      Southern fried chicken comes from Scotland and WAfrica. And the EAsians have done heroic work in fried poultry tech. But the idea of shredding an animal with industrial machines and recombining it all with meat glue and fillers into appetizing dinosaur shapes, rolling it in breadcrumbs and frying it golden brown and crispy is 10,000% American and you can’t deny it.
