KFC / Kentucky Fried Chicken / No shortcuts[edit]

There are some rumors that Kentucky Fried Chicken went to "KFC" because "Fried" was developing negative connotations, and also because the State of Kentucky was hitting KFC for royalties for using its name; further that the name "Kentucky" originally spoke to "Southern Hospitality".

So, more recently, they went back from "KFC" to "Kentucky Fried Chicken". There's various references to this around the internet, but nothing in this Wikipedia article as far as I can tell.

I write this for the note of anyone who can be bothered to take an interest in the main article. JohnAugust (talk) 01:10, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
