Muslims Demand KFC Alter The Colonel’s Secret Recipe — Seriously!

Colonel Sanders is rolling over in his grave.

But, so far, KFC is holding the line on the latest absurd Muslim demand that all of society bow to their religious beliefs.

This story is from Frontline News:

Latest: Kansas City Suburbs: White Kid Robbed by 3 Black Kids at Gun Point, Perps Share it on Social Media

Kentucky Fried Chicken is a highly successful chain restaurant. They have been around for decades. And they won’t be leaving. But the legal dispute they are caught up in is threatening that. More importantly, it is over some of the most absurd nonsense that will make your stomach turn.

==============================================================

A group of Muslim believers is campaigning for Kentucky Fried Chicken to shut down their businesses if they do not serve halal food. It is a movement that is gaining a lot of support in New Zealand all thanks to a Facebook and social media campaign. They have gained over 2,000 likes in a little over a month and their support continues to grow.

The US Herald reported,

“The movement is being led by Syeda Fouzia, who said the process of delivering halal food ‘is not that difficult.’ ‘We’ve had some criticism, but having halal certification will only mean more people will be able to eat at KFC. It won’t affect non-Muslims,’ UK-born Ms. Fouzia told reporters.

However what seems to be missing in all of this is KFC’s iconic branding within the fast food industry and whether it might actually affect its business model around the world, in that the entire concept of KFC is its branding persona of it’s carefully guarded “top-secret” original recipe which includes a blend of 11 herbs and spices.

However, Ms. Fouzia has gained a lot of support online asking why the simple transition can’t be made to include “halal KFC?” “Just like to point out KFC is a multi-national fast food corporation, it has about as much cultural bearing on New Zealander’s way of life as Tacobell,” one person said.

But not everyone was having it from the bully Muslims:

Fortunately, KFC has no intention of caving in to the demands of these pushy Muslims. ‘We appreciate their request, however, the issues relating to us being able to certify halal product for customers remain,’ said a KFC a spokesperson. ‘We have no plans to re-introduce halal in New Zealand.’ Well, there you have it. Nice job KFC!”

John Madden used to serve turkeys on Thanksgiving day football game with multiple drumsticks. I personally love dark meat so usually go after the thighs on a turkey. As to chickens, we have a store that sells rotisserie chicken which have huge drum sticks. They are probably “free range” that do marathons each morning. LOL

Yes, that was what I read into your comment. I really thought it was more ceremonial, but it looks like it would force KFC to change their long term suppliers, which should be unacceptable.

Since Muslims are the only true source for halal ingredients, then they would benefit doubly, at our expense, because the prices would go up substantially.......................

Popeyes is the best!

Just had one of their now-notorious chicken sandwiches about 45 minutes ago. It was quite good.

I usually buy those hours old roasted chickens in the chill box. It’s half the price of a fresh roasted and they’re already cooked. It’s cheaper for me to eat those... even going to the meat section and buying a raw chicken and cooking it myself. And I’ll be damned if I’m going to eat fast food in a fast food restaurant be it KFC or any other brand. I cook from scratch.

When it comes to hamburgers I use a piece of meat and grind it or have it chopped at the local butcher so it comes from one cow only.

Boy, that’s one way to get a bunch of mosques burned down.

Don’t be f’in with the Colonel’s f’in recipe.

That’s like 2nd Amendment tinkering.

Have you ever had popcorn popped in bacon grease??It’s fantastic.

Not since I was a kid. Had heart burn for years and missed out on some of the delicacies of life.

KFC has just disclosed that one of their eleven secret herbs and spices is bacon.

...So the Muslims are trying to shake them down to make KFC knock-off products throughout the Muslim world.

Could be Muslims are mere proxies for the Brits

Dang, I don’t remember. I thought original had to be the Colonel’s original recipe.

Extra crispy came later - I don’t remember if Harlan Sanders was still around when it was introduced.

Then came the Nashville Hot and Georgia Gold. Various KFC’s don’t carry them all.

Breezewood PA used to be “Kentucky Beef and Ham” back in the 1970’s. Maybe it still is (?). Anyway, in addition to chicken you could get roast beef and (gasp!) ham. It was decidedly non-Halal.

Halal involves the slaughter of the animal by a specific individual who is facing Mecca and dedicating the animal to Allah as it is killed.
It means that Christians would b eating food sacrificed to false gods.
I suspect that’s the idea.

FWIW KFC has never deep fried their chicken. It’s pressure fried.

And I don’t think they’ve ever used lard. When I worked at one in 1967 they used a commercial fry oil, the same one that McDonald’s used in their fryers.
