When Kentucky Fried Chicken changed it's name to KFC so niggers could think of it quickly then it started going down the drain by quality and it's demographic targeting, it's only getting worse. It's what happens when a company lets marketing and advertising types take over, they without a doubt fuck it up. Time and time again.

Black people aren't anywhere close to the only KFC customers. They're more likely than white people to have eaten KFC recently but not overwhelmingly so. White people in the US will still constitute more customers than blacks after you factor in the different starting population sizes you'd be applying these percentages to.

It's an amino acid in mass produced products like soft serve. There are plenty of places that serve it without. Even fucking baskin robbins, DQ, ben and jerry's, coldstone all have it free of the acid, because it never lasts longer than a day or two anyway.

And if you want to disgust people, instead of telling them it's made of chicken (or duck) feathers, you should be telling them it's made of fucking human hair. And it's also found in most shelf breads.

You keep making the same mistake. That's an index number comparing the race demographic's propensity to eat at those restaurants against the national average. It doesn't mean they eat there more often than they eat at KFC. It means those are the restaurants where black people constitute the highest portion of each restaurant's respective overall customer base.
To clarify, if Group A constitutes only 30% of the business at Restaurant #1 but constitutes 60% of the business at Restaurant #2, while Group B constitutes 70% of the business at Restaurant #1 and 40% of the business at Restaurant #2, does this mean Group A eats at Restaurant #2 more than they do at Restaurant #1? Or that Group B eats at Restaurant #1 more than they do at Restaurant #2? The answer is those statistics don't tell you anything about whether each group is eating more at the one restaurant than the other. They only tell you how over or under represented the given group is compared to the overall dining population. Group A could be going to the first restaurant ten times as much as the second and still be more represented in the second restaurant's demographics than the first.

Honestly, I don't mind it. Most fast food places here (Canada) are expensive as fuck, very few places have value meals.

My "go to" places for a $5 "meal" are Burger King (two cheeseburgers, small fry, small drink), A&W (buddy burger combo), and KFC ($5 fill-ups).

Best chicken is a toss-up between Popeye's or Mary Brown's, but I'm not always in the mood to spend >$10 on some fast food chicken.

>> No.11624427

>>11624316
PS: An index number of 311 in that context for Church's means that blacks are eating at Church's over 3 times the overall national average for eating at Church's. But again, this does not in any way mean they're eating at Church's more often than they eat at restaurants where their index number is much lower than 311. Blacks go to McDonald's way more often than Church's (everyone does), but their index number will be way lower for McDonald's because they aren't eating there at a rate significantly higher than the national average.
Or to use one last example to try to make this concept clear, a logging worker would have a much higher index number for how often they end up in a hospital due to accidental injury than they would have an index number for how often they end up in a grocery store. It wouldn't make sense to take that information and conclude logging workers are in hospitals more often than they're in grocery stores. What it actually means is they're more over-represented in the first setting than the second setting.

I don't think you understand since your "reasons" were wrong. Popeye's has been assessed as having a 40% black customer base, but they have an overall revenue of 200 million which is 115 times less than KFC's overall revenue. That means black people would still be going to KFC more often than they do to Popeye's even if they constituted only ***0.35%*** of KFC's customer base. So you're ridiculously far off here and seem to be how much more they eat at a restaurant compared to the national average of how much everyone eats at that restaurant with how much they eat at the one restaurant compared to the other restaurant.

If you really wanted to nitpick about which way to show how insanely far off you are you could've just checked the regional breakdown yourself to realize this doesn't help your case at all. 21% of KFC revenue is from the US. Using only US transactions KFC is still doing 24 times the business Popeye's is, which means you would still have blacks eating at KFC more often than they eat at Popeye's so long as you agree >= 1.7% of KFC's US business comes from black customers.

it isn't even nigged up. We have KFCs in the suburbs that have never seen a black person.

It's just that the food is horrific. KFC's chicken has an odor to it, it's chemically processed in some disgusting tenderizer compound that just smells like jet de-icing liquid mixed with kerosene. On top of that it's fried in disgusting oil that hasn't been changed in months. They are clearly using some kind of non-sodium salt substitute too to salt the fuck out of the chicken without adding muh sodium presumably to get around the fact that otherwise one breast piece would put a healthy adult into renal failure.

All their side dishes are gross too, the potato wedges are from frozen and just taste like salt. The mashed potatoes are ok but it's obviously processed crap, and the cole slaw is terrible.

This doesn't even mention the fact that the restaurants are physically disgusting. Every surface is coated in fryer grease and there is usually trash and dirt in every corner. The whole place smells like rancid fryer grease and chemically processed chicken.

Popeyes, Church's, etc are generally way better. Not to mention every city has a local place that is going to be better.

>Are we also gonna breeze over Church's which has a $872 million annual earning?
How is doing the same math with $872 million instead of $200 million going to help the end result of KFC still having more black business when KFC's at $23 billion with $4.8 billion from US sales alone? I'll do it for you anyway, but really you should've just inferred from the first time around that the difference is still way more massive than what an extra few hundred million would change. We can set the percentage of black customers for Church's at an even higher of 53% based on the relative difference between index numbers from that marketing link the other anon posted earlier (53% black customer patronage for Church's is a +31.8% relative increase over the 40% black customer base Popeye's has i.e. (311-236) / 236 = .318 and .4 + .4 * .318 = .53).
21% of KFC revenue from the US is 5.5 times Church's total revenue. Church's has plenty of revenue outside of the US that goes into the $200 million number, but I'm giving you 100% of it along with the higher black patronage rate of 53% just to show how far behind they still are.
.53 * $872 million = $462.16 million from black customers. For KFC's US business alone which is at $4.8 billion blacks will be using KFC more often than they use Church's if black customers constitute some portion of their US business greater than 9.6%. For Church's to draw more business from blacks than KFC does blacks would need to be heavily *underrepresented* among US KFC customers overall since the percentage of the US that's black is something like 12.3%. And as it turns out, blacks aren't underrepresented among KFC's US customer base. They're overrepresented, like they are in every successful fried chicken franchise's customer base.

Okay, I really don't understand the KFC hate. Yes I understand they probably get their chickens from shitty environments, and yes I understand it's not the best quality food on the planet. However, this is to be expected from any fast food place to be honest.

Every month or so my parents order KFC, usually they just get a bucket of chicken and some sides with biscuits. Honestly, it tastes like fast food fried chicken, it's extremely salty greasy chicken. I don't see what about that is shockingly bad, isn't that exactly what you're trying to taste if you're eating fried chicken? Salt, breading, grease, and chicken.

Out of those, I would probably say Subway, Pizza Hut, and Dominos are the most obviously shit quality.

KFC and CFA are both low tier, the only reason why people like CFA is because it's a white christian establishment and they have a playground to keep the kids entertained after McDonald's and other shitty fast food chains tore theirs down. The food is honestly not that great. Raising Cane's has the best tendie in town easily, and their prices effectively keep poorfags out of the establishment so it's always nice. Good house lemonade too.

Popeye's and Church's are the only decent dark meat establishments yet both are always fluctuating in quality anyway because they hire high school kids and people with broken dreams.
