Chicken, pizza, tacos. Pretty darn simple.

They generate over $1 billion each year in cash from operations. They have a return on equity above 67%. They have more fast food outlets than anyone else (even McDonald's).
"Chicken, pizza, tacos. Pretty darn simple."Hmm, I guess I should start to,'Think outside the bun' when it comes to investments.
You are right. Just look around. with Pizza Hut, KFC, and Taco Bell. Not to mention all those great salty and sweet snack foods. More people pigging out than working out!
