Apparently you can get birds ready plucked in Israel. Though they might get stuck in some people's gullets, being Jewish chickens, even when fried in the Colonel's secret recipe of eleven herbs and spices.

Though I suppose all slaughter methods are available for the poor pluckers.

At least they don't use battery farming methods, and the produce is allowed freedom of movement, before hitting the fryer.

Let's not confuse attacking party policy with general frustration against stupidity, as demonstrated by my 'tirades' against the PC Brigade. Organisations who keep making new rules to appease supposedly oppressed minorities who haven't uttered a single word of complaint aren't always looked upon too favourably, as demonstrated here by KFC.

Things come in cycles and the tide is turning against a system that is eroding culture and making things that we've lived with for years either prejudiced or a health and safety concern.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

So, there is going to be a backlash

Maybe 'backlash' is too strong a term but whenever this comes up in conversation the general consensus is that people don't like being told that something they've been used to all their lives without it causing any problems is suddenly an issue with certain groups.

With all the decent halal food outlets around Hyndburn it would seem odd for the Muslim council to cause any sort of fuss about KFC not serving food that they can eat.

From the little I know of poultry farming, chickens are actually killed in halal style anyway to keep the meat in the right conditions.

well i just got off the phone with KFC and was told it is a trial but i doubt that somehow i think its just to appease the people who ring up but i was told that they are recieving quite a lot of complaints and oddly enough the so called trials arnt going on in america .

I also pointed out that muslims have been eating there way before they introduced this policy and actually working in the kfc places with the non halal meat so there was no need to appeal to teh muslim faith because they were already customers and employees

i was thanked for my input and on a lighter note if you ring now you may get the same sexy sounding chick i did ( not a cruchy fried one)

As far as I'm aware no pressure was put on KFC to serve halal food. As was previously pointed out, this decision seems to be there's alone, based on economics.

It remains to be seen, at the end of the trial, whether or not it was a wise one.

i think there are 2 dixie chicken outlets in accy and one caladoinia which both are halal meat users so its not a sthough there wa sany need for this move by kfc.I stopped using subway some time back because lancashire stores switched to halal meat which incidently brings me to ask why is it just lancashire that has these outlets switching to halal meat do we not have any whites in lancashire anymore or somthing .I think teh only fast food outlet localy that hasnt switched to halal meat is mcdonalds so i suppose with peopel avoiding kfc and not realy wanting to eat mcdonalds teh christian/white english will be eating more healthy lol

Some people with white skins might Muslims, and some with brown skins might be Christians.

Some people, of whatever colour, mightn't be religious at all.

ok perhaps what i should have asked is what is it about lancashire that makes us so different from teh rest of the uk that makes KFC and subway think that the majority of the population here are muslim and need catering for

How on Earth did you leap to that? As I've previously stated, the clientele in KFC Accrington already seems to have a large Asian presence so why alter things to please a group who don't appear to be complaining?

Come back at me by all means, but at least read my posts properly.
