(MAYBE) KFC'S SECRET RECIPE RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• And that's it, exactly as written, misspellings and all. According to the Tribune, when they tried the recipe with a few updated modifications to the method of cooking, it was pretty spot-on. A spokesperson from KFC issued a statement saying that there have been a lot of people who have thought they had it right, but that no one had been successful so far. Whether that's actually true or not, you'll have to judge. If you take a look at some of the knock-off recipes that have been floating around, you'll see some major discrepancies between them. This one from Food.com includes things like nutmeg, vanilla bean, cardamom, sage, and coriander, none of which show up on the "official" version. Epicurious suggests that it includes chili powder, sage and marjoram, which are also not in this new version. What does that mean for the authenticity of any of these recipes? No one knows; give them a try! You can steal KFC's recipe for your own business. So, you think you're pretty good in the kitchen and you might have this KFC thing down? Let's say you did figure out exactly what the secret KFC recipe is, and you decided that it's so amazing you want to use it in your own chicken joint. There's nothing stopping you from going into business yourself, using the same recipe that you think you've figured out by taste, texture, and repeated experimentation. Even if you're 100 percent right, there's nothing KFC would be able to do about it. When it came time for KFC to protect their top secret recipe, they could have gone one of two ways. They could have patented it, but patents have some serious drawbacks. All their ingredients, proportions, and preparations would have had to be diagrammed and public, and patents expire. Trade secrets, on the other hand, last as long as everyone can keep their mouths shut. Trade secrets are protected (the Economic Espionage Act of 1996 makes stealing one a federal crime), but different state and national laws makes the legalities of trade secrets a bit sketchy. Protecting them can be difficult, and in order to do so, specifics usually need to be put in front of an open court, defeating the entire purpose anyway. So if you think you've cracked the KFC recipe, you aren't breaking any rules or regulations if you use it. Just don't go around using their name or logos, and you can make all the cash you want off their recipe.
