This is definitely one of those newspaper articles I remember distinctively growing up. My hometown of Hampton, Virginia went bananas when our Wal-Mart expanded into a Super Center and began offering fried chicken in the deli. I originally thought it was because it tasted good and that’s why people were flocking. Nope, just cheap food. Personally, it’s too salty for me.
