KFC is the world's largest fried chicken fast food chain

, and its logo

KFC

is the abbreviation of English Kentucky

Fried

Chicken

(

KFC fried chicken

), which has become

in the world.

In 1931

, Harlan, the founder of KFC.

Sandoz

opened a restaurant in his hometown of Kentucky, USA. During this period,

Sandoz devoted himself to studying new methods of fried chicken, and finally successfully invented a secret recipe composed of eleven spices and unique cooking techniques. Its unique taste was well received by customers,

the restaurant business was booming, and

the secret recipe has been inherited to this day. In recognition of his contribution to his hometown, Kentucky

awarded him the honorary title of Colonel Sanders.

Colonel Sanders is dressed in a suit,

with white hair and a goatee, which has become the best symbol of KFC's international brand.

Colonel Sanders' success began when he was

41 years old and ran Corbin

gas station in KFC. In order to increase his income, he began to make his own snacks and provide them to passers-by. Because his reputation for cooking food attracted passers-by, his business grew slowly and steadily. While his reputation was growing, the then Governor of KFC

This fried chicken under pressure is the most delicious fried chicken he has ever tasted, and KFC fried chicken still maintains this recipe of using pressure cooker.

The colonel's career faced a crisis in the mid-1951s. The road next to his

Sanders

Cafe

restaurant was passed by a newly-built expressway, which

forced him to sell the restaurant. At that time, the colonel was

years old,

but he was still young and didn't need to live on social welfare, which turned out to be a turning point in his career.

The colonel used his old Ford car produced in

1946

and KFC, and sold the
