Frisby (restaurant)
Frisby is a Colombian fried chicken restaurant chain founded by Alfredo Hoyos Mazuera in 1977. Frisby was founded in Pereira. It started as a pizzeria; however, later its owners decided to finally go into the fried chicken market, pioneering the fried chicken market in the country, and bringing to Colombia the moniker for the dish, broaster chicken. The owner claims that the company name, Frisby, comes from the technique of spinning pizza dough in the air, which makes it resemble a Frisbee disk In 1978 they start opening new places in the Coffee axis. In 1987 the first shop in Bogotá is opened, and the same thing happens in Medellín in 1990. Frisby has more than 200 restaurants in 50 Colombian cities.

Biscuit (bread)
In the United States and Canada, a biscuit is a variety of baked bread with a firm, dry exterior and a soft, crumbly interior. It is made with baking powder as a leavening agent rather than yeast, and at times is called a baking powder biscuit to differentiate it from other types. Like other forms of bread, a biscuit is often served with butter or other condiments, flavored with other ingredients, or combined with other types of food to make sandwiches or other dishes. Biscuits, soda breads, cornbread, and similar breads are all considered quick breads, meaning that they do not need time for the dough to rise before baking. Biscuits developed from hardtack, which was first made from only flour and water, with later first lard and then baking powder being added. The long development over time and place explains why the word ''biscuit'' can, depending upon the context and the speaker's English dialect, refer to very different baked goods.

Frisbee
A frisbee (pronounced ), also called a flying disc or simply a disc, is a gliding toy or sporting item that is generally made of injection-molded plastic and roughly in diameter with a pronounced lip. It is used recreationally and competitively for throwing and catching, as in flying disc games. The shape of the disc is an airfoil in cross-section which allows it to fly by reducing the drag and increasing lift as it moves through the air, compared to a flat plate. Spinning the disc imparts a stabilizing gyroscopic force, allowing it to be both aimed with accuracy and thrown for distance. A wide range is available of flying disc variants. Those for disc golf are usually smaller but denser and tailored for particular flight profiles to increase or decrease stability and distance. The longest recorded disc throw is by David Wiggins Jr. with a distance of . Disc dog sports use relatively slow-flying discs made of more pliable material to better resist a dog's bite and prevent in ...

Fried Chicken
Fried chicken, also known as Southern fried chicken, is a dish consisting of chicken pieces that have been coated with seasoned flour or batter and pan-fried, deep fried, pressure fried, or air fried. The breading adds a crisp coating or crust to the exterior of the chicken while retaining juices in the meat. Broiler chickens are most commonly used. The first dish known to have been deep fried was fritters, which were popular in the European Middle Ages. However, the Scottish were the first Europeans to deep fry their chicken in fat (though without seasoning). Meanwhile, many West African peoples had traditions of seasoned fried chicken (though battering and cooking the chicken in palm oil). Scottish frying techniques and West African seasoning techniques were combined by enslaved Africans and African Americans in the American South. History The American English expression "fried chicken" was first recorded in the 1830s, and frequently appears in American cookbooks of ...
