Flamingo

She is pure Alice in Wonderland, and her appearance and demeanor 
are a nicely judged mix of the Red Queen and a flamingo.
~ Truman Capote

A bucket of flamingos is not something you hear about very often.  A bucket of chicken, maybe but that is different.  I bet if flamingos tasted like chicken and there was a chain of restaurants they would be called "Florida Fried Flamingo."  The side dishes might be mostly the same.  And if they wanted, over the years, to distance themselves from the word "fried" and changed their name to FFF, it wouldn't be as catchy as KFC.

 Oh, and I guess the buckets would have to be bigger.

(pause)

So it's probably just as well that never caught on.  Or was even attempted.
