I met him in 1973 at the Boy Scout Jamboree. I was fifteen. He was sitting in a restaurant booth right next to me and my father. I asked him for his autograph, he was incredibly gracious and kind.
When I was 11 I met him at San Francisco International Airport. He must of been charming because I remember it like it was yesterday. OMG, that's 52 years ago. 😨

@Stayathome mom actually im not racist at all , im not even from US. I don't know if he stole the recipe or not, but people used to steal all kinds of things from each other black or not. Im saying that even if he did steal the recipe, its not worth shit. I can give you coca cola recipe, what do you care about it? recipe has actually very little to do with the success of coca cola, its 100 years of hard work is why they are so big now
Markinpuff : EXACTLY: The chicken do not taste the same. The original is a DONE DEAL FOR ME -😖 Yuck. THE BISCUITS NO TASTE AND UGLY 😂. Nothing taste like back in the day.
KFC was delicious in the 1960's and 70's. Somewhere along the line, the flavor, texture, and overall quality of KFC went straight to hell. Last time I tried to eat it, several years ago, the chicken was so steroided or hormoned up, it didn't look like it came from a life form native to Earth. What a shame as it was great at one time.
@Terry Melvin Which is why they never say Chicken on commercials, unless talking about their strips, they will say all white meat, but only say chicken strips. They got into trouble because of the mutant chicken organism, is how FDA called it, why the sudden change to KFC, before it always said Kentucky Fried Chicken in front of stores.. Not sure if Pepsi still own's it or not , at one time it did along with Pizza Hut And Taco Bell..
You can still buy the secret 11 herbs and spices mixutre, online, it's called Formula 99X. The Colonel got another spice company to make his mix, before he died. Just use 99X, some peanut oil, and presuure fry your chicken, after soaking it in buttermilk, and you've got the original KFC. 🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗👍😎👌🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗***Oh yeah, it's better if use high gluten flour.👌 ***Oh don't forget to add salt to 99X, it's just the spices.
@@ravit8333 Mc McCormick Spices used to blend half of the secret 11 herbs and spices, in 1 location, while another division of Mc McCormick would blend the other half, and KFC would blend both at a 3rd location. That way nobody knew the whole recipe.
The story behind it is: after Col. Sanders sold KFC, he wasn't happy with what they did to his original recipe chicken. He had Marion-Kay Spices mix up his original recipe, and then he started recommending to franchise owners that they use the Marion-Kay Spice mix instead of the KFC corporate spice mix. Quite a few of the franchise owners did; about 200 of them during the '60s and '70s, until KFC corporate sued Marion-Kay Spices in the early '80s, just after Col. Sanders died, thus blocking them from selling their spice mix to KFC franchises. ***Taken from a Chowhound article.
@@ArmandoDy LOL! Really, and exactly what law/statute was enforced to forbid anyone from selling spices to another person in this country?? I mean, just think about it for a second...exactly what did the spice company do illegal? ...perhaps the Franchise owners could be held liable in civil court, but that is about it.
It's amazing how people can turn their dream into reality at any age in America. In where I am from, I saw many people retire at 60 and just stay at home, refusing to change, refusing to get out of the house and lying in bed all day watching TV.
@@lorddayy ...Dave worked along side him and helped build his brand. It was Dave's idea to use the Colonel's face as the logo. This was before he started Wendy's!
His story is FAR from tragic, he's a damn inspiration. The guy was the Teddy Roosevelt for fast food, and wasn't shy about letting people know how they proceeded to completely fuck his recipes up after KFC was franchised, they tried to sue him, failed, and had to pay him to shut up. Colonel Sanders was the man, and it's a damn shame I'll never get to have the TRUE original recipe. If they can make a movie about that snake Ray Kroc, they can surely do a badass Colonel Sanders movie. Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.
He really had a tough life Even when he had success through his own hard work he can't enjoy it. And he had to work and fight till his death when he really should have enjoyed his final years.
