For John, BLUF: I think it is nice. Nothing to see here; just move along.
The sub-headline:
How a fast-food marketing campaign turned into a widespread Yuletide tradition for millions.
From The Beeb and Reporter By Eric Barton, 19 December 2016.
Here is the lede plus one:
Every Christmas, Ryohei Ando gathers his family together for a holiday tradition. Just like their father did as a child, his two children will reach deep into a red-and-white bucket and pick out the best piece of fried chicken they can find.Hat tip to the InstaPundit.Yes, it’s a Merry KFC Christmas for the Ando family. It may seem odd anywhere outside Japan, but Ando’s family and millions of others would never let a Christmas go by without Kentucky Fried Chicken. Every Christmas season an estimated 3.6 million Japanese families treat themselves to fried chicken from the American fast-food chain, in what has become a nationwide tradition.
