The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

KFC is always doing these weird "who asked for this" PR stunts. Anything but to actually improve the quality of their nasty food ig
I once decided to try their weird sandwich that had two pieces of chicken as the bun. The lady at the drive through legit said "I don't know how to make that." I drove away and forgot that KFC even existed.
Did the KFConsole ever happen?
The 11 herbs and spices are salt.
White pepper was the secret. The salt is put on by 11 guys named Herb.
Everything good about KFC has nothing to do with their actual chicken: parfaits, bowls, wedges (I don't know if parfaits are around anymore)
Any fast food place that has wedges gets a second look from me.
I fuck with potato wedges.
wings aren't terrible, but they seem expensive now, I eat them with leftover chick fil a sauce and bdubs manga habenero, hate kfc sauces, all just below mid
Sad because KFC used to be good.
Sugar and petroleum based synthetic flavorings with a 10000000000000000000000000000% mark-up. Yay!
are you alright, man? did jellybeans kill your family or something?
that scene was so well done it made my stomach hurt a bit. No joke.
It wasn't a quick way to go.
I don't think that jelly beans have much petroleum in them, but if you want to eat the raw ingredients and avoid any markup
which I'm pretty sure is a few orders of magnitude lower
I imagine that one could do so.
Stupid as this is, I'm not opposed to more Wonka-level weird flavors in jellybeans.
The grass and black pepper flavors in the Harry Potter ones kinda slapped.
i have eaten huge amounts of the buttered popcorn flavored jelly beans. they're delicious.
Those were always my favorite, too. They could make flavors for every typical Thanksgiving food and it would probably kick ass.
I'm not that rabid about them, myself, but I will concede that they're much better than I'd initially expected when hearing about them.
Original or extra crispy?
I've always wondered what happened to the fryer-skimmings that were packaged up at the end of the night and sent off to corporate. Guess they've finally stockpiled enough and it's time to put the plan into motion.
I wanna munch
They'll accompany them with vomit infused napkins
No thanks, I'll be able to provide my own
Well what the hell am I supposed to do with this vomit infuser?
Don’t tell Zaron!
Narsty
Too bad it's American garbage nonetheless, so I'll never taste it!
Enjoy your isolation, fascists/corporatists. I'm sure it will turn out great.
Bro has been wronged by jellybeans and is hurting.
