Why didn't the chicken cross the road?
Because DHL couldn't deliver.

Ned,
How can fish & chips be cheaper in Nottingham then in Grimsby could never work that one out I know you're in the POSH end but still should be cheaper just up the road.
Regards Howard.

Because Nottingham is closer to Billingsgate? ok2
-
Hi TT, Billingsgate is too posh for that now. I went a few years ago to a trade event and the place is really up market.
I remember seeing it in the 50s when it was a fish market and seeing a rat the size of a cat.
regards, Roy

Luton is a bit too far for some of us to get to for chicken.
But this is an absolutely blinding recipe http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/07/the-food-lab-southern-fried-chicken-recipe.html
It says serves 3-4, you can double that.
It says use Kosher salt, sea salt will be fine, or half the quantity of regular table salt.

Well do your own Chicken fingers https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/patrick-and-gina-neely/tonys-chicken-tenders-with-honey-mustard-sauce-recipe-1951195 (https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/patrick-and-gina-neely/tonys-chicken-tenders-with-honey-mustard-sauce-recipe-1951195) way better and you are in control.
The only KFC I "normally" buy, is the Asian specific "hot spicy chicken burger" and that is only available in China and Hong Kong as far as I know. It will instantly kill all bugs in your system ;-)
Back to KFC UK, they do suffer from the same decision that a big convenience store chain (COOP) did before Christmas in Denmark, some wise a.. excel masters calculated that they could save x amount of money be changing their "frost goods delivery company" well most of the shops were more or less out of the most basics things on frost for approx. 2 months, hmm what do the excel masters say about that cost ????
As a former high ranking person in Nokia said, "weller yua know it looks good on slides" = that is BS. Btw he left Nokia when he could see that BS were the new agenda in Nokia.
And who call the police because KFC is closed %%

most chicken sold in the uk is bland and boring. it has no flavour and in most cases is factory farmed, so is fed on processed pellet food. the last chicken i bought from m and s was so bland ot went in the bin. the one before that was bought from an organic farm and c9st me an arm and a leg (£19) and tasted like i remember chicken as a kid. also is was not the bland pasty white like supermarket ones. this was a nice creamy yellow colour as it was fed with corn as part if its diet. now that was a delicious chicken. as i now eat very little meat im fussier over my choice.....except when being bought lunch by anyine. there is slways room for a bacon roll.....but KFC? Think I would rather eat my own pants.......more nutritional value and a better taste!

Is it just a Coincidence that KFC run out of Chicken just after a Cheap Chicken producer gets shut down for Dirty Practises & Changing Sell-By Dates on Packaging...More reasons not to eat KFC...

I have only had 1 KFC & it didn't end well for me, I finished up in hospital with serious food poisoning, never been back....
-
They haven't run out of chicken, it's sitting rotting in the depots because the distribution arrangements have fallen apart.
Some people must like it as the police have received 999 calls asking for help in getting some.... These people are presumably voters.

Well that's some advertising campaign for KFC, and DHL.

I wonder if KFC can claim damages for loss of revenue.
I also wonder if any KFC staff will lose wages because of the closures. Remembering that many branches are franchises. I am not sure if KFC operate zero hours contracts.
-
Anyone else find it a little degrading when non-news like this hits headlines and there's heated conversations in the western world when millions of other folk in some countries can't even access basic food and water? Nevermind their local low-grade fast food franchise outlet is now shut because the head office tried to save a few £.
I do feel sorry for the workers as I belive they're franchises so staff I imagine will probably get naff-all out of it. But I'm not a customer ever so no loss to me. I imagine the proletarians who consider it a police issue are the same who would object to an ambulance stopping in their street to assist a neighbour. As mentioned before, they're probably voters, so probably helps explain things these days!
