Wow, Western fast food finally hits Armenia! FYI, you have to pay for ketchup in most KFC’s in Europe.

I wonder what the Colonel’s secret recipe is in Armenia? Do they have chicken feet on the menu over there? Something also tells me they don’t honor the new “0″ trans fat recipes that are supposedly used here in the USA. I suggest they do the “take a number” method for serving. Then you don’t have to worry about standing in a line since they don’t seem to understand that you don’t cut into line. Enjoy — the ketchup is worth the splurge for the fries.

Pay per ketchup packet? That’s my biggest nightmare. Also I should have known that fast food in Armenia would automatically devolve into push to the front antics. They need to use those cattle-call partitions which attempt to keep people in line, except make the walking space between them super thin to the point it’s impossible to push ahead. This would be a problem in America thanks to obesity, but from my experience absolutely no one in Armenia is fat so no worries there. I’m glad the KFC is setting a good example with it’s cleanliness habits. This is the first western fast food chain to make it to Armenia, is it not? I know there’s been rumors of a Toumanian McDonald’s for literally centuries but don’t think that has come true. It’s only a matter of time now though, which makes me kind of sad because I rather liked Armenia’s isolation from that kind of thing.
