PETA is boycotting KFC for their treatment of chickens. Now, my first response was 'What? They weren't already boycotting them?" So I read the first couple paragraphs, looked at the pictures, read the captions, and was reminded of something I did in College.
One of the 3.4 million pizza joints in Bowling Green had an excellent Chicken pizza. This was before it was something you could get at any chain store. It was a delicacy of sorts. So we were having a party of some sort and needed grub. I call Myles' to order a Chicken pizza. And I ask the guy:
"What kind of chickens do you use? Are they Free Range?"
He pauses for a few moments, the hamster wheel in his head squeaking loudly, then shouts to the back of the kitchen: "Hey Tom, do we use Free Range chickens?"
And I can hear Tom reply: "No, they're frozen."
Granted, I'd had a few beers by then. But that was pretty damn funny at the time. And I still chuckle whenever the issue of Chicken Treatment is raised.
