The Case of the Missing KFC : Where'd the Nashville Hot Chicken Go?

The Rise and Fall of a Spicy Legend
Tip: Break long posts into short reading sessions.
Yes, my friends, I'm talking about the legendary KFC Nashville Hot Chicken. A match made in heaven (or maybe purgatory, depending on your spice tolerance) of KFC's classic fried chicken and a fiery Nashville-style hot sauce. It was a beautiful thing, a symphony of flavor that had us all saying "hold my mashed potatoes, I'm going in!"
But then, like a magician's disappearing act, poof! The Nashville Hot Chicken vanished from the menu faster than you can say "colonel." KFC claimed it was to make way for "what customers really want." Really, KFC? Did they miss the memo about all the tears shed and taste buds left wanting more?

Some folks are crying foul (pun intended). Maybe it was a secret government plot to turn us all docile with bland chicken. Maybe it was a Big Chicken conspiracy to eliminate the competition. Or maybe, just maybe, KFC underestimated the power of a good spice trip.
Tip: Take a sip of water, then continue fresh.
