o s a r chickens: saddam wings?
o! i s a r chickens!
Yup, a super-spicy hotwings outfit in China is using the image of Saddam Hussein to promote their product.
The dictator’s history of war crimes and genocide has been elided and somehow
translated into the Passion Barbecue Chicken Wings shop's light-hearted motto: ‘Saddam loved a challenge – and eating our spicy wings needs the same courage’
and later in the article:
Another local added: "It's a sick gimmick. But you can bet that where Saddam is now is a hell of a lot hotter than any spicy chicken.”
*hyuk!*
Actually, one thing I heard was that when Saddam was found in that hole in the ground, he'd been subsisting on fun-size candy bars. I can't quite wrap my brain around how, but that seems somehow poetic. Fun size.
Hunh.

Well, with all that red, white and black signage, he does kind of look like China's new yard bird Colonel. Fickle finger lickin' good in fact.
This could be the start of a trend in dictator fast food franchises.
The Kim Jong-il Noodle House or the Hitler Haus of Currywurst.
