Secret No More

Like Goober from Andy Griffin he couldn't keep a secret knowing all about the twelve top secret ingredients the mystery is gone now everyone in the world knows Colonel Sanders nephew putting on an innocent show, Since 1930 people ate his original fried chicken they loved it so much afterwards gave their fingers a licking just ordering the chicken had its air of mystery so secretive the CIA top agents were frustrated and filled with misery, Poor Colonel Sanders has long passed but its so sad the recipe of his original fried chicken now out of the bag now people will make it in their own kitchens at home leaving all the KFC's empty and employees all alone...

Good informative poem, Cheryl. Fret not though, I don't much like to cook nowadays, so KFC will get my business still. Cool poem, dear. Love always.

My dad LOVED KFC! When he was in Japan...years ago they were opening a KFC there and he made it to the Grand Opening. The Colonel was there and sat down and had lunch with my father. Loved it! Great poem...though very sad.

Wow Mike that is unbelievable! The colonel was probably dressed in his all white suit with black tie and horn rimmed glasses; what a treat that must've been for your Dad! Thanks so much for very kind comment and visit Mike!~Che :)

Dang! I must have missed the "revealing of the secret!" My belly fat will attest to my love for KFC though;-) btw, the new revolving "Colonel Sanders" just doesn't cut it IMHO. Love the CIA bit! Cheerdunkins! ~ j

Maybe the recipe is still on yahoo somewhere, then you can make yourself some, yum! Not for me though because I don't eat meat; glad you enjoyed my silly poem John! Cheerdunkins~Che :)
