He was given the title by then-Governor Ruby Lafoon alongside 5000 other people in 1937. Governor Lawrence Wetherby later re-commissioned the colonel, and this was also around the time when the famous goatee, white suit, and string tie were donned.\n<p class='\"list\"'>The first bucket meal, a very popular KFC option, was sold in 1957, which\u2019s over 15 years after the start of Sander\u2019s chicken empire. It wasn\u2019t even sold by Sanders himself, but by his first franchisee Pete Harman, the Salt Lake-based franchise under the name Kentucky Fried Chicken sold a 14-piece chicken meal with five bread rolls and a pint of gravy.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>American guitarist Buckethead, famed for his work with Guns \u2018n\u2019 Roses, wore a KFC bucket on his head during performances with an orange label with the word \u2018funeral\u2019 written across it.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>KFC, after being the first western fast-food franchise to hit <a href="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/www.factstoryhub.com%5C/china-facts%5C/%5C%22">China in 1987, is now enormous across the country with 4563 outlets. Each Chinese store averages a 50-item menu with some well-known chicken dishes and some lesser-known local dishes like tree-fungi salad.\n<p class='\"list\"'>Colonel Harland Sanders died on <a href="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/www.factstoryhub.com%5C/day%5C/december-16%5C/%5C%22">December 16, 1980. Governor of Kentucky, John Brown Jr, honored the colonel by having every State building\u2019s flag flown at half-mast for 4 days.\n<p class='\"list\"'>Pete Harman, a friend of Sanders and the previously mentioned first franchisee, was the first to use the phrase \u201cKentucky Fried Chicken\u201d in his restaurant. The catchphrase wasn\u2019t his idea, though; it was coined by the sign painter Harman had hired.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>Sanders disliked the idea of deep-frying his chicken, he chose to pan-fry it, but this took too long to be viable. The pressure cooker changed this; even with the risk of explosion due to the poor design, Sanders adopted it as the sole method for cooking his chicken, saying it resembled the taste pan-frying gave.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>Sanders sold his company for $2 million to investors in 1964, who guaranteed him a place on the board as a quality controller, a lifetime salary, and appearances in commercials.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>The Japanese people love KFC.

An estimated 3.6 million households had KFC during Christmas 2015.\n<p class='\"list\"'>The original recipe, according to KFC itself, was created in 1940.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>In 1976 the colonel was ranked as the second most recognizable celebrity by a survey.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>In 2006, in the Area-51 desert, KFC made an 87500 square foot logo that\u2019s apparently visible from space following a new global re-image.\n</p><p class='\"list\"'>KFC has had some problems with its catchphrases.
