Chickenless KFC

[lancsdave]

Just heard one of the presenters on 2BR saying she called in at Accrington KFC last night. They had run out of the normal chicken. Sounds about right for that place

Hopefully, they've run out because they're about to close. Accy deserves better than having chickens**t like this in the town.

I thought that all their chicken was ABNORMAL

This has reminded me that many years ago the KFC at Salmesbury was prosecuted for serving up the rooks that roosted in the tall trees that once grew nearby.

Totally agree. Cannot believe people actually pay for that muck.

Why? It probably tasted better than the muck they usually serve up.

I actually like the one at Salmesbury..... now I know why

I called in there last week and they had a sign up asking people to pay with plastic as they wouldn't have any change for a few days, I thought that was strange but,

A chicken shop without chicken? They really must be on the way out!

 

[lancscat]

odd times we go u can be sure one of the items we ask for they havnt got.and the staffs manners are terrible.id rather go to blackburn

 

[panther]

so its not just me who thinks accy KFC is crap!
but i like it at Salmesbury.......emmmmm crunchy fried rooks

The Accy one seems to have been grim from day one but not all the staff are ignorant, some are quite pleasant.

Running out of chicken is bad management though - but quite funny.

 

[kathleen_firth]

thats happened to me before today
they never seem to have any thing at the blackburn kfc

 

[panther]

they never seem to have any thing at the blackburn kfc

What a load of rubbish - surely you don't believe that. Thats worse than the Sport headline World War 2 Bomber Found On Moon.

It may well have been before your time - it was the only KFC within an hours travelling distance then.
Probably other oldies will remember too - caused quite a stir at the time

 

[MargaretR]

PS - KFC are franchised outlets and the only control KFC has over them is that they MUST use the original KFC coating to the chicken(?) pieces

 

[moon]

I love KFC, rooks or no rooks its still "finger licking good"!!!!

 

[entwisi]

For those that didn't watch it The Jamies Foul Dinners pointed out that KFC etc all use the cheapest chicken they can buy. as in 13 birds/m^2

 

[magpie]

used to like the spare ribs they did... but they no longer do them: The one on Blackburn Road was far better than the one we have now:
