ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

KFC Index

Hi there! So, have you ever heard of KFC? It's a yummy fast food restaurant that lots of people like. And did you know that some people use KFC to talk about how expensive things are in different countries?

Let me explain. You know how sometimes you have money to buy things, and sometimes you don't have that much money? Well, countries are kind of the same way. Some countries have lots of money, and some don't have as much.

So, people have this thing called "KFC index" that helps them understand how much money different countries have. They use the price of a KFC meal in different countries to help them figure out how much money those countries have.

For example, if a KFC meal costs a lot of money in a certain country, that means that country has a lot of money. But if a KFC meal costs less money in a different country, that means that country might not have as much money.

So, the KFC index is just one way that people can try to understand how much money different countries have. Would you like me to explain anything else?
