KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) is a world-renowned fast-food chain specializing in crispy, flavorful fried chicken. Founded by Colonel Harland Sanders in the 1930s in Corbin, Kentucky, KFC revolutionized the fast-food industry by popularizing fried chicken as a convenient, delicious alternative to burgers. The brand’s secret blend of 11 herbs and spices remains one of the most iconic recipes in culinary history. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, KFC operates over 30,000 locations across 150 countries, making it the second-largest restaurant chain globally after McDonald’s. Now a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, KFC continues to innovate while staying true to its rich heritage, offering crispy, juicy chicken that generations have come to love.
