Dear Kerry Pinker
Thank you for your letter and the informative pamphlet,
which should be most useful.
It was with no little surprise that I learned
the chickens used by your company
are just ordinary chickens from the country
of origin. This is because since writing to
you events have conspired which absolutely convinced
me that they must be some special breed of chicken.
Allow me to explain. As part of the research for my thesis I
stood outside a Kentucky Fried Chicken
outlet for a complete day, questioning
your customers as they came out. (I didn't
question why they went in!) One of the things
I was trying to establish was what exactly a
'piece' of Kentucky Fried Chicken is.
On collating the answers of over two hundred customers
it transpired that a 'piece' is a portion of a chicken
from the leg, thigh or breast of the bird, but more
usually from the leg or thigh - indeed if the proportions
of breast to leg and thigh pieces used by the outlet
in my research was representative of your other outlets
then you must be using chickens which have one breast
and thirty six legs - in other words a special breed
of chicken. However you now inform me that this is
not the case. It just goes to prove the old saying
'There are lies, damned lies and statistics'.
Thank you for your help. I don't suppose there's any chance of getting
hold of a copy of Colonel Sanders' secret recipe, is there?
Yours faithfully
