Colonel Harland Sanders invented one of the most famous recipes in American history: the blend of 11 herbs and spices in his Kentucky Fried Chicken. And as this handwritten, 68-year-old recipe is prepared to be transferred for the first time in decades, company executives are wringing their hands with anxiety.

InventHelp knows just how important the fine details of any invention can be. So, we can certainly understand why this legendary recipe is being monitored under extremely high security as it is moved to from corporate headquarters to an undisclosed location.

Just to give you an idea of how protected this recipe is, only two company executives at any time have access to it. The company refuses to release the names or titles of the execs. Its multiple suppliers produce only a portion of the entire blend and have no idea what the other suppliers are producing.

KFC, part of the fast-food company Yum Brands Inc., hired off-duty police officers and security guards to help with the transfer. The recipe invention will be contained in a suitcase that is handcuffed to the security lead and driven away in an armored car.

The yellowing sheet of notebook paper includes the exact portions of each herb and spice, and is signed by Colonel Sanders himself. Although others have tried to copy the recipe, company executives say the real recipe is so surprising that no one else has come close.

InventHelp’s Invention Girl isn’t a fan of fast food, but after writing this blog I have to admit that I have a hankering for some good old fried chicken!
