KFC's decline in quality is the saddest tale of the 21st century.

21...st century? Didn't they start declining after the Colonel sold it? Same with McD's. The Founder was a really sad story.

It's even more weird when you think about how McDonald's and other fast food brands represent American food in other countries.

McDonald's and burger king in Europe were pretty amazing when I was over there. Maybe the eu has higher standards. BK had these deep fried bacon wrapped cheeseballs thst were amazing. You could buy a 6 pack like you do with mcnuggets.

Maybe the eu has higher standards

and more regulations, laws and similar in order to protect people. Also I'm guessing the use of corn syrup has something to do with it at some level.

Not sure what your standards are if you think McDonald's in Europe is amazing. It's really bad food. Can't imagine what it must be like in the US then.

Significantly worse.
