Where’s the Wienerschnitzel?.....
And the Wattaburger?
See I knew it was about the OIL!
LOL...I’ll bet we won’t see that dimwit Pam Anderson protesting outside that KFC!
We had a BurgerKing at Bagram in Afghanistan... no kidding, it was just a counter, not a store, but hey, it was good!
Aww, so nice to see KFC with a brilliant marketing decision and also allowing the guy to have a little taste of home. As much as you can in Fallujah anyway.
Awesome.
Nice to see there’s a cop watching traffic out front too....keeping things moving along.
I suspect that the footage was shot at the same sound stage in which Nasa faked the moon landing...
ROTFLMAO!
This war is SOOOOOO Over.
Heh, only kidding, but...KFC? All those guys getting something to eat? This is too good. Have the Dems seen this?
If they saw this, they would say: “I’m sure it is propaganda.”
I dunno, but I do know a fast food shop in Kurdistan called MaDonald :-D
“Sir! We could find no more thugs in the area, not even Baghdad Bob, and not in the shop, but we did find out that fried chickens were pretty delicious. You Copy?”
“Keep the area secured and bring home the evidence for evaluation. I want it home, hot!”
Col Sand-ers!
LOL! We need to do a dub in on the video...I might do that tonight...This is just great!
After reading the book about what happened there, this is just amazing.
Those guys kind of lazily walk over to the KFC the way I might...of course, wearing 60 lbs of “stuff”, fully clothed head to foot with a kevlar pot on in 120 degree heat would make me walk lazily too.
Didn't he serve under General Tso?
Neither one fought in the war because they were both CHICKEN!
UNNNGH!
Maybe you can find an adult who can read my post to you.
Unfortunately, there’s no one here but womens and childrens.
Just us chickens.
Eggsactly!
I am reading that word 2 different ways.....thinking I better stick w/choice #1.
The comments following the video are the best.
“Nice to see there’s a cop watching traffic out front too....keeping things moving along.”
I wish we had that here. Get a wreck that causes the highway to pile up and no cops anywhere to be seen. You find one and he just tells you to let the insurance companies handle it.
Krispy Kreme agrees to 25 franchises in Turkey
Tuesday, July 29, 2008 - 2:48 PM EDT
Winston-Salem-based Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Inc. announced Tuesday it has reached a franchise agreement with a division of the Almana Group to develop 25 retail locations during the next five years in Istanbul, Turkey.
Almana Group also operates franchises for KFC and Pizza Hut in Turkey.
"We're confident that the Almana Group, with their extensive restaurant experience, is uniquely qualified to introduce Krispy Kreme in this important marketplace," said Jeff Welch, senior vice president and general manager of global franchise operations and development for Krispy Kreme.
About three-fourths of Krispy Kreme's total stores are operated by franchisees, and half are located outside the United States. Turkey will be the 15th country where the company's doughnuts are available.

Yeah, I’m sure you’re right...
“On Friday I put in a call to KFC headquarters to ask if the Fallujah chicken joint is the real deal. KFC told me they were looking into the matter. Today, Yum! Restaurants International spokesman Christophe Lecureuil wrote me back:
I understand you wanted some details about the store in Falluja that looks like a KFC. This store is not approved by KFC International and we have working with the US Military to warn the troops of this situation.”
Hehe...I am willing to bet money those Marines did not give a flying eff about whether it was an official KFC or not...:)
