http://www.bbc.com/capital/story/20161216-why-japan-celebrates-christmas-with-kfc
>According to KFC Japan spokeswoman Motoichi Nakatani, it started thanks to Takeshi Okawara, the manager of the first KFC in the country. Shortly after it opened in 1970, Okawara woke up at midnight and jotted down an idea that came to him in a dream: a “party barrel” to be sold on Christmas.
>Okawara dreamed up the idea after overhearing a couple of foreigners in his store talk about how they missed having turkey for Christmas, according to Nakatani. Okawara hoped a Christmas dinner of fried chicken could be a fine substitute, and so he began marketing his Party Barrel as a way to celebrate the holiday.
>In 1974, KFC took the marketing plan national, calling it Kurisumasu ni wa Kentakkii, or Kentucky for Christmas. It took off quickly, and so did the Harvard-educated Okawara, who climbed through the company ranks and served as president and CEO of Kentucky Fried Chicken Japan from 1984 to 2002.

To answer your question, because advertising.

Have you had exactly zero Asian American friends? Asian-niggas love them some Popeyes, especially Cambodians and Indonesians.
The one near me is so fucking full of Indonesians that the owner, a Paki, has learned to bahasa at the customers.

I know, I know. He doesn't quite speak Indonesian, though so I didn't wanna say 'Indonesian'. He mixes a bunch of the languages together.

I was trying to make sure you knew the pro tip, that's all. Bahasa itself means language unless you add something to it.

Example, bahasa indonesia, bahasa inggris, bahasa melayu etc

>Is Popeye's Christmas food?
Popeyes is damn good. Not alot you can do at home to improve on spicy chicken made to order with that cayenne under the crunchy skin. They might even do fried turkey on holiday weeks. I'm going to assume whatever is in that crock pot is the cultural food of this family. There's a rice pot, and then, hrm, probably some to go on top. When you see takeout chicken, you can also think that the family has a job and no one really has time or gumption to cook. That might not even be chicken in those containers, but some veggies or biscuits.

I thought they might be Indonesian but then I noticed that weird chicken with coconut milk and vinegar thing that Filipino people eat.
Also, the complete lack of any foods I recognise leads me to think they might not be Indonesian. And no bawang goreng anywhere in sight.

>>9880487
Right?
Every American chain in Indonesia has fried chicken and rice on the menu. BK, McD and Wendys all have boxes of fried chicken and they all taste pretty much like not-quite-as-good-but-still-pretty-good versions of Popeyes.
