A lot of people do. I don't much like it. I do like Original quite a bit.

You're most welcome, Pandora.
Personally, I think all of the chicken at KFC is disgusting. But, then, I've always had real southern fried chicken at home. There's absolutely no comparison.
I just wanted to ask what was the difference! Only pressure fryer?
Yes, that's the main difference. Although, I don't much like the coating they use either.

I have to agree. I never buy the stuff. I remember eating it occasionally when friends would bring a bucket over, but never could eat more than about one piece. I used to joke KFC was good for motorcycles. I imagined wiring a chicken leg to the frame just above the rear drive chain, the dripping grease keeping the chain well lubed. My brother came up with a good approach to eating KFC. Take the meat off the bone and stick it between one of the biscuits to soak up the excess grease, then dose with black pepper and a good Louisiana hot sauce.

LOL! I can picture it!

I don't know. It's my understanding deep fryer fat is a waste product that's a real pain for any restaurant using it. I think they have to pay for its disposal. I could be wrong on this.

You're correct about this. There are companies that specialize in this.

Excuse me the English question. Why, sometimes, do you write "fried" and why do you write sometimes "fryer" when there is a consonant before the "Y"? Sorry if I would like to understand 🙂 cheers Pandora --------------------------------------------------------
The word "fried" is an adjective that is used to describe a noun, such as "chicken". The word "fryer" is a noun that is the name of a piece of equipment, such as "deep fryer".

Ahhhhh! Thank you Wayne! Now I understand ! Fryer is a substantive, OK! But...now that I think...why a substantive has different grammatichal rules in comparison with an adjective? Cheers Pandora

I suppose you've seen the TV stories about the guys traveling across the US with just used-grease from the fast food place(s) for their vehicle. I don't know if they get their free grease exclusively from one fast-food restaurant or not. Dee Dee
Google on bio-diesel for more information.

Those TV stories have the accuracy of most TV stories. I like the way they describe someone driving up to the fast food place and simply filling up with waste fryer oil as if they pulled into a filling station. The reality is that there is considerable processing involved to remove undesirable stuff before the oil can be used in a diesel engine.

A chicken itself, can be called a "fryer," too. http://www.onelook.com/?w=fryer&ls=a Quick defintion: noun: flesh of a medium-sized young chicken suitable for frying

The TV story I saw did show the processing involved. Dee Dee

I've read some stuff about it. Most of the time people go through a processing step to make bio-diesel fuel. However, some guys say that once the car's up and running at temp they can switch to burning unprocessed oil (I'm sure they filter it) directly.
