Great.
Can we have an argument about whether fast food causes obesity and should not be encouraged or whether people should themselves decide whether they are going to be a burden on a country's health services through sheer gluttony?

I really appreciate the level of motivation our mods show lately, but KFC coming to CH is news, not something to add on to 17 pages of drivel on KFC runs...

You're better off moderating your intake of high calorific foods because you can't out-exercise a bad diet.

Is the doughnut place still open in Basel? KFC will open, everyone will be excited, EF and newspapers will be full of photos of stupid people queueing up to buy a bucket of chicken, and then within a few months it'll just be full of spotty, unfit looking, smoking Swiss youth. Like BK and McDonalds.

I will take them there though if one opens nearby. Food experiences should cover all bases.

My problem is that I prefer Carl's jr over KFC...