Omg you guys he/she's obviously talking about the irony here. A giant fast food chain created and still using the image of their father/grandfather but enjoying none of the success right now
I guess when Sanders sold KFC, that included all intellectual property, including his images. Guess that’s why corporate hires a new Colonel at least 5-10 times every year!
I remember eating KFC back in the late '60s and early '70s and it was FANTASTIC! I true shame that the chicken hasn't even been close to the same ever since those other people took over operations.:-(
I eatit sometimes. It's not fantastic, but better than McDonald's lol. Popeyes is good, but where I live the Popeyes is always out of the mild and always has only spicy
I remember eating at the first KFC in Lake Charles, LA circa '68 with my parents. No one had even heard of it. After I bit into that first bite, it was like I had died and gone to Heaven! Still remember that Sunday afternoon after church and my first KFC experience!
Disrespectful since Sanders would never approve of what they sell nowadays. It's a farce using a likeness of the Colonel to give the impression the quality is as good as it was originally.
Yeah but you have to remember taste improved as time went on, it's QUALITY that declined. People have told me the food used to taste very fatty, ever had food fried in pure fat rather than oil? It's nasty nasty.
I agreed with Sanders when he said "the gravy tastes like wallpaper paste" don't ask how I know what that tastes like. The video said that he said that
Daniel J Garcia: Don't be so hard on yourself, you can't be a kid without having eaten wallpaper or other paste at least once....it looks like cookie dough, and that tastes good, so why not paste?
Nice try.... BUT you forgot about that brief stint as a college professor at SCLSU where he was involved in an incident with a student by the name of Bobby Boucher!!!
He sold the company and died wealthy. I won’t cry any tears on his part. He wasn’t even really a colonel, so he could have recovered his identity by going by Harland and not wearing a white suit, for christ’s sake. He sold that cartoonish identity along with KFC.
This left out a lot of information about the Col. The main one is that he invented the machine that made his chicken cook the way it did and sold that to other restaurants across America with the help of a very energetic young salesman named Dave Thomas who went on to found the Wendy's Hamburger chain. Also, his wife Claudia had a dinner house here in Bowling Green, KY that was very successful and there is a landmark showing where it used to be. Sanders has a very interesting Success story that people should learn about. This video makes it seem he was a failure and he was anything but that.
@@georgiareb55 Yes, I believe you are correct. He invented this method for cooking his chicken with his recipe so it came out the way it did. It has been a while since I read about this and I think it was just a pressure cooker but, he sold those machines for a while.
The way I read it was it was a special design of pressure cooker that you could safely deep fry in. Apparently you shouldn't do that in just any pressure cooker. I think it has to do with the temperature and the gasket's ability to tolerate it. Not sure though.
The recipe wrnt downhill because it no longer has 11 herbs & spices then the trans fat wad replaced with vegetable oil taking the crunch out of the skin reducing the chicken to what it is now. Its typical quantity over quality. Quite honestly im happy waiting 35 minutes for good chicken but not 6 minutes for trash.
Salute and loads of reverence to the Late Colonel Sanders who has been and will be one of the greatest sources of motivation 'n' inspiration for the ones with an array of ordeals in their life, the man who is looked to during the dark times when failure rules all over n no sign of success. His face image on every packaging of the company reminds me of "keep trying" and "staying self-motivated", not being least bothered about chronological age. I love KFC just because of its founder, Mr. Colonel Sanders. May your soul rest in eternal peace!
He got $2 million ($16 million today) when he was already 73 years old and past the expected lifespan for the times. He could have negotiated for less money and more ownership but apparently the lump sum was too attractive.
Colonel Sanders and McD's brothers got overpaid. Common the chicken recipe wasn't all that great. These investors could have started a rival company instead.
For a video about Col Saunders you somehow forgot to mention the part where he moved to Canada in the late 60’s where he spent the rest of his life. He also held onto ownership of the Canadian restaurants. This is all on Wikipedia Amateurs
Colonel Sanders retired in a small town called Cooksville in Toronto Township, Ontario, Canada. In the early 1970s the township and all the small towns in it amalgamated to form a new city called Mississauga. One of those small towns was Malton, home of the Avro Arrow legendary aircraft and the Malton Airport. That airport is now known as the huge Toronto International Airport, even though it is actually located in the large City of Mississauga which is on the western border of Toronto. Nowadays, Toronto in Canada, is the fourth largest city in North America, after Mexico City, New York, and Los Angeles.
