Is KFC being cruel to chickens?? While I was googling on my previous article on the new KFC Boneless Fillet Box, I found this website,www.kentuckyfriedcruelty.com/. It's making me uneasy. Seriously, they put colonel's pictures but not the smiling face, it's the cruel, sinister face, twisted smile and holding a chicken by it's legs.

It's stated that KFC crams chickens are crammed by the tens of thousands into excrement-filled sheds that stink of ammonia fumes, chicken's legs and wings often break because they’re bred to be too top-heavy and because workers carelessly shove them into transport crates and shackles and they are dropped into hot water after having their throats slit. A lot more cruelty to be read there!

Five members of KFC's Animal Welfare Advisory Council have resigned in frustration due to KFC didn't listen to any of their advices or even hold out meetings. Adele Douglass, told the Chicago Tribune that KFC “never had any meetings. They never asked any advice, and then they touted to the press that they had this animal-welfare advisory committee. I felt like I was being used.”

Wow...I never thought..well, I never imagine something like this..

And there's another one, on why KFC is called KFC, instead of Kentucky Fried Chicken like it used to be back in the old times.

“They can no longer use the name Kentucky Fried Chicken because the chicken they serve isn’t real chicken! I heard that the chickens they breed are genetically modified so that they do not have feathers on them. This will then save them time because they do not need to pluck them off their body.”

However, Snopes.

So which is true???








Shine on,
