Since I'll never have another opportunity for this fun fact
Colonel Sanders wasn't a military colonel, but a Kentucky Colonel. Every so often the governor of Kentucky picks some people because of their deeds to be given an honorable title and act as advisors to the
governor.
That's pretty smart. Make your house smell like kfc all the time so it makes you want to buy more from them. It's perfect advertising.
Me
It was an honorary title granted for appearing in "gone with the wind" & owning slaves.
I wanna smoke some meat with this wood and see how it tastes.
It's not a real log, I personally wouldn't cook over it. Probably doesn't smoke either since it's made of recycled shit. Probably wax, chemicals and either sawdust or cardboard.
Jus' like gran-pappy used ta make.
Are you talking about the chicken or the log?
They should make it smell like a decent chicken joint instead
Is there a difference?
some establishments could totally use it to lure wandering and unsuspecting customers. "We got fried chickens in this general direction!"
"Aw, sweet, that's gotta be a fried chicken stan- WTF it's Bed, Bath & Beyond again?! FFFFFFFFFFFFFF-"
He also shot a man to death in self-defense.
I liked it better when I thought Sanders is a fictional character made for promotional purposes.
He was a pretty great guy from a quick Wikipedia read, he was very critical of what the KFC brand was putting out towards the end of his life and wasn't afraid to let people know it.
As late as 1979 Sanders made surprise visits to KFC restaurants, and if the food disappointed him, he denounced it to the franchisee as "God-damned slop" or pushed it onto the floor
He and his wife ended up opening their own restaurant called the Colonel's lady
I can't find anything supporting either claims, his parents owned a farm (80 acres and no sign of any sort of wealth)
he was pretty nomadic with his jobs, like he was everything from a train fireman to a life insurance salesman to a ferry boat operator before being given a service station rent free from shell which lead to him getting into restaurants.
The guy dropped out of school in seventh grade and left home at 13.
There are a lot of sources out there (including from Sanders himself) corroborating the shooting story. It's 100% true but, IMO, justified. There was a dispute over a billboard, and a rival party confronted Sanders and his business partner with a gun first. The guy shot Sanders'
partner dead on the spot, and Sanders shot the dude back and wounded him severely. Court found in favor of Sanders afterward.
one gives you diarrhea, the other cures it.
Did you know Ronald McDonald wasn't actually a real clown, and paid the hamburgler to forge his clown college degree?
this post is 300% funnier if you read it thinking of the other Sanders we know
Someone who hates guests?
is the smell just chicken or does it include the musk of overworked minimum wage college students?
I mean, the article does say "Enviro-log" So I'm not sure if there's a difference. Depends on if you believe that the 7th herb&spice is saw dust or not.
yeah, the shooting story was the one I wasn't doubtful on, the rival party painted over a sign pointing to his resteraunt and it went down hill from there.
The 11th herb and spice is led.

If you want your house to smell like KFC you can just buy KFC. At least then you can eat it
