KFC secret chicken recipe gets tighter security

The famous KFC Original Recipe is moved to safer vault.

WiredPRNews.com – The top secret recipe developed in 1940 by Kentucky Fried Chicken’s (KFC) Colonel Sanders has gotten an upgrade in security. As reported by the Associated Press (AP), the handwritten chicken recipe was moved back to Kentucky on Tuesday after being placed in an undisclosed location for months while waiting to be taken to a new secure vault.

Roger Eaten, KFC president, is quoted as stating of the time the paper spent away from its decades long vault confinement, “It was very nerve wracking… I don’t want to be the only president who’s lost the recipe.”

The recipe is for the coating of the company’s famous Original Recipe chicken, which contains 11 herbs and spices. As noted in the AP report, the formula is kept confidential, with only two executives at a time being granted access to it.

KFC has over 5,000 locations in the US and well over 15,000 locations across the globe.
