to think that KFC should do better than this?

[Fran23]

My local paper printed a horrific story about conditions in KFC this week (here: www.falmouthpacket.co.uk/news/11343184.Blood__grease__and_filthy_flooded_floor_closes_Falmouth_KFC/?ref=mr) - how can such a big chain get away with this? Does anyone here take their brood to KFC, and if so is it just my local branch with these problems?

Don't tar them all with the same brush, as Frank says this is a franchise and you'll get good and bad across the brand.

My friend works in my local, she loves her job. She's not a kid and neither are the majority of the staff. She tells me the place is spotlessly clean, the staff incredibly well treated and she looks forward to going to work every day (she came out of a horrible job to work there). The giveaway is she will happily eat there.
I've eaten there many times and been fine.

My local KFC has thick protective acrylic at the counters, like bulletproof glass. That is reason enough for us to not eat there. Did get a bucket there once years ago and it was more like a bucket of grease with bits of chicken.

Of course KFC could do better - they could deliver. [angy]

All they sell is chicken, and the chicken they do sell is rank. I've no idea how that place still exists!

You could say that about Nando's.

Ours is spotless praise the lorddd because I love it.

Smiles I probably would if I had ever set foot in a Nandos!

I don't have a KFC within 3-4 miles, and I don't drive. If only they did delivery like they do in Thailand and Malaysia.....that would be much better...

They deliver in Egypt as well Laymizz, as do MacDonalds. I frequently thank god they don't do it here or that would be the end of me.

The only reason I go is the wicked zinger box meal
^^ Me too. Plus the staff are much more smiley than McDonalds'.
