She demonstrated phony Kentucky Fried chicken, bogus Twinkies and other things I can't recall. I wrote down the Kentucky chicken one and tried it later when recovering at home. It was awful. Nothing like the original. It had weird ingredients like Italian Seasons salad dressing mix, so I should have been suspicious, but she had given samples to the audience and they SAID it was good (maybe they really didn't like it). She had a cookbook, but after trying her chicken I wouldn't be interested. Nothing beats the original! B. Walsh
