It's A Brain? It's A Kidney? It's KFC's Next PR Nightmare
As if Yum Brands were not suffering enough this morning - as they forecast China comp sales to drop 6% (more than the forecast 4% decline), it seems the UK has their next PR disaster waiting to happen, courtesy of their KFC brand. After a 19-year-old Brit found a "horrible wrinkled foreign body" in his fried chicken meal, KFC has apologized (rather magnanimously) saying "while there was no health risk, we agree it was unsightly." Judge for yourself just how puke-worthy and generally emotionally scarred you would have been after biting into this 'brain-looking' image. KFC clarifies: "Although we haven't received the product, it appears from a photograph that unfortunately on this occasion a kidney, and not a brain as claimed, was not removed in the preparation process." Oh, just a kidney? Pass the salt then.

Tightly compressed maggots?
At McDonalds they just spit on the special orders.
This shipment was destined for KFC's African franchise!
it looks like a squirrel
A circumcision gone terribly wrong? ;-)
Looney
The "greater nutrition" mat is a nice touch.
Looks great on the outside, but once you look inside....rotten to the core?
Did Ben Bernanke make this?
Where are the fava beans & the chianti?
I beat you to that joke.

General Tso's Organs.
This is standard fare off KFC's BernankDollar menu. What's the issue, again?

That is a straight up serving of Bernanke's sack.
Bon apetit bitchez!

It's just inflation. Don't worry.
No, that's Tony Blair
I believe in China KFC market it under the local name, pingarickingood.

Kidney
Freaking
Crap
Send it to China, they will eat anything, ANYTHING!
FORWARD SOVIET GOURMETS!
With the exception of wolf's heart and dog's lungs
You would be lucky to get kidney at McD's
It's a kidney and it is edible if not appetizing.
I don't eat KFC anymore, but when I was kid I ate a lot of it. Finding a kidney in the chicken was not uncommon and actually became a bit of game for us kids - first one to find a kidney wins!
Looks like a normal KFC order to me
Can someone point to the kidney on a chicken please? Especially one that big?
Okeydokey.
I keep chickens and slaughter/gut them myself.
Take it from me - that ain't no kidney.
My best guess is - compressed intestine ;o)
http://www.hertsandessexobserver.co.uk/News/Bishops-Stortford/Chicken-ki...
It is indeed just a kidney. It's good, although deep fried I'm not sure. Probably the most amount of nutrition in that KFC box meal. Lots of protein. Body builders that want lean mass eat them.

It's as though nobody here has ever cut up and cooked a chicken, squeemish toadies I say...
Not true, Winston.

Hippy.
I do wish you'd piss off and stick to posting your food pictures on Facebook.
I do wish you would learn to only read the articles and ignore the detritus (roasted in garlic and lemon) below them.
Do you go the whole hog.pun intended.
Roast pigs heads, lambs hearts,tripe etc.
I'm partial to Haggis, also black, and white pudding myself, tastes great,,
just don't think about before eating it.
You're absolutely right and I agree with you. I should ignore your detritus, aka the shit that settles at the bottom of a cesspit.
Have you noticed that I'm not the only one who disapproves of your food pics? ;O)
I like to see real food once a year. Thanks for posting
Gloves? You sissies! Bare hands are the way to go for that job. ;-)
But I will admit all the old vets called Mr. Miffed a sissy for using gloves for AI on the Jersey cows.
Miffed:-)
Drive through kitchen?
ya gotta leave inside parts for the hot dog makers
It's pretty sad when people can't identify food. Says something about a society's ability to be independant from a supply chain if they can't indentify a sweet meat from something as common as a chicken.
Now I'm wondering what the hell they make their gravy with (disgusting packaged shit?).
Boil and render the carcass to make the stock. Simmer it all in a sauce pan on low. Mash kidney's into gravy to avoid chunky gravy. Put on everything. Delicious.
Alternatively add more water to the stock and make soup with the heart, liver and neck.
Silly CPL. Everyone knows food is made in supermarkets.
<Just-In-Time supermarket delivery rots the sated brain.>
well, in their defense it was probably a chicken leg at one time anyway.
the digestive tract does wierd stuff to food don't you know...
Kentucky
Fried
Cocks
with 'special' sauce
"YUM" just doesn't do this justice!
Only 10 secret ingredients to go.
Yuck is the new Yum!
My dad's first job involved bringing in advertisers for a local radio station and he told me a story about how he landed a huge deal with KFC. Shortly thereafter, someone found a kentucky fried mouse. Cute little fry ball with its tail and feet sticking out. Made great news coverage. KFC pulled the ad deal because whenever anyone heard their jingle about "secret ingredients", they remembered the kentucky fried mouse.
9 secret ingredients to go...

