Sure: Kentucky Fried Chicken. It used to be The Colonol's Kentucky Fried Chicken. And it started out as Harman's Kentucky Fried Chicken, and the first franchise was in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Ah yes, we have KFC over here.
As mysterious as the secret formula for Coca-Cola are the eleven herbs and spices in KFC's famous fried chicken coating. The former Kentucky Fried Chicken has shortened its name to KFC, but the company claims the recipe has stayed the same for 40 years. According to KFC Spokesperson Jean Litterst "less than a handful of people" know their multi-million dollar recipe.Excerpted from Super Secrets Under Lock & Key.
Like Coca-Cola, KFC secures its recipe in a bank vault. This one is somewhere in Louisville, Kentucky. To ensure that spice vendors don't know the formula, the secret blend of eleven herbs and spices is mixed at two different locations and then combined elsewhere with the aid of an IBM processing system. All this technology, secrecy and security for a formula that used to be mixed by KFC's founder, Colonel Harland Sanders, on the concrete floor of his own backyard porch.
