The first ever KFC

So you are probably wondering what is the big deal about KFC. For those Islanders from Saipan you know...but let me explain. The very first American fast food franchise ever to come to Saipan was.... you guessed, KFC. It was such a treat for us to go there and I was happy to get anything! I think the minimum wage when I was a little girl (5 yrs. old) was about $1.05 an hour (if that - it is currently $3.55 now). So getting to go there was special for us. There were no other American fast foods that came our way until the late 90's. So KFC has been dear to us.

Anyway, imagine my surprise to learn that the first KFC was here in Utah. We went and visited the restaurant which was a mini museum, too. I never imagined I could learn so much about the Kernal...okay, Colonel...(whoever made that spelling wasn't thinking straight). So... want another reason to visit Utah... besides, all the other places I talked about in my blog...then how about this... lunch with me at KFC (hey that rhymes! I am a poet and didn't even know it. hahahahaha).
