middle east but use bacon.

re: #77 hermeneutics

How would a woman would eat a piece of chicken under her black sheet. Wouldn't it get her sheet greasy? In the name of cleanliness, maybe she could remove her face covering so she could eat.

Then again, I betcha the men bring home the chicken. Sorta like bringing home the bacon.

re: #131 Occasional Reader

I have nothing but good things to say about Chipotle. And I think at least some of can be fairly described as Mexican (not that I really give a damn... my rule for food is like Duke Ellington's for music; if it tastes good, it IS good, I could give two craps if it's "authentic" or not).

Chipotle is a Texas run company and as such they know a thing or two about Mexican food. Their carnitas is quite good.

When I saw him playing hoops for the troops (not with them, but for them - exhibition like) in Afghanistan this morning (he seem to always be playing b-ball), I thought to myself "what a racist stereo type". I joked with my my wife, when is he going to eat fried chicken. So please forgive me, I couldn't it when I saw this piece. I was uncomfortable making the reference, but I thought WTF.

re: #80 Palandine

A radio show I listen to uses this scene from "So I Married An Axe Murderer" as bumper music about once a week:

Stuart Mackenzie: Well, it's a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there's a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as The Pentavirate, who run everything in the world, including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.
Tony Giardino: So who's in this Pentavirate?
Stuart Mackenzie: The Queen, The Vatican, The Gettys, The Rothschilds, *and* Colonel Sanders before he went tits up. 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!"
Charlie Mackenzie: Dad, how can you hate "The Colonel"?
Stuart Mackenzie: Because he puts an addictive chemical in his chicken that makes ya crave it fortnightly, smartass!

My favorite part of that movie was the wedding, with the bagpiper playing Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy".

And now, with the introduction of American fast food, they'll all be gaining weight in Iraq. Soon, no one in Fallujah will be able to fit into their suicide bomb vests anymore.

re: #112 Occasional Reader

Even in the category of "chain fast food restaurants", there's an option out there that is far superior to Taco Bell: Chipotle (which is affiliate with McDonald's, although they don't advertise it). The food is actually GOOD.

Where I live there is even a better option..... it's called Mexico.

I could almost hit the border fence with a rock.

When is the first kosher deli opening?

When the first McDonald's opened in Moscow, I told my friend who had escaped from Lithuania (then a Soviet-occupied puppet state) that the USSR was doomed and would fall within five years.
She thought I was crazy.
It actually fell about a year and a half later.

Fortunately, the Democrat Convention is not in Fallujah...otherwise the KFC wouldn't meet convention guidelines and would be closed.

By the way, if you remove the skin from KFC chicken, it's not greasy and there are no digestive problems.
And Taco Bell is actually one of the healthier fast food places, especially if you order from the fresco menu.
I've never had a bad reaction to any of their items, even the regular ones.
Here's a cool site where you can look up nutrition details on hundreds of chain restaurants: [Link: www.dietfacts.com...]

Col. Harlan Sanders has landed in Iraq and all is well. Maybe the democrats and moveon.org will "lambaste" him in the New York Times. The surge has worked, and the great white father hath brought them manna from Kentucky.

re: #27 Mr Pancakes

Starbucks can't be far behind.

If it's not there already. I'm in Kuwait and you see Starbucks EVERYWHERE in the Arab world! They have as many as 4 or 5 in one shopping mall! So you will DEFINITELY see Starbucks in Iraq.

Good news for the people of Fallujah. I hope they can use transfats there, the product here has gone downhill since the NYC ban on transfats in restaurants took hold thanks to Nanny Bloomberg.

KFC is terrible now that the evil government is forcing them to stop the trans fatty acids to cook in. Liberal commies. The food tastes like crap. Screw KFC by me now. Also, Starbucks is shrinking, many stores are closing- the collapse continues- a cup costs more than a gallon of gas!

re: #240 Osama Bin Asshat

Yeah, GO AWAY gurls. Color code pink wacko ugly.

Remember arriving at Al-Jubal in August of '90, hotter than hell and expecting "Iraqi Frogmen" to jump out from every corner when lo and behold the first thing I see and recognize was good ole Col Sanders's goteed Mug Smiling at me with the promise of a finger licking good time to be had by all. I would save as much as I could of my "allowance" from my wife and sneak over there as often as possible. It wasn't "exactly" the same 11 herbs and spices but it was better than their interpretation of a cheeseburger. Many a Marine got a little piece of home from KFC and still remember that sense of escape if for just a few minutes.

Damn, and here I am stuck near Samarra...
