Growing up in Japan, KFC and Japanese Christmas cake is definitely a tradition for Christmas. The reason why fried chicken is a tradition goes back to when KFC was trying to bring a comfort food to the foreigners there, like a thanksgiving meal....and it just caught on...
@Krillin19933 жыл бұрын
The special thing with KFC during Christmas is that they get a whole Chicken or even a whole Turkey during christmas when you preorder it, plus they get a whole chocolate cake and a little gift during Christmas time at KFC Japan.

I agree. The fries at Japan's KFC are soggy, and the chicken isn't crunchy like in the West. But because they don't sell turkey here at Xmas I also buy KFC for Xmas. I think stores started selling KFC for Xmas as a marketing thing, similar to how chocolate stores in Japan sell chocolate on Valentine's day and white day (white chocolate day 3/14).

A bit of trivia per WIkipedia: in 1970, the manager of the first KFC in Japan (Takeshi Okawara) marketed fried chicken "party barrels" as a Christmas meal intended to serve as a substitute for the US turkey dinner (and a way to celebrate Christmas in Japan, since turkey isn't as easy to get in Japan as it is in the USA). In 1974 it went nationwide in Japan as "Kentucky Christmas"/"Kentucky for Christmas" and has since been a widely practiced Japanese custom (and every Christmas Eve, Christmas sales are 5% of annual KFC Japan revenue).

KFC for X-mas dinner was a marketing ploy started in the 70's and just stuck, the same with X-mas cake (Strawberry shortcake). X-mas is a night for couples and date night in Japan. I only go to KFC when they have a deal. On the menu, they were promoting half price nuggets but the nuggets aren't that good.
