    looks like it's legit

      Yeah. It's a thing all right. I think too because Christmas Day is a regular work day in Japan, not a holiday, so no-one wants to cook after a long day at work on Christmas. Hence all the chicken and pizza responses...

    lmao i cannot imagine how many weebs hated KFC making fun of "Americans" for eating it until they found out it is Japanese culture lol...

    With gravy, the chicken can be smothered with some soulful goodness! Also a good countermeasure for Cartmans naked chicken lol 🐔

      You raise a good point! And come to think of it, I don't recall ever seeing gravy being sold at KFC in Japan. 🤷‍♂️ I love the stuff! Goes well with the chips too!

      @SpikeSetsFire No gravy, that's messed up. What about curry? Could probably pass for gravy tbh.

    Haha I heard about this too. So weird. But kinda smart to make dinner easy when there's so much stress with other stuff.
    Last time I had KFC here in Sweden it was cold and kinda bad. Also didn't get what I ordered. If I was in Japan I would just buy Karage however :D

      Haha. That's true! My only complaint about KFC in Japan is that they don't have chicken salt (or any salt, for that matter) on their chips!!

    fyi
    the KFC meme was basically a marketing stunt by the former head of marketing
    it was advertised as a "typical American Christmas dinner"
    he since apologized and regrets it
