"If your dinner plate often includes fried chicken, gravy-smothered liver, buttered rolls and sweet tea — your heart may not find it so tasty..."

"In a large-scale study that explored the relationship between dietary patterns and heart disease risk, researchers found that people who regularly ate traditional Southern fare — which they characterized as fried foods, fatty foods, eggs, processed meats, such as bacon and ham, organ meats like liver, and sugary drinks — were at a higher risk for suffering a heart attack or heart-related death during the next 5.8 years. Previous research also links the Southern diet with increased stroke risk."

Or was it the gravy and rolls instead of the chicken and butter?

This has been one of the problems with these kinds of studies. They don't really single out anything and are used to confirm the biases of the authors.

Without question!

Grocery store chicken is bad news, not because of fats, but because of the drugs that it is saturated with.
