    Kentucky Fried Chicken had to change their name to KFC a few years ago because they stopped using actual chickens. What they use know is a genetically cross bred chicken/salamander creature, that look,taste and eat as much as a normal chicken, but when you grap their wings they'll just fall off and then grow back a few days later. KFC now stands for Kentucky Fried Creature.
