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.

Kentucky Fried Chicken is a highly successful chain restaurant. They have been around for decades. And they wont 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. Weve had some criticism, but having halal certification will only mean more people will be able to eat at KFC. It wont affect non-Muslims, UK-born Ms. Fouzia told reporters.
However what seems to be missing in all of this is KFCs 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 its 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 cant 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 Zealanders 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!

I’d tell the moozlums to “go to halal”.
Excellent.
If one of them were smart, that’s exactly what they would name their muslim-owned and built food chain restaurant. Just “Halal”.
We need some food. Let’s go to Halal!
Of course islam isn’t known for play on words or a sense of humor...much less slightly self depricating humor...
I don't recall how that worked out - Church's might've since been sold off by the goat aficionados. At least in that case, they took the logical first step of BUYING the company. I guess now it's just easier and cheaper to harass people until they give you what you want.
The fries were ruined when they caved to Indians -dot not feather - and changed from frying them in beef tallow.
I have to say a lot of food was ruined when the companies switched to soy bean oil from other fats or oils.
muslims exhibiting cultural intolerance, who’da thunk
If its halal we don’t eat it.
