Yep, no reason why not.

I wonder how much variation there is, world-wide?

The few times I've tried KFC in Australia over recent years - it is
bony chicken pieces with a horrible, cheap and nasty coating, deep
fried. Gag... I remember back around circa 1972, our family would buy
a bucket of KFC every week or so (for $6 no less . It was *very*
different from what we have now.

I have another reason for being somewhat biased on the issue:
I took on a job after school and weekends in a chicken abattoir, this
was in the tropics and there was no air conditionign either... the
smell was horrendous. The hygiene standards weren't great either.
Anyway, you would invariably have broken pieces of chicken fall on the
ground, it stayed there until late afternoon. Then someone would
collect them all up in crates, and into the cool room... destined for
guess where? I didn't last very long in that job, I quit after about a
month, but it took me quite some time to want to eat chicken again...
and KFC? NO THANKS!

True.
