My mom met him in person while working in a snack bar in a local department store. He was fascinated by the fountain drink dispenser they were using.

The History Channel ran the series about the history of several big food names, including the start of KFC. Heinz, Hershey, Nestlé and Bird's Eye were some of the others. Very cut throat industry they started out being. If you get a chance to see, it's worth your time. Sorry I don't remember the correct title of it.

Dirty Dingus McGee, Harland was never in the military! my dad was friends with him when he made food for weary travelers.

Sherry Berry, They did away with our buffet and as far as I'm concerned ruined our KFC.

He was on "What's My Line." You can find out on Youtube. Col. Sanders was a true southern gentleman.

Guillermo, I never heard about that. I thought he completely retired after the sell. Too bad Kentucky is a few thousand miles from me. Would love to try the food

Player#MaBe, I recall that he helped a friend who started Wendy's restaurant. Taught him to simplify his menu and he was of course a success.

I still don't know what those 11 "Secret" ingredients are... I had the opportunity to stop by the First Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant. It's like a small museum... Kool...
