Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) is a household fast‑food restaurant brand. It founded in 1930 by Colonel Harland Sanders in Corbin, Kentucky. From his roadside kitchen emerged the iconic Original Recipe—a secret blend of 11 herbs and spices pressure‑fried to juicy perfection. Today, KFC operates over 30,000 restaurants across more than 145 countries, serving up crave‑worthy meals like its famous buckets, sandwiches, & tenders.
