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!

The one here is in a nice area, but I know what you mean.
So don’t go to KFC, assholes.
In order for the foods to be ‘halal’ all ingredients must also be ‘halal’, so you have to get Halal certified ingredients. And where would you get those?...........FROM MUSLIMS OF COURSE!...................
We are an outrageously tolerant country. We’re likely to tolerate ourselves right out of existence. As a matter of national security America should become a muslim-free country.
Risking you life for fried chicken just makes it tastier. Good things come at a price.
Don’t eat there. Problem solved.
I hope they start frying chicken in lard.
KFC should either ignore them or simply say “NO!”.
Why dont these muslims start their own restaurant chain that makes food the way they want?
We should resist any attempts at this by saying we don’t want to be politically incorrect and appropriate their culture.
Fifteen centuries as of 2022!
Using lard in the deep-fryer.
Why don’t gay people open up bakeries, Flower Shops and Photography Studios to serve their needs?...............
I like my chicken cooked in bacon grease.
“OK, we’ve reduced the amount of pork fat y’all have been eating.”
Ill be happy if the kfc just changes iota grease I love the taste, always have, but get sick from dirty grease now
They have been. That’s part of the problem.
Harlan Sanders, who was never really a colonel, fried chicken in lard. I doubt they still do this though.
I can’t handle msg without getting headaches.
