Apparently KFC’s recipe is well guarded, they use off-duty police officers and private security guards.

On top of all of this:

" For more than 20 years, the recipe has been tucked away in a filing cabinet equipped with two combination locks in company headquarters. To reach the cabinet, the keepers of the recipe would first open up a vault and unlock three locks on a door that stood in front of the cabinet. "

Whether you’ll accuse me of having too much time on my hands or simply being over-ambitious as well as foolish, I don’t know about all of you but II like challenges in life.

I am now actively recruiting 10 smart asses who excel in the following fields to aid me on my mission to ’steal’ the KFC recipe.

1) an I.T wizard hacker kid living a life on forged identities with access to major govt mainframe computers as well as knowledge of jamming/hacking/disrupting security cameras.

2) a 5 foot 2 inch, 60-90 lb gymnastic (the shorter and lighter the better)

3) A senior citizen with good acting skills (i’ll need you to pass yourself off as a descendant of the Saudi Royal family…)

4) The best street-pocket/thiefing twat in England, Ireland or Scotland.

5) A femme fatale – a seductress who always gets her way with men, if ‘big t!ts, a pretty face and no brains’ is what you’re all about girls – send me your resumes asap.

6) An Animal Rights activist – just be ready @ any moment, we’ll need you. The chickens need you. Do it for the chickens.

7) an ex-CIA operative with forged documents and access to the best ‘get-a-way’ drivers in the united states.

A compton crip gang member – I just know I can rely on you if it has to come down to some f@#ked up sh!t. right ?

9) An ex professional wrestler – sleeper holds baby, sleeper holds.

10) A diehard KFC fan – You wake up each morning with fried chicken wings and potatoe wedges on your mind. KFC rocks. KFC is the reason you haven’t commited suicide. KFC IS your life.

11) and finally, the mastermind behind it all, the coordinator the brainbank the think thank the daddy of the whole ploy, ME.

IF you feel you fulfil any of the 11 positions, or have the abilities I seek – please let me know by answering the question heh.
so which number are you ? let me know if you qualify as any of the above and i’ll consider your application.
fo reeeal dawg.

awesome!

excellent thats that taken care of, ok folks hurry – i need to recruit you all by 6am 10th sept 08.

Sounds like fun, but wouldn’t it be easier to bribe someone who works in the back to send you some of the breading mix and take it to a lab? That’s what William Poundstone did. IIRC the results were rather disappointing — there may be 11 herbs and spices in the formula, but whatever they’re putting out there now doesn’t use them. It’s mostly salt, pepper, and msg.

i’m in a grilled cheese cooking contest tomorrow, and i need a secret ingredient to put my recipe over the top. any tips would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
great answers so far! i’m going to try a few of your suggestions, and best answer goes to the suggestion that turned out the best

Havarti and sliced tomatoes in the sandwich. Use a garlic mayonaise (aoli sauce) on the outside of the bread (instead of oil or butter) and grill. Should produce an awesome sandwich!!

A tip just n time for those Thanksgiving pies! Granny Adams made such beautiful pies! One day, I asked her, “How do you get such beautiful pies with the crimps around the edge so even?”

“Well, it’s a family secret,” she said. “But if you promise not to tell, I’ll let you in on it.”
“Okay,” I said. “Tell me!”

“Well, first, I roll out the dough, making sure it is flat and even. Then I cut out the bottom layer and carefully put it in the pie plate and make sure it is firmly against the sides of the plate.”

“Then I slowly pour in the filling, making sure it’s not too full. Next, I cut out the top layer and carefully put it over the filling.”

“Finally, I take out my teeth and just run them around the edge of the pie crust and they make the nicest, even impressions you ever did see!”

I LOVE this joke. Very Funny!!

Here is another for you.

Got a letter from Grandma the other day. She writes… The other day I went up to a local Christian bookstore and saw a "Honk If You Love Jesus " bumper sticker. I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting; so I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.

Boy, I’m glad I did! What an uplifting experience that followed! I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection just lost in thought about the Lord and how good He is…and I didn’t notice that the light had changed. It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn’t honked, I’d never have noticed!

I found that LOTS of people love Jesus Why, while I was sitting there, the guy behind me started honking like crazy, and then he leaned out of his window and screamed, "For the love of GOD! GO! GO!JESUS CHRIST, GO!"

What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus! Everyone started honking! I just leaned out of my window and started waving and smiling at all these loving people. I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!

There must have been a man from Florida back there because I heard him yelling something about a "sunny beach"… I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air. When I asked my teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant, he said that it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.

Well, I’ve never met anyone from Hawaii; so I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign back. My grandson burst out laughing…why even he was enjoying this religious experience!

A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that they got out of their cars and started walking towards me. I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is when I noticed the light had changed. So, I waved to all my sisters and brothers, grinning, and drove on through the intersection.

I noticed I was the only car that got through the intersection before the light changed again and I felt kind of sad that I had to leave them after all the love we had shared; so I slowed the car down, leaned out the windowand gave them all the Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away.

Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks!

What is your turkey secret when it comes to what you put on top of it or otherwise known as your turkey rub? What is your secret stuffing recipe ..now that we are sharing your secret??? How about your sweet potato pie??? Thanks in advance and i will let you know how all this comes out…Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Rub cooking oil inside a big paper bag. Make sure the entire inside surface is covered in oil, place the turkey in the bag and tie the end closed. Bake the turkey the amount of time that is recommended. The oil in the bag bastes the turkey and it comes out brown and moist. If you miss a spot on the bag with oil, that part of the bag will catch fire, so be careful. I works really well.

I am a useless yorkshire pudding cook.

They almost always come out like either ‘Frisbees’ or ‘dumplings’.
I want them to rise like ‘top hats’ and be as ‘light as feathers’.
