CHS pointed to Good Seasoning with Gloria P Before the Donahue Show when Gloria was on the Radio's On Tuesdays and CHS was calling Her. CHS called her the Trade mark Recipe Detective ?
After the Third Telephone Call with Gloria P NEW AGE KFC Stopped C.H.S. from speaking to Gloria P ON THE TELEPHONE RADIO SHOW ? IT WAS PART OF A COURT ORDER.

I contemplated (and even designed) an herb-less recipe once, but I lost my nerve.

An old memory is not going to make you crack the recipe at all. Those people from TCK also tasted the O.R from old days and look at that horrible recipe they came up with. Vanilla l0l, sarawak white pepper dominant l0l, no garlic l0l. If i was able to taste the O.R from the 60's-70's today right now, i could crack it just from smelling and analyzing the chicken in 1 week EASILY. But a memory of me eating it 30 or 40 years ago? no way. You could think you cracked it, and then if you were to go back and actually try that old chicken you'd see it tastes much different to how you think you remember it.
And yet the earliest i tasted the O.R is back in 2001, and yet i am the one who made that massive discovery which absolutely confirms a spice and then also gives you clues and an idea of what style his recipe is. And if i were to mention that spice now most of the OG's would disagree and say i'm wrong, yet i've got 100% evidence.
Also, many of these OG's who tasted the recipe back in old days should all be in agreement with each other and have the same recipes etc but they don't, so you cannot rely on an old memory.
I still can't believe after all the effort the people at TCK put in, they close the website down and give themselves a pat on the back over that TC34D recipe? 🤣 literal delusion.

I've been eating KFC OR since 1959, and as delicious as it was, which means way more delicious than current (which to me isn't all that delicious), I couldn't express what is factually different from the current version as to taste, whereby to identify what has changed flavor-wise. I can only vouch that it was a couple shades darker back in the day, and perhaps it was also a bit more reddish, plus it was well more finger licking sticky, and it definitely smelled much better back in the day vs. current.
My main problem is that every time the flavor changes it dilutes my perception of what it tasted like before.

You will NOT have me jumping up and Down over the TCK website or the activities they followed or NOT followed as I stayed off that path they were on.
as for Vanilla it was something that was used in Egg Warsh or as a Masking in Brine to Kill Smell.
The Vanilla was Vary prominent in the Era when Dream Whip was experimented with.
As for the things they Did Please Do Not think ALL old Hands like Me were involved in that

I'm nigh-on 100% certain that it was saltier early on than it is today. But that said, at ~28 grams of salt my recipes do not taste as salty as the modern day KFC OR that is local to me. And at ~30 or more grams of salt, my family begins to tell me that mine is a tad saltier than modern day OR when the two are eaten side by side. So 29 grams of salt must be getting right close. Albeit that I've been as high as 34 grams of salt once, and 32 grams several times, and I didn't mind it. We know that early on the direct instruction to add 3.75 Lbs. of 'external' salt is a perfect scaled down match to 30 grams. So if there was additional salt in the proverbial "bag" back then, 32 to 34 grams was likely about right early on. With all of this referenced to 200 grams of flour.
My wife claims that her family didn't eat much KFC when she was growing up, and my children and their husbands, wives, plus my grand-kids only know modern KFC OR, so telling then that it was saltier when I was young is like talking to the air.

If there was salt containing brine or marinade back in the 50's-60's, then that would be salt on top of the 3.75 Lbs. added to the lug along with 25 Lbs. of flour and the "bag". It would not be deducted in any way... That puts my guess for early on at closer to 34 grams of salt at a minimum.

It did have a salt flavor early BUT it had Flavor built into the salt and the Flavor was to the Bone NOT a Flour flavor NOW NEW AGE KFC chicken.
The Old Original chicken had depth in Flavor and Visual YOU could NOT miss it you saw the herbs and Pepper and it was a Rose Red Coating Much softer then NEW AGE.
The Flavor was THERE no missing it
Now the NEW AGE if you eat it and they have NOT sifted the Flour while making the Batches it is a Bland salt and pepper chicken
