KFC

[videogamer75]

You know it surprises me that they haven't either closed or renovated my local KFC into a KFC/Taco Bell. NOBODY ever goes there, the service is terrible, and the store is very dirty and not a desirable place to eat at, although the food is good. Everybody goes to the McDonald's across the street, and I think I once heard the workers inside commenting on it. I would love for it to become a KFC/Taco Bell and hire some more employees, because I bet that if they added a TB they would get way more than 1 customer a day and a lot of people would actually go there.

I wonder if ANY KFC restaurants nowadays still have the classic original recipe look like that one?

Here's a KFC/Taco Bell/Pizza Hut combo in Georgia that I took the picture of in February 2007:

I never saw the mammouth red bird sign like the pic posted.  Where was that store?

It is in Marietta, Georgia. There is a neat write-up of it with a vintage picture and a current picture on this site called Roadside America. :)

Southington, CT KFC. Pic taken today 2/21/09. Locals call it Kentucky Fried Rat. Pic taken from my car parked across the street in Queen Plaza. This KFC was the site of a PETA protest back in 03.

peta should just give up  ift we want to eat kfc its our  chose  they might like it so they  dont have to eat it

[Marc82]

Thinking back on the day PETA held its protest at the KFC, my friend who was program director of the local radio station interviewed someone from PETA on his show and they told him PETA's ultimate goal was for everyone in the world to become vegetarians. As for the PETA protest itself that was being held because the chickens raised by KFC were supposedly being abused.

I'm against PETA. I mean who on earth would brainwash people into thinking we could all be vegetarians?! I think that's ludicrous from a meat connoisseur's standpoint. We should all be free to choose what we eat, and don't let these organizations tell you otherwise.

I agree with you 100%. And as for them protesting because the animals were abused? Um, I don't really care. As long as they taste good in the final product I don't really care if they were abused. It's not like household domesticated pets that were being abused, which is sad and needs to stop.

i been eating kfc all my life well all but the time my town didnet have one for a year then reopend closer to me with the tacobell

As far as the whole PETA thing goes, I can see why they give KFC a hard time. They have always been ranked the very worst by PETA in terms of animal rights. Their biggest complaint is how horrible the short lived chicken's life is before they become KFC product. I'm not a vegan, but I admit it is a little messed up.

They are usually trapped in a small crowded cage, fed genetically altered stuff to make them become really plump and fat at a really young age. Then put on an assembly line of death. It's a grim story, but KFC is good I have to admit.

Sure, pro-meat people make a good argument. But it's the means in which we have come to in the treatment of the animals that PETA people dislike the most, not just the fact that we are eating animals.

 thats why god made chickens so we whould have somthing to eat im allways going to  eat at kfc this peta group  was proetesting a few years ago in worcster almost casuseing a big pole up  on the highway by hangeing a sing up over the highway and the state police  sayed they wont allow them to protest  in the state again ift they do they will go to jail

[videogamer75]

I like and respect animals and I agree that it is wrong and messed up when they are abused the way KFC does. There are more humane ways of doing what they do, for example the controlled air method that Burger King uses, which doesn't cause actual pain to the chickens. However, at the same token, I think it's wrong that PETA is trying to dictate what we all eat. They were never given the right to make decisions for us, they don't have any power over us. And besides that, they have killed thousands of dogs and cats for unknown reasons, there are several websites that can prove this. They are pretty much an all-around fascist and hypocritical organization who even advocates arson. I will probably continue to eat meat. Besides, there will always be a good amount of animals on Earth - they should just take solace in that fact.

Now when you say "brought back", do you mean the same nuggets they used to serve up until the mid-90s?
