Colonel Harland Sanders debuted Kentucky Fried Chicken's secret Original Recipe of 11 herbs and spices back in 1940. Only a select few know the exact formula, however most Americans are well aware that "he puts an addictive chemical in his chicken that makes you crave it fortnightly, smart ass!”

On Tuesday, an 8-foot-tall by 9-foot-wide bucket of fried chicken was served up to the citizens of Louisville to celebrate the Original Recipe's 70th anniversary. Exactly 2,493.35 pounds of KFC was passed out to visitors, setting the world record for the largest serving of fried chicken ever. The "ambassador for the World Chicken Festival"—a Colonel Sanders look-alike—was also in attendance.
