This is not what you want to hear if you love fried chicken fast and live in Illinois. At least 8 locations in the state closed permanently this week and it appears they did so with no warning whatsoever.
There are multiple reports that KFC's in Missouri and perhaps even other states have removed a fan favorite, but there are conflicting reports. It's a real fast food Show Me State mystery.
There's never a good reason for violence, but this might be the worst example of overreaction ever. A St. Louis KFC worker was shot after telling a customer that they had run out of corn. Terrible.
Last week I went on a family vacation to Northern Kentucky (suburban Cincinnati) to visit my mom and my sister. We decided to take a day trip to Cumberland Falls.
Since it happened to be the same exit, and I have always wanted to visit, we took a quick detour to visit the Kentucky Fried Chicken Museum in Corbin, Kentucky...