Only 7 to go!
Why do you think its called Fast Food ?
I know why its called fast, just don't know why its called food
Stop being a whimp. It is all the same nutrients, your ancestors would have no questions eating. Or do you care eating the same stuff hidden in your sausage? It is all protein and should not be wasted by picky, overweight pampered westerners.
Agree? You will not die, although it diverges from acceptable white meat.
So they freak out about a chicken kidney whilst chowing down on steak and kidney pie at the local pub?
the " H " in WHIMP is silent like the " P " in swimming
heh..that's funny..right there
"Our sincere apologies. Please accept lifetime of free deep fried chicken from KFC (original maggot style) as a way of making it up to you."

"...and a side order of fava beans with that, please"
It's a Rooster testicle. lol
We finally know where Corzine ended up, it seems.
wishful thinking
holy fuck
The hidden face of the factory food system.
"Holy Fuck", indeed.
I WANT A BUCKET OF THOSE AND 4 PINTS OF BEER TO WASH THEM DOWN!
LET'S HAVE SOME GOOD EATING!
ps: in the new world, insects will replace meat.
Every bite of KFC is a gamble.
Soylent Fried Chicken.
It's eating stuff like this without whining that keeps me at the top of the food chain!
Save the rats, bitchez!
I bet it tastes like chiken
KFC: Kidney Fried Chicken
Finger Lickin Good.
Oh man. YUM?? Brands
This poor kid..well maybe not so poor after this.
He received a lifelong free KFC voucher
And the guy in line behind him got TWO vouchers..
BLING BLING!!!
I alway tell the story on how I would like to get a hot cup of coffee spilled into my lap at McDonals by the moron behind the counter :)
anybody remember that multi million dollar claim back than? It was big!
Actually, unless you want skin grafts all over your crotch + an 8 day hospital stay + other third and second degree burns, only to have your award later reduced by an appellate court... I'd pipe down.
+180 degrees
She should have got more. The McDonald's PR machine painted her as an idiot.
The coffee was so hot it melted her clothing right into her skin.
What fabric melts at 212 ºF? Sh*t made in Zhengzhou ghetto basements?
/rhetorical question
I don't know.
Maybe it was her skin melting into her clothes. Either way, the coffee was scalding hot and McDonald's was serving coffee at a much higer temp than other franchises.
I've spilled coffee on my skin more than once and never required skin grafts; they settled with her for an undisclosed amount but not before making her the poster child for tort reform.
Man-made fabrics like polyester melt when exposed to a certain heat point . I don't know what she was wearing, of course, but that would be one bad example.
Exactly chunga... we got this huge push for tort reform, but then everyone figured out that we already had tort reform from the 70s (actually since the middle of the 19th century, but who's counting) and there wasn't much else you could whittle away without completely revealing you were in bed with insurance companies and their largest clients... aside from the fact that much of tort reform is patently unconstitutional in many states... (we're too young to remember why that darned old text was put in there, what the fuck did they know? let's get rid of it!).
IDK what his complaint was. Don't they eat steak and kidney pie over there?
.
Yes, and ........ spotted dick.
Kentucky Fried Cranium
People need to lighten up. If you have *ever* broken down a whole chicken or turkey, you've seen that before. You make gravy with parts like that.
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! Make gravy with that? Not me or anyone else I know. Put down the hash pipe mate.
Is that a picture of you? Well, you might be happy in the near future, if you did get the whole chicken to eat. They will charge extra probably.
Elena Kagan's face photoshopped over Sgt. Schultz.
There are people who don't know that meat comes from animals. And that you can eat many parts of the animal.
This is a perfect example of "first world problems."
KFC...Kidney in my Fucking Chicken.
People should visit a meatfactory once in while and see how their food is prepared :)
WHAT THE FUCK TO YOU THINK THEY PUT IN YOUR HAMBURGERS?
DO YOU REALLY THINK IT'S PRIME RIB THEY PUT INTO IT?!?
Dude, harvesting vegetables is confusing for most folks. Meat is fucking magic.
he's from belgium ... it's a pate thing
As part of developing a microbial scanner for DuPont, our team visited the Parks Sausage (a minority owned business BTW) plant in Baltimore, MD around 1990. Damn! I don't think any of us have ever eaten sausage since then.
(If you read this Les, give me a buzz on the Farm Line)
As a student I worked in a slaughter house because... well the pay was great.
First week: The Salami production line... my god... really... I think I said that every second in that first week...
Second week: Ham... really... pink and fresh? THINK AGAIN!! It starts green/blue/gray and stinks and comes uit pink and with a fresh smell after 50 needles and steam went through it!
Third week: Sausage... and than I quit.
Really, it was uber discusting. I didn't just eat any meat for a year anymore, I almost gaged everytime I smeled meat!
IT IS DISCUSTING.
Meat isn't red like you see in the stores. Really, it isn't! That because of the chemicals and salts!
DO YOU REALLY THINK MEAT LOOKS NICE RED AND FRESH FOR 2 WEEKS!? Because mostly it takes that long before it ends up in your fridge! And that's when the labels are right and honest!
Meat looks like roadkill before they start "fixing" it!
Just ask your grandparents if they're still alive how meat looked back in the days before the age of chemicals!
If you ever get to Minnesota take a tour of the Spam line capped off with a visit to the Spam Museum in Austin . I think the fiery depilation machine is the best. Although the "Churner" is pretty cool too.
Oh yeah, the Ham?
THEY FIRST CLEANED IT WITH BLEECH!!!!!
In that way, they destroyed all "original flavor". Than they injected the supplements that make it taste like what you think is ham!
You say bleach? All those chickens they can't sell by the sell by date are soaked in a bleach/water solution, then rotisseried for your take home pleasure. Bon Appetit.
Ceiling cat?
Where the hell is the puking smiley?
Smiley? He loves cats, just can't eat a whole one himself. :D
That is fucking repulsive.
If i has bitten into this i would have become a vegan (from a red meat eating canadian) immediately.
Oh heck.. can you imagine an American, or anyone for that mater 100 years ago going apoplectic because chicken parts got mixed up a bit in a meal?
It wasn’t like a loaded intestine got deep fried..
or somebody put petroleum products in the Twinkies.
or ground glass in your lipitor.
+1 I am seriously thinking of becomeing a vegan because of thet picture.
That looks typically English.
And in France it's called "Nouveau Cuisine" and will set you back €500 for 1 serving!
Looks like Piers Morgans face
except its prettier
On the bright side, it would appear that KFC is actually serving Chicken.
Ahh, so that's their secret recipe.
blech
I just so happened to be eating when this image appeared - yuk.
Warning: May contain actual chicken
BRAINS.....BRAINS......
Waste no -- want not. Must use EVERY part of the carcass to its fullest.
The American Indians would eat the heart of the buffalo while the body was still warm to increase their virility.
Nah, i know what that is... a lot of maggots were eating away at chicken and they threw it in the fry so they became crispy maggots. Finger licking good.
Maybe they were just trialing an attempt at fast-food haggis.
This is why I stick to McDonalds. I can spot a toe posing as a chicken nugget quicker than a fontal lobe concealed in my breast.