I wouldn’t call his life tragic. He came up from modest means, worked hard and became very successful. Losing his dad when he was young and his son later on are both very sad and yes, tragic events but having tragic events in one’s life does not make their life as a whole tragic. He became rich and lived to be 90. He always spoke truth regarding the direction of KFC and expressed his displeasure of certain directions they went but the guy had a good very good life. If his life is tragic then mine and most people’s lives are a complete cluster-f@$# by comparison.
Wonderful story. Totally forgot the Canadian connection. 🇨🇦 He kept his Canadian restaurants near Toronto airport in the city named Mississauga where he lived in a modest home and died. He loved his Canadian operations he would just come in at talk to people. He donated some of his money into the local hospital expansion and is referred by staff as The Chicken Wing . Colonel Harland Sanders Family Care Centre, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics for his love for children. ❤ 😢🍗🍗
Loved KFC as a kid. I get it occasionally now but it seems to be really greasy and I seem to have stomach issues now after eating. Loved the original gravy recipe.
That occurred to me, as well. You can't pass algebra, but you've got the Bar Exam, wrapped up. Well, good for the colonel. Apparently, his brains weren't Kentucky fried, after all.
Anybody reading this? I honestly believe a low budget MOVIE can and should be made in Col. Sanders honor. He was a true entrepreneur. An American legend now. Don't you all think?
Maybe it's just me but minus the 70's ... every since the 80's Era was over... not that many fast food chains ever tasted the same period. I remembered when even pizza had stringy cheese but now when you left it up... it's just crust and cheese with no strings attached lol.
I actually met Col. Sanders when I was a kid in the early '70s. They filmed a KFC commercial about 2 blocks away from house in a small public park in a small town in Missouri (population 1,000). Actually, almost everyone in town met Col. Sanders that day. The whole town turned out to watch the commercial as it was filmed. ;-)
I wouldn't call his life "tragic". He had his struggles. challenges and obstacles to overcome just like everybody else on the planet, but he was persistent . He never gave up and kept on trying. That falls under the category of a "successful" life outcome in my book. Persistence is key.
His success came with a lot of work determination and a bit of luck obtaining the american dream late in life despite the legal battles even achieving sucess.
How "tragic!" Millennials want to be able to buy a $750,000 condo in mid town, a walk from the bistros by age 28 - with that shit bachelors degree in HS business math, lol.
You didn't mention the hotel he owned that arson burned down twice. I guess the insurance didn't pay the 2nd time so he didn't rebuild. My old relatives that are now passsed lived by him in Corbiin Kentucky and said everyone thought he was involved with the fires.
countinguy they also forgot to mention the part where he moved to Canada in the late 60’s where he lived the rest of his life. He also owned the Canadian kfc locations till then
Imagine what it tasted like originally. It was SOOOOO much better when I was a kid, and even then Sanders was complaining that it was crap. Now it's absolutely inedible.
If I were a military vet I would be offended at someone like him calling himself "colonel" when he never served in the military. It's like someone getting an honorary Doctorate degree for giving a college a donation and calling themselves "Doctor" the rest of their lives.
Colonel Sanders is a great person, and he left very very Important things another eleven herbs & spices, He left the hospitality and never give up mind,

Salute and loads of reverence to the Late Colonel Sanders who has been and will be one of the greatest sources of motivation 'n' inspiration for the ones with an array of ordeals in their life, the man who is looked to during the dark times when failure rules all over n no sign of success. His face image on every packaging of the company reminds me of "keep trying" and "staying self-motivated", not being least bothered about chronological age. I love KFC just because of its founder, Mr. Colonel Sanders. May your soul rest in eternal peace!
