 Pass the hummus: The Church's Chicken franchise -- most famous for being closed on Sundays -- has decided to open up 60 locations in five Mideast nations. However, don't go looking for the highly recognizable Church's Chicken sign; they're going to call it Texas Chicken instead. "Even though the name Church's isn't tied to a place of worship -- it's actually tied to the founder's name, George Church -- in our research we found its religious connotation was misunderstood, especially in Islamic countries," said company spokesman Robert Jiminez. Yeah, I guess Shul Shnitzel wouldn't have been a good idea either.
