Fried and true? topic

I guess PETA will be clucking about this one.

I do not eat takeout , but I will make baked chicken. Yum.

Kraft Dinner is delicious, BTW.

I guess that's good news. :) I don't eat at KFC though, not that I don't like it.

In moderation, but over here, Churches, Popeyes and Bojangles fried chicken are definately better than KFC.

Mmmmm... Fried rat.
I guess it's a mixed blessing.
A boon to our economy.
A bane to our digestive systems.

With enough done to it, who really cares if you're eating chicken, rat, or a stray cat? I mean, we all eat Chinese take-out don't we? Mmm mmm good.

Given that the KFC near where I work has legions of rats swarming around the grease traps every night, I think I'll pass. They might go where the food is, but that doesn't mean I have to follow them...

Don't know if I've had rat or cat - but I know I am an oddball amongst my friends, in that I will pretty much eat anything if it tastes good.

Giant pouch rats are frequently eaten in Africa. But I dunno. The giant mole rat I think I'd have some trouble getting down...

Blah...yeah. That sounds pretty gnarly. Not saying I'd go out of my way to eat any of these more "international" dishes...

:eew:

Honestly, the most exotic I've done is alligator.

"Tastes like chicken!! !"

Now back to our KFC thread already in progress...

I think the British should stick to fish & chips washed down with a proper pint of bitter...

I don't know what they do or how they cook their chicken, but I get sick every time I eat it. I really like their cole slaw though.

I totally agree with you. I don't want to go on that trip of a life-time to Cornwall and be confronted with "The Colonel" bow-tied mug.
