    Stop going there then!

    If you'd read a little further on you might have seen that that's what the poster intends!


    The last time I had KFC I spent three days being sick. Never again.

    On the other hand I have visited the KFC at Boston many times and they are consistently appalling. Their service is dire. The staff never smile, rarely say please or thankyou and look blank at you if you ask for sauce or something they have forgotten to put on your tray. The eat-in area is always filthy and so it was NO SURPRISE to see in Bostons local paper that during a local health inspection they were awarded NO stars.
    .

    KFC Boston has also failed this years inspection it was on the local radio, quite embarassing for a chain resturant like KFC to fail its health inspection for 2 years running !

    My dh had a KFC at Seoul airport last month. My son said it probably stood for Korean Fried Canine. :D
  • I've had some great KFC meals - as fast food goes it's probably the best. When I had poor food I have phoned the shop and on one occasion got the meal replaced free of charge on my next visit and it was impeccable. At the Trafford Centre we were in a big queue, had a stroppy staff member and poor food so I rang the head office who were most apologetic sent me a nice letter and some vouchers which more than covered the cost of the meal.

    We've all seen the ad on the TV where the family get the bucket and share it around. My children have been pestering me to try KFC, so we got a family bucket last month.

    We got 8 scrawny chicken wings, 4 bags of chips with about half a dozen chips per bag, 4 small pieces of corn on the cob and a bottle of pop for £9.99. It wasn't enough to feed 4 people as a main meal, and we were really disappointed.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Not wanting to sound harsh, but does it really matter how the chickens are treated if they end up dead and in your belly at the end of it? If the welfare of animals bred for food really concerns you, become vegetarian/vegan.

    EDIT---EDIT---EDIT

    ... and if you're that bothered about always getting crap takeaways, try cooking for yourself. It really is that easy. Probably cheaper too.
