Would certainly make sense when you consider nearly every other eatery out there delivers.
Plus they are the nicest fast food, when compared to the likes of McD, Burger King etc.

Hi,
I presume most of you know why KFC have to call themselves KFC now, rather than Kentucky Fried Chicken...
If you don't, you may want to take a look at this... Since 2003, animal rights and welfare organizations, led by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), have been protesting KFC’s treatment of the animals used for its products. These groups claim that the recommendations of the KFC Animal Welfare Advisory Council have been ignored. Adele Douglass, a former member of the council, said in an SEC filing reported on by the Chicago Times, that KFC "never had any meetings. They never asked any advice, and then they touted to the press that they had this animal-welfare advisory committee. I felt like I was being used."
KFC's responded by saying the chickens used in its products are bought from suppliers like Perdue Farms, Tyson Foods, and Pilgrim's Pride, and that these suppliers are routinely monitored for animal welfare violations. Several PETA undercover investigations and videos of these and other KFC suppliers purport to show chickens being beaten, ripped apart and thrown against walls which contradict KFC’s claims. There have been more than 12,000 demonstrations at KFC outlets since 2003 because of this alleged mistreatment of chickens by KFC suppliers.
KFC's rebranding from Kentucky Fried Chicken include the notion that KFC had been prevented from declaring their products to be made from chicken due to using genetically modified animals without feathers, beaks, or feet, which were easier to harvest. This issue is still ongoing! Fans of KFC may also wish to note the fact that KFC rarely use the word "chicken" in any of their advertising or product names, because of the same issue mentioned previously.
And you say you want this... stuff... delivered to your door?!
Pooch

KFC is just nasty fatty chicken.. but somehow you sometimes can't stop yourself wanting some despite knowing you'll think the fat under the skin is disgusting.

Pooch | I think most people believe this urban legend.
However the following site is worth a look at not just for the KFC myth, but for many others as well. http://www.snopes.com/horrors/food/kfc.asp
