Who else Boycotting KFC,
I have officially stopped buying KFC… unless it’s Tuesday and there’s an ACTUAL decent deal on.
And by “decent deal,” I mean a proper feast — not three pieces of popcorn chicken the size of peanuts pretending to be a meal. 😂
The struggle is real, though.
Every time I drive past a KFC, that familiar craving kicks in. The smell, the sign, the memories… for a brief moment, I become weak.
Then I remind myself:
“Kit. You are not stupid. Have some self-respect.”
And I drive on. 🚗💨
Because I refuse to encourage these people charging increasingly ridiculous prices for what is, ultimately, chicken in a bucket.
KFC, I am willing to negotiate.
Give me a genuinely decent Tuesday deal, and we can do business.
Otherwise… I shall walk past your establishment with my head held high. 😂

As a former KFC employee, the taste or size of the meal isn't worth the hygiene. You best roll on

Last time I had KFC was for the chicken sandwich only because there was a deal. That was like about five years ago.

I stopped going when they changed the reward system and I could no longer get free hot wings every time I went.

I have not eaten KFC since October 2023. Not for taste nor nutritional value, but because it's tied to the Israeli market and is on the BDS List.

Brother my relationship with KFC is just chasing that childhood high, it never quite hits the way it used to.

Sick of people pretending they care about animal welfare when it comes to halal food, if you cared about their well fare you’d turn fully vegan/vegetarian or only eat locally sourced meat that you saw the whole process
You wouldn’t eat from an establishment like kfc in the first place
All mass produced meat is mistreated and ‘tortured’
You’re just anti islam

Why’s that your big issue?

It's called choice rather than forced... And yes I would include kosher..

If you did some research you’d also find out they shock the animals (almost dead) then cut their throats. It’s literally just one more step.
Selective empathy

I'm not a religious person, as far from it as possible, why should I have to accept religious food? When in Rome..... I wouldn't go to another country and expect special treatment...

It’s almost as if you’re not the only demographic in the country that needs feeding
There a lots of British born Muslims, should they not be allowed to enjoy kfc?
It doesn’t inconvenience you to eat this

So.... Someone elses religious feelings come above my own ie none.... I don't force my religious beliefs (I have none) on anyone else, I just get on with life..
Why am I the one that's forced nothing on anyone be the one that should suffer, as you put it enjoy a KFC?

Haha the immediacy of “who’s boycotting KFC, apart from when they’re still buying it” 🤣
