KFC for Christmas dinner

I love this idea especially after being responsible for Christmas dinner for my family and Jim's family for many years. Our mothers were worn out by making many Christmas dinners over the years so I volunteered.

From Nice News "KFC" for dinner in Japan Christmas is the busiest time of year for KFC in Japan, as, per tradition, many families get their holiday dinner from the restaurant. The tradition started around 1974, but there are a couple theories within the company about how it began. One is that a store manager dressed up as Santa Claus and delivered chicken to a Japanese school. The kids enjoyed it, so he launched an advertising campaign. Another is that Japanese people began buying KFC during the holidays because turkeys weren't easily available. Though, neither of the theories has been confirmed, KFC Japan said. Merry White, a food anthropologist and professor at Boston University, lived in Japan in the 1960s, when there was no KFC. KFC Japan was founded in 1970, and for many years was seen as more of a date night spot. A recession in Japan made people turn to the restaurant as a way to feed their families, White said."
