		<title>What&#8217;s KFC or McDonald&#8217;s like in your country?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been re-organizing my photos for printing, posting and ptooi-ing and came across these photos I took while dining at KFC (formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken) in Colombo, Sri Lanka and Beijing, China.