Imagine if you ate Colonel Sanders Original Fried Chicken What an Honor
That’s what happens when you take the one time golden carrot, he should’ve stuck to his guns 50% ownership....
He got $2 million ($16 million today) when he was already 73 years old and past the expected lifespan for the times. He could have negotiated for less money and more ownership but apparently the lump sum was too attractive.
Johny Doe That wasnt the case with McDonalds though.
Colonel Sanders and McD's brothers got overpaid. Common the chicken recipe wasn't all that great. These investors could have started a rival company instead.
Colin Bunny Popeyes weeezyAnna Chickoun......
51% Ownership minimum, so he keeps the quorum of the company, never 50/50. But I agree
Look how they have masecared my boy
I've never tasted KFC in the US
But I can confirm that KFC chicken in Dubai and Philippines are two different entities
Don’t try the US kfc it’s shit
For a video about Col Saunders you somehow forgot to mention the part where he moved to Canada in the late 60’s where he spent the rest of his life. He also held onto ownership of the Canadian restaurants. This is all on Wikipedia

Colonel Sanders retired in a small town called Cooksville in Toronto Township, Ontario, Canada. In the early 1970s the township and all the small towns in it amalgamated to form a new city called Mississauga. One of those small towns was Malton, home of the Avro Arrow legendary aircraft and the Malton Airport. That airport is now known as the huge Toronto International Airport, even though it is actually located in the large City of Mississauga which is on the western border of Toronto. Nowadays, Toronto in Canada, is the fourth largest city in North America, after Mexico City, New York, and Los Angeles.
I wouldn’t call his life tragic. He came up from modest means, worked hard and became very successful. Losing his dad when he was young and his son later on are both very sad and yes, tragic events but having tragic events in one’s life does not make their life as a whole tragic. He became rich and lived to be 90. He always spoke truth regarding the direction of KFC and expressed his displeasure of certain directions they went but the guy had a good very good life.
If his life is tragic then mine and most people’s lives are a complete cluster-f@$# by comparison.
At least he became rich at 90. I will never be rich lol
This guy made a monster which will fatten kids forever
Colonel Sanders...
The best man ever
STEAM best senpai ever
@@meatloafer2762 I know right
Wonderful story. Totally forgot the Canadian connection. 🇨🇦 He kept his Canadian restaurants near Toronto airport in the city named Mississauga where he lived in a modest home and died. He loved his Canadian operations he would just come in at talk to people. He donated some of his money into the local hospital expansion and is referred by staff as The Chicken Wing . Colonel Harland Sanders Family Care Centre, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics for his love for children. ❤ 😢🍗🍗
Loved KFC as a kid. I get it occasionally now but it seems to be really greasy and I seem to have stomach issues now after eating. Loved the original gravy recipe.
I'm glad someone like him existed in this world

Better start caring about your spelling!
Sad that his own looks and his image is destroyed 😥
Man got conned in the end. So sad.
I wish to try his real recipe. Must be heaven.
Drop out of 6th grade and becoming a lawyer? How is this even possible?
You know what 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That occurred to me, as well. You can't pass algebra, but you've got the Bar Exam, wrapped up. Well, good for the colonel. Apparently, his brains weren't Kentucky fried, after all.
The Real Colonel is spinning in his grave right now !
Thank you so very much❤🙏💕
There's no way he came up with SEASONED CHICKEN.
Definitely not white people maybe everyone else. Sorry we know when shit is stolen. In 200 years I'm sure your people will say Tom Hanks invented rap
@T. Latu I'm black and I can tell you didn't pay attention in history
@@Ogun1804Ogun there are white people who seasoned they food -_-
Can't believe these retards out here arguing about seasoned chicken stupid ass mfs
Arguing about seasoned chicken and race. Only on the internet.
im 61 and i still love kentucky fried chicken and their gravy
U got quite the six pack for eatin fried chicken.
windstorm1000 and for being 61
@@Georges_IV That's probably just a pic of his favorite male porn star. 🤣
Poor you.
