Fried chicken. Yes, fried chicken. Not just any fried chicken, but Church’s sloppy,
juicy thighs.
Why? Why ask why?
I know I shouldn’t eat it. I haven’t had any in years. But today ... today is the day.
I can taste euphoria! Oh, licking the grease from my fingers. Gotta have me some!
You know, some people say we’re predisposed to fried chicken and watermelon. I don’t
know ... But, I can tell you this--Church’s fried chicken heals every ill in my body.
It puts a smile on my face. ;0) I’ve heard some argue that it contains contraceptives!
Designed to keep our numbers down. I guess I didn’t eat enough. I had 2 kids in 18
months. You know what? I think it’s supposed to affect male reproduction. Oh yeah. I
think that’s it. BLACK male reproduction. Well, since I’m a Black female and my husband’s
a White male, it didn’t work for us. I think it makes us horny!
Oh my God, what if it makes Black women horny? Well, it defeats its purpose!
Maybe, that's why I like Church’s so much. Maybe, that’s why I craaaaaave it when I feel
down. Maybe, Church’s chicken is the Viagra for Black women, just like chicken soup is
the Jewish penicillin. Maybe, that’s why chickens aren’t considered unclean. Maybe,
they possess magical power. Maybe ... the chicken is the animal that tried to
PREVENT Adam and Eve from eating from the tree.
Poor Chicken! But he was rewarded. He was to be craved by man: to sooth his every ill and increase his
woman’s drive. Men are from Mars. Women are from Venus. And chickens ... chickens ... well ...
they’re from God.
