When I traveled a bit last year, it seemed KFC was everywhere! I would think a Chicken Index would be as good as any to have.

KFC is definitely more popular than McDonalds in Asia. Chicken and pork are much more popular than beef. I've always assumed it had to do with the stupendously inefficient nature of beef in terms of cost & land.

I went to KFC the other day, since the McDonald's next door was way too busy. KFC doesn't always do better than McDs, at least in Beijing.

Beef is also taboo in India.

It's not common in Brazil.
