I actually prefer Publix deli fried chicken over KFC. But my grandmother's recipe for the homemade stuff is the best!

well, all I can think about is fried chicken and how good it would be to have some. I keep meaning to get some KFC but I keep forgetting to as well... maybe for lunch... This past weekend I did make some VERY good baked barbeque chicken.

I haven't received the X hex yet, I'd say he sent it via courier pigeon, but that would be putting a poor bird to work. I do find it interesting that the PETA thread has turned into the fried chicken recipe thread. LOL

You remind me more of Sneezy.
Anyhoo, don't the local (smaller) chicken places have better chicken than KFC? I think so.

I haven't received the X hex yet, I'd say he sent it via courier pigeon, but that would be putting a poor bird to work. I do find it interesting that the PETA thread has turned into the fried chicken recipe thread. LOL The hex I created and send your way relates to body weight, specifically metabolism. Soon, none of the animals or animal products that you eat will turn into energy, only fat. Now, fat doesn’t sustain life, at least life as you know it. Therefore, it’s a biochemical hex. I would caution you to secure the best health insurance that you can afford, even without the hex, given all the animal body parts and products that you ingest, health insurance is important to maintain as the side effects of your diet will bring on all sorts of horrors. The hex will speed up that process. Besides, the hex is working - now you are posting LOL at your own posts!

So that would pretty much be the opposite of what the gypsy did in Thinner? Cool.

"There's no reason to drink cow's milk at any time in your life. It was designed for calves, not humans, and we should all stop drinking it today."
-Dr. Frank A. Oski Former Director of Pediatrics, Johns Hopkins University
Some food for thought:
Corporate-owned factories where cows are warehoused in huge sheds and treated like milk machines have replaced most small family farms. With genetic manipulation and intensive production technologies, it is common for modern dairy cows to produce 100 pounds of milk a day -- 10 times more than they would produce in nature. To keep milk production as high as possible, farmers artificially inseminate cows every year. Growth hormones and unnatural milking schedules cause dairy cows' udders to become painful and so heavy that they sometimes drag on the ground, resulting in frequent infections and overuse of antibiotics. Cows - like all mammals - make milk to feed their own babies - not humans.
Male calves, the "byproducts" of the dairy industry, endure 14 to17 weeks of torment in veal crates so small that they can't even turn around. Female calves often replace their old, worn-out mothers, or are slaughtered soon after birth for the rennet in their stomachs (an ingredient of most commercial cheeses). They are often kept in tiny crates or tethered in stalls for the first few months of their lives, only to grow up to become "milk machines" like their mothers.
ENVIRONMENT: Cow's milk is an inefficient food source. Cows, like humans, expend the majority of their food intake simply leading their lives. It takes a great deal of grain and other foodstuffs cycled through cows to produce a small amount of milk. And not only is milk a waste of energy and water, the production of milk is also a disastrous source of water pollution. A dairy cow produces 120 pounds of waste every day -- equal to that of two dozen people, but with no toilets, sewers, or treatment plants.
In Lancaster County, Pa., manure from dairy cows is destroying the Chesapeake Bay, and in California, which produces one-fifth of the country's total supply of milk, the manure from dairy farms has poisoned vast expanses of underground water, rivers, and streams. In the Central Valley of California, the cows produce as much excrement as a city of 21 million people, and even a smallish farm of 200 cows will produce as much nitrogen as in the sewage from a community of 5,000 to 10,000 people, according to a U.S. Senate report on animal waste.
FOR YOUR HEALTH: Dairy products are a health hazard. They contain no fiber or complex carbohydrates and are laden with saturated fat and cholesterol. They are contaminated with cow's blood and pus and are frequently contaminated with pesticides, hormones, and antibiotics. Dairy products are linked to allergies, constipation, obesity, heart disease, cancer, and other diseases.
The late Dr. Benjamin Spock, America's leading authority on child care, spoke out against feeding cow's milk to children, saying it can cause anemia, allergies, and insulin-dependent diabetes and in the long term, will set kids up for obesity and heart disease, America's number one cause of death.
And dairy products may actually cause osteoporosis, not prevent it, since their high-protein content leaches calcium from the body. Population studies, backed up by a groundbreaking Harvard study of more than 75,000 nurses, suggest that drinking milk can actually cause osteoporosis.
Yes, there are points of view on the other side of all these issues, but why take the chance and why have all the suffering and cruelty to animals go on every day in your name, you are directly responsible.

Wow, not only do I get a hex, I get a geeky biochemical hex. I feel so special!
I'm so sorry that I haven't been accepted by the cool PETA pet killers, I might have to cry in front of my big screen tonight.

Raise your hand if you were raised on drinking COW'S milk (you could have drunk the milk from your mother's udders too) while growing up. Now put that same hand down if you have any current milk related issues because you were raised on that milk... (being lactose doesn't count)
EDIT:sorry for uDDering the wrong word (meant to spell <-- that one wrong)
