Here's the story on the original Chicken Delight. Founded in 1952, suburban Chicago. At peak (1966) around 1,100 take-out stores were open in about 25 states. Nearly all were franchised. Toward 1969, franchisees wanted change (in how chicken was prepared, quality control issues, etc.) as McDonald's and KFC began dominating the market. Disgruntled Chicken Delight franchisees filed a class action (anti-trust) lawsuit against the corporation, and won. Result, by 1972, was breakup of the chain. Stores began closing early as 1968, and many became KFCs.
