      I once decided to try their weird sandwich that had two pieces of chicken as the bun. The lady at the drive through legit said “I don’t know how to make that.” I drove away and forgot that KFC even existed.

        White pepper was the secret. The salt is put on by 11 guys named Herb.

      Everything good about KFC has nothing to do with their actual chicken: parfaits, bowls, wedges (I don’t know if parfaits are around anymore)

        Any fast food place that has wedges gets a second look from me.

        I fuck with potato wedges.

    Sugar and petroleum based synthetic flavorings with a 10000000000000000000000000000% mark-up. Yay!

      I don’t think that jelly beans have much petroleum in them, but if you want to eat the raw ingredients and avoid any markup — which I’m pretty sure is a few orders of magnitude lower — I imagine that one could do so.

    Stupid as this is, I’m not opposed to more Wonka-level weird flavors in jellybeans.

    The grass and black pepper flavors in the Harry Potter ones kinda slapped.

    I’ve always wondered what happened to the fryer-skimmings that were packaged up at the end of the night and sent off to corporate. Guess they’ve finally stockpiled enough and it’s time to put the plan into motion.

    Too bad it’s American garbage nonetheless, so I’ll never taste it!

    Enjoy your isolation, fascists/corporatists. I’m sure it will turn out great.
