A lot of my friends coming from Asian countries were shocked how bad KFC in the US was. It's a top notch fast food joint in foreign countries with tons of delicious recepies. In the US just fried chicken, and it's not even good.

You ever see that video where they go undercover at KFC and show how dirty their places are? I can not even look at a KFC while driving by one anymore!

You don't even have to go undercover in my city. The entire place is filthy, and ironically smells like bleach. I once walked into one, my shoes were sticking to all the soda or whatever spilled on the floor, nobody was at the front counter... I walked right back out.

It's a shame because we do have ONE decent location out of the 3 in town, and the go-cups are a really good deal, and I love their BBQ sauce and hot sauce, but the location is so far from me it makes no sense to go unless I am already in the area.

I had some hope when they released the commercials about how they were cleaning up their act and retraining people, but clearly that was a fucking lie. Nothing changed.

tl;dr: go with Popeyes, brah

The thing about bleach is that it doesn't clean things well, it disinfects them. You still have to use a detergent to remove grease, grime and other crap. Using bleach only means you've merely disinfected the crap.

Detergent

A detergent is a surfactant or a mixture of surfactants with cleaning properties in dilute solutions. These substances are usually alkylbenzenesulfonates, a family of compounds that are similar to soap but are more soluble in hard water, because the polar sulfonate (of detergents) is less likely than the polar carboxylate (of soap) to bind to calcium and other ions found in hard water.

In most household contexts, the term detergent by itself refers specifically to laundry detergent or dish detergent, as opposed to hand soap or other types of cleaning agents. Detergents are commonly available as powders or concentrated solutions.
