THE PITCH

KFC, your chicken is so tasty. Your biscuits are so buttery. Your colonel is so regal. You’re hard not to like.

But maybe you could be just a little nicer to your animals? By all accounts, you’re the worst of your breed. McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s — they’ve all taken steps to treat animals better. But you just won’t budge! Your own animal welfare board made some recommendations that were estimated by your COO to raise the cost of a meal by a meager $0.02 cents. We’re asking that you adopt those changes.

Not Just Another KFC Boycott

This is a bit different from the other petitions, boycotts, etc. on the Web. For one thing, we’re all KFC customers. That being the case, we’re not about to give up KFCunless it’s actually going to make a difference. So rather than boycott now, we’re collecting the support we need: one mi Read More

This is the average way of treating chickens. It doesn’t matter if its for kfc or if its the chicken you buy at the grocery store. So if you truly are an animal lover you would choose not to eat meat period. The kfc issues is no different then only blaming mcdonalds for america being fat. Just singling out one company is dumb… welcome to factory farming.

    You’re right! KFC isn’t the only company to kill chickens for food, but KFC’s methods are far worse than their competitors. That’s what this is about. We’re not asking them to stop killing chickens, we’re just asking them to not abuse the chickens while they are alive and find a better way of processing them.

That being the case, we’re not about to give up KFCunless it’s actually going to make a difference. So rather than boycott now, we’re collecting the support we need — one million KFC customers — to deliver a loss of business that outweighs the cost of improved animal treatment. Once we have it, the boycott will begin.

A million people is a lot. It will take some time to get there. But we selected that number not based upon what is immediately attainable, rather, what is necessary to force a solution to this issue once and for all.

    Judith, i congratulate and commend you for being vegan. I wish the whole world was vegan. Unfortunately, meat is entrenched in the vast majority of human’s diets. So please, rather than ejaculate your puritan lifestyle to us, suggest some ways we can make the world vegan.

OK, I am one of the biggest advocates for the humane treatment of ALL animals. I must admit though that I have recently read some interesting articles on Kentucky Fried Chicken (which I have boycotted for years) and it appears to me that they may have changed their ways! Don’t take my word for it…just go to their website and check out their Animal Welfare articles. If I am wrong, gulible, or what ever, please fill free to let me know. Nicely tho’ please. I’m a good person, just checking things out. Thank-you for your time. I will continue to boycott until I hear from some of you good people who are also seeking the truth.