I knew i would regret clicking on that link. Thanks.
not gonna...nu uh
ROFLMAO
What animal is the kidney from? That's what should be of concern here.
Hey, They don't call it "SURPRISE CHICKEN" for nothing!

They might look the same...
http://www.designartculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/kfc02.jpg
I can't even leave that picture on my screen.
Whatever. If you fried your toe, you'd think it tastes like chicken.
I would actually look at your food before you shovel it into your face.
Thats irony for you. British food is the equivalent of everything the asians won't eat, and they STILL think this is gross.
I'll have the #4 with some Fava Beans and a nice Chianti on the side!
Is that a "Big Kahuna Burger?"
Would you like a Sprite with that?

This is why we all need iPhones.
This is why it's best to prepare your own food.
Are you trying to put fast food workers out of a good union job? The poor union bosses will starve
Make Piers Morgan eat it. Fucking no good Brits.
Fucking disgusting. I cant look at it.
now, I wonder if I was starving what would I eat?
desperate times, desperate measures......
grass, dandylions flower petals
eating fast food only makes you shit your brains out. Thats all its good for. And for a good hangover cure.

Yummy! Looks almost as delicious as this dip I'm about to buy more of...
Looks like their new Deep Fried Kidney Pie accidently made it out of the UK test kitchen.
This thing is not a nice thing to see a breakfast time. Hurry and post more articles. Make it go away.
YUM raised their prices significantly for this sub standard fried garbage.
It's about time people boycott these places.
Looks like great catfishing bait!
The only thing worse than finding a kidney in your fried chicken is finding half a kidney in your fried chicken.
When I worked at KFC. These are the pieces we kept for the cops. Those fat fuckers never came back to complain.
Here piggy piggy PIGGYYY !
Hilarious.
Deep-fried clump o' maggots - or brain. That is not a kidney. Disgusting doesn't even begin to.........where's the barf bag?
KFC Kids Meal*= Kentucky Fried Cidneys
*Spell Checker Not Included
its the same size as a childs kindey (not a chickens) so KFC should = Kidney Fried Children
YUM changing to YUK.
YUK foods.
What type of garbage does Taco Bell use for their meat?
Pizza Hut and their sausage?
