No reason you couldn't use bread crumbs for CFS, it's called that because
it's fried like chicken and there are a whole bunch of breadings for
chicken. I make mine (when it turns out right) the traditional way, flour on
the cube (tenderized beef or some use pork) I usually pound the flour in a
bit, fry in a small amount of oil until crisp, then make a cream gravy with
lots of pepper to go with it.
