“1. KFC Chicken

Doesn’t everyone like fried chicken? This stereotype dates back to slave days when chicken was an easy dish to serve them.’

They had slave days in Australia? I didn’t think so. But after a little googling...

“In 1901, under pressure from the British anti-slavery movement, the newly formed Australian government banned slavery and ordered islanders to be repatriated. But some ship captains took their human cargoes well offshore and threw them overboard.”

So Australia have slavery until as late as 1901. Learned something new today.