*Every other Colonel Sanders in the commercials exist*
Me: "So that was a fucking lie"
Lol
*sets up a new restaurant with his own name
kfc :"HEY THAT NAME IS OURS! "
I seriously thought some other stuff about this guy....I was so wrong
Anybody reading this? I honestly believe a low budget MOVIE can and should be made in Col. Sanders honor. He was a true entrepreneur. An American legend now. Don't you all think?
Bucket of chicken was the best invention!!!👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Maybe it's just me but minus the 70's ... every since the 80's Era was over... not that many fast food chains ever tasted the same period. I remembered when even pizza had stringy cheese but now when you left it up... it's just crust and cheese with no strings attached lol.
FACTS.....💯💯💯💯💯
You didn't mention the best part,he didn't give up after failing 1009 times.
You didn't mention when he shot the guy that was screwing with his sign.
Oh shit this guy goes hard
Yeah lol.
Wtf just got a KFC ad
lol
I got to meet him in 1976. Very nice man.
Nice. I'm sure he would be unhappy with the way kfc is now
This is sad. I'm sure the recipe doesn't resemble his original one at all.
HE DROPPED OUT OF HIGHSCHOOL BECAUSE OF ALGEBRA IM DYING!
I actually met Col. Sanders when I was a kid in the early '70s. They filmed a KFC commercial about 2 blocks away from house in a small public park in a small town in Missouri (population 1,000). Actually, almost everyone in town met Col. Sanders that day. The whole town turned out to watch the commercial as it was filmed. ;-)
Anyone here after the Colonel sanders dating sim??

I wouldn't call his life "tragic". He had his struggles. challenges and obstacles to overcome just like everybody else on the planet, but he was persistent . He never gave up and kept on trying. That falls under the category of a "successful" life outcome in my book. Persistence is key.
His success came with a lot of work determination and a bit of luck obtaining the american dream late in life despite the legal battles even achieving sucess.
Spot on rich eaton
How "tragic!" Millennials want to be able to buy a $750,000 condo in mid town, a walk from the bistros by age 28 - with that shit bachelors degree in HS business math, lol.
I found this when looking up staying alive
You didn't mention the hotel he owned that arson burned down twice. I guess the insurance didn't pay the 2nd time so he didn't rebuild. My old relatives that are now passsed lived by him in Corbiin Kentucky and said everyone thought he was involved with the fires.
countinguy they also forgot to mention the part where he moved to Canada in the late 60’s where he lived the rest of his life. He also owned the Canadian kfc locations till then

Old Chicken Recipe:
New Chicken Recipe: I'm going to end this chicken's whole career
Imagine what it tasted like originally. It was SOOOOO much better when I was a kid, and even then Sanders was complaining that it was crap. Now it's absolutely inedible.
Guys why doesn’t kfc have any tolet 🧻
Bc it’s finger licking good...
Roblox plays! no
I saw the Colonel in Vegas.. with a chick on each arm. The word is.. he liked 'em young.. and two at a time. He was a thigh, leg, and breast man.
Classic
Man after me own heart !
made me laugh :)
I was expecting you to be serious and realized this was a joke lol
Ur too chicken to say that to him in person i bet🤣
If I were a military vet I would be offended at someone like him calling himself "colonel" when he never served in the military. It's like someone getting an honorary Doctorate degree for giving a college a donation and calling themselves "Doctor" the rest of their lives.
What in time line we are in.. what would cornel react to KfC Dating anime game

Every one who disliked the video probably belives the angry black man video lol. Dcigs

Colonel Sanders is a great person, and he left very very
Important things another eleven herbs & spices,
He left the hospitality and never give up mind,
long live the colonel!
I was watching this while eating kfc
Respect from me Mr Sanders
Legit copyright suits against him because of his own name.
I wish I could go back in time and set up a boxing match between Colonel Sanders and Dave Thomas (Wendy's founder).
Send that idea to ERB.
Colonel Sanders was Dave Thomas's Mentor getting him started.
The MTV program Celebrity Deathmatch did that. Dave Thomas won.
