Hello Skip,
See, you're saying "KFC is exactly what you need" because they have enough money to make the brand recognizable. Probably the little store on the corner has better chicken but you won't go there if you don't know the place. And this is pretty common situation in many countries including America itself.
Actually, I'm one of those guys who goes looking for places to eat. And I live right near Roscoe's, a little chicken & waffle place of legend (check out Notorious BIG's "Goin' Back To Cali"). And I'm saying "SOMETIMES" KFC has what you need. Damn, this is making me want a bucket of original recipe.
The other thing is that in small places you have no choice at all no matter what are you craving for. People who live in the towns with no internet, two TV channels, one radio station and four restaurants would not understand what are we talking about. They don't know anything about the food besides KFC or whatever they have.
These places are fewer and further between these days, in America. I get email fr places that I can't believe. skip h
