Knowing he couldn’t live on his pension, he took his chicken recipe in hand, got behind the wheel of his van, and set out to make his fortune. [20]His first plan was to sell his chicken recipe to restaurant owners, who would in turn pay him some money for every piece of chicken they sold—5 cents per chicken. The first restaurateur he called on turned him down.
