English tutor Alice here. Did you know the state I live in is the birth place of Kentucky Fried Chicken? It is! KFC originated in Corbin, Kentucky, when Colonel Harland Sanders began serving his signature fried chicken to travelers at his roadside service station in the 1930s. Sanders finalized his secret Original Recipe of 11 herbs and spices there in 1940, and the first official franchise later opened in South Salt Lake, Utah, in 1952. Tell me something neat about the country that you live in!
