Read the book Fast Food Nation. Once you read that you will never ever eat Fast Food again especially KFC. I have not eaten KFC in 5 years after reading that book. MacDonalds and BK is just as bad.

Oh Colonel S He of Sanders fame Plucking clucky chickens from Kentucky A new song for us all to sing While the cash register goes ring-ading-ding It doesn't matter That we're getting fatter Does it?
Colonel Sanders also invented the 5 second rule... it has since saved many restaurants millions if not billions of dollars.
Only it if is on the ground for over 5 seconds then it gets thrown away...
this is true cause in 1972 worked at one of his places the supervisor said the temp of the grease ill kill any germs that was on the chicken parts on the floor .....Maybe they have changed.
No...is ok transient.....a topic I am quite fond of. I would love to have a shelter/rescue for dogs and other small animals. Would go to every humane society and take them, the sick, the old, the dying.....let them live thier lives out in freedom, on a parcel of land, not a 6x6 crate or cage. Now if only Lotto649 would draw my damn numbers already!
We were ranch kids... Folks from around would have almost get togethers... same with beef... corral them, shot them in the head, hang them... branding new calves, we'd wrestle them down... a smell you don't forget, and sound... Calving and lambing seasons... I had the hardest time with the rabbits.
And now you have the "benefits" of "genetically enhanced" foods for your convenience! Thanks , especially to Monsanto your basic vegetables are "infected" with all sorts of genetic enhancements, even the feed used for animals that go to your fast-meal places. Here in Europe all this has been outlawed and banned. Monsanto has a number of lobbyists on Capital Hill to make sure no laws are passed or even tabled against them or those other corporations that are genetically altering your foods. In Europe there are several excellent documentaries dealing with this, and especially Monsanto corporation....while in the US, they are preventing the airing of many of these shows...even on PBS...most complaints by farmers and livestock ranchers in the US are complaining of the pressures put on them to , not only plant and feed their "products" but are being threatened if they make their complaints public. Parents groups and some schools are trying to ban these foods but are being litigated into bankruptcy by the firms and meanwhile, the tumours are growing, behaviors are being "modified"...ahhhh, the blessings of "corporate america"...friends of the State, enemies of the people.....
