I can only remember eating KFC chicken once and that was in 1976.

Your link says 4?

Now go back and read your list homey. Look at column 3. Now, resort.

From that they are still behind McDonald's in Revenue. You didn't say highest grossing.

Either way you were wrong.

ETA: and looking at updated numbers for KFC on Yum Brands 2015 financials, they only had 16 billion in system sales which is always higher than the franchisor's revenue

I figured you were going to say that.

Now go back again and look at the years the revenue is posted.

Notice anything different?

Lifetime, 50:1, but I haven't had KFC since 2009 when the one in Hattiesburg shut down my freshman year. The only reason we ever went is because they had an all you can eat lunch buffet. Without that motivation, there is literally no reason to go there over Popeyes.

Does anyone else feel like shite after eating Canes? I remember my first few times eating it in BR during college and not having issues. Now whenever I go there and eat a 3 strip meal, I feel weak and nauseous. I can slam fast food burgers, spicy strips at Popeyes, and cheap pizza and don't feel as bad as I do after a small meal at Canes.

I've never eaten at Church's in my life. I've heard it's actually pretty good, but it just seems ghetto and is usually in the hood so it never crosses my mind. Is it more like Popeyes or KFC in taste?

It's been a long time since I've eaten Church's (1980s). At the time, I wouldn't compare it to Popeye's. It didn't have the kick in spice/flavor to Popeye's

Can't give you an honest opinion on a KFC comparison since I've ate there once when I was a kid (1970s).

you said , "KFC" isn't even 4th and proceeded to post a link showing KFC as 4th based on locations.

By revenue your same list, has McDonalds at 25 billion dollars in 2015. KFC is second at 24 billion dollars but using 2013 financials.

Nobody on the list is even in the same league next to those two despite literally no body ever eating at KFC. Which was literally the point I was trying to make. Literally.

But if you want to think Starbucks is a larger restaurant chain than KFC, I guess you win.

That 4th was a typo. I meant to type 3rd.

And KFC is way down since 2013.

They are not the biggest or largest or most profitable or highest grossing.

That's all I was getting at, that you were incorrect.

They're all average Fried Chicken chains. There's nothing special about Popeye, Canes, kfc or bojangles, etc. I eat bojangles for breakfast and Popeye everyday for lunch. Canes is like Zaxbys if Zaxbys had a college kids budget. The worst place I've ever eaten fried chicken. Bland and way overpriced. Wal-Mart sells better chicken then Canes in the freezer section.

The only things you've proven is that McDonalds and KFC dominate the fast food market. And that in 2015 McDonalds did slightly more revenue than KFC did in 2013 despite nobody literally eating at KFC. You also proved excel isn't your strong point and you are subject to typos when you get excited and think you caught someone misspeaking. Literally.
