    I use to call the place "Kentucky Fried rat" when they were popular here, not far off that now. :p

    They should have used the good ol' "it was bring your pet to work day" excuse.

    The only thing more disgusting than finding those in a KFC is eating the food from a KFC

    It says it gets 1600 food orders a day surely they must mean 16,000.

    Ya I did, it also said it got a 'serious warning' 4 months before. I don't care if it got refurbished and I'm sure you wouldn't if you were eating chips that cockroaches were all over.

    They might actually give their chicken some flavour.

    If you saw the condition in how their chucks are bred and murdered I doubt if you would want to go near them again. :eek:

    I worked in a resteraunt owned by the people who own KFC.

    If they were to clean up properly every night it would require keeping at least two extra people on for two hours every night which is frowned upon as it costs too much. :rolleyes:

    They should have had them cockroach/mouse poison things around and one of them electrifying lights for the flies.

    Stupid things to not have in this day and age.

    That's pure discrimination. Why is a cockroach not allowed to eat in a KFC? As long as it pays.

    Thats not fair I only get smarties in mine....

    KleanFaxCards is due to open in Galway in the next couple of months.
    Reports of a drop in the number of cockroaches, flies and mice in the city are NOT linked with the opening according to KleanFaxCards sources.......

    Were they sitting in, or getting a take away. Were they together?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 384 ✭✭Erica<3


    ew :( never eating there again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,228 ✭✭✭epgc3fyqirnbsx


    I had my first KFC last year and expected it to be lovely (cos its looks nice on the telly)
    I was shocked, upset and disappointed at how muck it was
    Best chicken goes to Supermacs, there snack box with the chicken grease soaked into the chips, sounds disgusting but tastes divine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    Just a single mouse and a single cockroach?

    Good thing they caught them in time or else them might have ended up mating with each other.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,526 ✭✭✭m@cc@


    If you go to KFC, what you're eating isn't of a huge concern to you.

    That said... the herbs and spices they coat the chicken with is crazy ass tasty...

    Why can't they just serve bundles of that and forget about the poorly cooked chicken.

    Because no one cares about vegetarians and it'd only encouage them to hang around annoying us proper food eaters with their hippy smell.

    Would have to be boneless though, couldn't be bothered eating round the small bones. Suppose you could eat it like a chicken wing.
