This is a normal post Don't get me started!
I was in Raleigh in December, and was introduced to 'biscuits'.
They use them for all kind of things, like replacement for bread or buns on a sandwich. Often with breakfast meals.
Not as sweet as a scone though. Just loose and doughy.

It's apparently a very southern food.

This is a normal post She fallen off the diet wagon again has she?
What is she thinking? She is thinking of all the lovely free KFC she can now gorge upon and all the Big Macs she can scoff thanks to the Colonels big wallet.

This is a normal post They start by making really shit chicken
and then work the rest of the menu around just how awful that is.

Simples!

This is a normal post Popeye's Chicken is much better
made with New Orleans / Louisiana flavors (and really good Red Beans & Rice as a side dish - Yum!)

When a KFC store is near a Popeye's , the KFC usually fails...

This is a normal post It is constantly voted "Best Chicken" in New Orleans (and they are very choosy!)
www.popeyes.com/menu.php (but you can't smell it over the net - Web 3.0?) Looks like Germany is as close as they are to you right now. hosted.where2getit.com/popeyes/pulldown.html

anyway, I have been eating "southern cooking" for many years, not exactly healthy and life-giving, but a good batch of fried chicken is one of those essential items that has to be done just right. Popeye's gets it, KFC will do in a pinch, but any other fast food chain I have ever tried has been worse than horrible. If you can get it "home-made" like at a Black Southern Baptist church dinner, or even a "good ol' chicken shack" kind of diner you will experience true food joy! Crunch-factor, meaty, salt, pepper, steamy hot aroma...

and it has to be real pieces with bones n stuff in them - none of those "Finger" things, please!

It is sort of like the difference between a really good fresh local fish n chips and some frozen fission-chip microwave product from a motorway restaurant.

This is a normal post Needs!!!!!
Need this now!!

Wonder how much it would cost to UPS some over in a vacuum sealed box? If I win the euro lottery jackpot this week, I shall have some flown over on a first class seat. Just like Bono's hat, but more tasty.

This is a normal post good fried chicken needs to be eaten right away!
it is OK cold the next day if it is really home-made, but even Popeye's fades a bit too much after a even hour. You would be better off taking a road trip to Germany (however, I don't know if they change the recipe outside the US.

(I remember having KFC in Osaka one time - something I would not recommend to anybody!)

This is a normal post well, I had one of those free KFC grilled meals -
Tastes like chicken, more or less.
Not as good as normal KFC, more like airline food.

At least it is real pieces with bones...

This is a normal post I remember going through a drive through KFC in LA about 15 years ago
Bloke asked me if I wanted hot biscuits with my meal, WTF??? I got overly confused and just drove on to the window with visions of melted wagon wheels all over my chicken breast. Dont ask me strange questions about food when Im hungry. Biscuits come cold, preferably covered in chocolate and are best dunked in tea.

This is a normal post Not to mention
the "catfish meals in participating locations". Not your average fast food fare.
