: Is this a red herring or a soon-to-be fried chicken? Surely there is note enough business on the island to make a KFC viable. Surely there are too few people hungry for fried chicken much worse than the worst effort I've ever tasted on Briland. Surely Bahamian cooking and culture have not been so undermined by American dreck that this could come to pass.

: : It has been brought to my attention that a Kentucky Fried Chicken may open near Valetine's.
: : Who is the franchisee? Is this really necessary? I guess it was inevitable that fast food would hit Briland.
: : Is KFC branching out to any other out islands? Are there any other corporate behemoths standing by to invade Briland too?
: : Stay Tuned.
KFC ON BRILAND??? No way can KFC compete with
Angela´s Chicken deep fried to a crisp (without
any "Secret Ingredients")... besides, those market
research Dudes in those tailor-made suits can´t
justify a KFC on an island with only 1,700 happy
souls chowin´down on Conch Salad from Queen Conch,
Cracked Conch from SeaView TakeAway, Cheeseburgers
from Aunt Ruby´s and the goodies for consumption
from Island Deli, Avery´s, etc. etc. The Lord will
protect Briland from the GOLDEN ARCHES, too!!
