Lent - a difficult time for both to abide by its believers, and for catering. Many cafes and restaurants offer special in this period Lenten menu. KFC decided to expand its product range with the help of a fish sandwich - Fish Snacker Sandwich.
Snacker sandwiches first appeared in 2005. They are designed to have a snack and traditionally includes chicken. Last year at selected restaurants KFC was tested fish option. Based on the results of the experiment decided to introduce a new sandwich on the menu of all US restaurants, but only for a period of fasting. Recall that the rules regarding the selection of the Catholic fasting food softer than the Orthodox. Eating meat is not allowed on Fridays and Ash Wednesday (the first day of fasting). Watching McDonald's, successfully sold Filet O'Fish for forty fast days, at KFC not only presented his own version of fish dishes, but also asked the Pope of his blessings. "We believe that our new sandwich Catholics facilitate compliance with the principles of their faith," - said in a letter to the Vatican on behalf of the Presidio KFC Greg Dedrick (Greg Dedrick). In a letter to Benedict XVI also invited to try the new product. So far we received confirmation from the Vatican on the receipt of the letter. The company hopes to get an answer within the next week.
