KFC's secret recipe for Africa
CNN ^ | 01/15/2016 | Earl Nurse

With over 1,000 restaurants in the continent, KFC is the leading fast food chain in Africa.

But its dominance is limited to South Africa, home to about 80 percent of them.

Despite its success, the company faces many challenges as they try to establish the brand in other regions, for example by making sure its food is relevant and recognizable to Africans.

Serving jollof rice, a spicy dish native to West Africa, is one way in which KFC is improvising to win over palates in Africa’s largest economy, Nigeria.

Kentucky fried puppy? The article did say: for example by making sure its food is relevant and recognizable to Africans.

They could pay obama to endorse it, picture him with a big smile while he says "finger lickin good!" Or maybe he could say "my second favorite thing, after A$$"

A chance for fun and profit!

Think of the commercial potential for your proprietary recipe - Liberian Free Range Monkey Meat Kebabs.

For the past several years, KFC hasn’t been recognizable to most Americans.

“KFC is improvising to win over palates in Africa’s largest economy, Nigeria”

So what, KFC takes wholesome local dishes and coverts them into classic KFC fare by adding massive amount of salt, breading, chemicals, and deep fat frying in cheap cooking grease?

That Colon Blow skit was modeled after Fiber One, I’m sure of it. I came home one night during college with an “intense hunger” and a box of that and milk was all that was available. I think i mowed through 3 or 4 bowls of it. I assert that that cereal was comprised entirely of fine to coarse hardwood sawdust with something like Metamucil as a binder.
