Question

Help answer this question below.

Since KFC has been brought up did you know the government made them change it from Kentucky Fried Chicken to KFC because their chickens were no longer classified as such because of all the steroids and hormones they were giving them? Read that somewhere..

    That is not true.

    Kentucky Fried Chicken decided to change its name to KFC in 1991 for several reasons, none of which had anything to do with governmental regulations about mutant animals:

    * A move to de-emphasize "chicken" because KFC planned to offer a varied menu that included other types of food.

    * A desire to eliminate the word "fried," which has negative connotations to the increasingly health-conscious consumer market.

    * A recent trend towards the abbreviation of long commercial titles, as demonstrated by other companies' employing shortened forms of their names, such as The International House of Pancakes (IHOP) and Howard Johnson's (HoJo).

    I could see it as being so.The chickens are do distorted,and chemically changed they could be barely called chickens.The same with the ,so called, burgers that McDonalds serve.They almost have no meat in them,and they are filled with hormones as well.
