Ever wonder what spices are in KFC? Are they all asbestos?

Answer 1

some of it asbestos, some of it is gnomes, but the important thing to know is that very little of it is tornados.

i have started a campaign to save the tornadoes.

Answer 2

I heard it was just a packet of some salad dressing, like Hidden Valley or something.

Here are links to some copycat recipes:

paprika
garlic salt
onion salt
oregano
sage
rosemary
thyme
parsley
salt
black pepper
ginger

- work out your own quantities - approx. equal proportions - you can add some brown sugar too - the sweetness brings out the spices and flavour.
Make a seasoned flour using above - using approx. 1 teaspoon of each spice to approx. 3 cups flour and 3 tablespoons brown sugar.
Dip chicken in beaten egg and dip into seasoned flour, and then deep fry. Enjoy your KFC!!!
