wwe, you're very into your job. I suggest you open up your own franchise, you've got the determination.
I've eaten KFC here in SA and in New Zealand. Preferred the NZ menu, though the taste was the same. Though, I remember KFC being better some 12 years ago, the coating crispier, the chicken fresher than it is today. Liked KFC much more back then, today I prefer Nando's.
On a side note, I remember reading a few years back that some students at a university in the US bought some KFC in order to do chemical analysis on the coating to uncover the blend of "11 secret herbs and spices" and finding only 3: salt, pepper and mono sodium glutamate (MSG). Can't find a link now but I'll post one if I do.

Can't find the story about the US university students anywhere, but did find two related links.
