How KFC Was Made from a Gas Station Chicken Recipe

Making the perfect fried chicken as we know it — juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside — used to be a luxury. But a man named Harland Sanders changed that after mastering his own recipe – inside a gas station.

The old man went through so much and I’m honoured to have been working there for 2 years as a cook and making the chicken he worked so hard to formulate

He started his big business at the age of 66. It's never too late folks! Respect for this businessman

He was still hustling and sleeping in his car at 63, what a lad.

This man is the definition of the word “hustle”

I love Kentucky Fried Chicken as I did growing up in the 70's which I still like the orginal recipe. I wish they still sold dinner rolls vs biscuits and wish still had baked beans too.

This man is a real man

[shabrozkhan]

What an amazing person. This is what we call true struggle and never giving attitude, truly a strong person. This motivates everyone

[coachputin]

"He found algebra too difficult" I see you are a man of culture aswell

[anton-lncd]

imagine having such a good gas station, you accidentally built motels and created a famous food chain

[AesAzax]

can we just appreciate how dedicated and humble he was?

[worstcaseontario]

This actually made me feel a little better, namely the lesson about adversity. I’m in a spot in my own life in that sense too. We see all the superficial images but it goes to show that even huge successes are touched by failure and hardship

[serijas]

Imagine Sanders in his car, crying about his worries as he munches his own KFCs.

[nivannair]

This man is a fighter. He made lots of mistakes in the past but he turn out to be one of the most inspiring human being in history.

It is sad that Kentucky Fried Chicken is gone. When they changed to to KFC they shortcutted everything from the way the Chicken was deep-fried to the way the mashed potatoes were made. I was fortunate to have worked at a Kentucky Fried Chicken in the early 80's.
