I recall my first winter in Japan being amazed by KFC and Christmas Cake, now I don’t think twice. In my time in Japan, I’ve really never gone to KFC, because everytime I go it takes a long for them to make the food, if it’s not already been fried and sitting in the bin. That said, I rather like the twisters, although it’s pretty much から揚げ wrapped. If anything, KFC’s always been big in my mind because I went to school in Osaka, thusly I love Hanshin, and here comes the urban legend of the Curse of Colonel Sanders. Ah.. love those Kansai people.

steve88, I know what you mean, and with firebans the past few Xmas, the traditional BBQ has gone and the family has resorted to Red Rooster. Heading back home this Xmas so hope the trend changes.

I agree that its not just Japan. Or Asia. My family, from down-under, decided that as it is summer for Christmas, and no-one really wants to cook, that we should have KFC for Christmas dinner. Christmas chicken from from Col. Sanders for 4-5 years. I think Grandma “put a stop to that rubbish” though.

It’s not just Japan, eh. Someone told me that the Chinese branch of KFC makes more money than the American one! No idea if that’s true or not.
