My very first job was at KFC and it is my personal opinion that more people buy chicken.
Hudsons, Kresgees and Winkleman were the Kings of Woodward Ave. back then. Under new leadership, Detroit may attract new business, I hope. I no longer live in that part of the country. I used to walk from my High School Cass Tech downtown during lunch and visit a carmel corn shop called The Nut House
.
When I was about 8, my dad was in the Philippines with the military over Christmas.
Among the presents he sent to us on the ranch were boxes of bug candy-grasshoppers and ants covered with chocolate, caramel, etc. Being un-squeamish country kids my cousins, sibling and I sampled the stuff, while my mom and aunts laughed and waited for us to get sick-and were amazed when nothing happened-might have been because we very seldom ate sweets.
The chocolate covered ants were actually tasty, and sort of crunchy-but the grasshopper caramels were not as good...
