When you’re munching on your “finger lickin’ good” KFC fried chicken, would you ever imagine you’re actually eating trash? Over the last week, this webpage (Chinese only) - consisting of a scanned story from a local news magazine called Next Magazine - has been widely circulated. It reveals a shocking story about a KFC store in Hong Kong where trashed food has been picked up shortly before the closing time of the shop to “avoid reheating the frying machine”. The outrageous behaviour is said to have been the combined result of young workers not willing to stay long after the official business hours to clean up the kitchen because of the low wages, and the shop management’s demand to make their branch an “A grade” one by saving costs. Response from some of my friends is obvious – they’re not going to go to KFC (at least for a long while).
