I’m too vegan, I guess because I could never eat there. Like eating a veggie burger in a butcher shop, you can still smell the blood and death. The thought makes me sick.

No thanz.

I’m a proud member of PETA – only mine stands for People Eating Tasty Animals. I think the whole argument is assinine!

I’ll be totally honest. I really am not sure how I stumbled on to this sight and I just saw the PETA chicken video on their sight. I had no idea it was like that. My father-in-law is a “higher-up” in the corp that owns KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut. I married into the family and was totally uneducated about what they were doing. I’m not a vegitarian and I can say I could ever be a total vegan, but I DO NOT condone animal abuse and now that I am aware of what the company is allowing, I definitely won’t be eating any of the establishments.

BTW–PETA isn’t trying to “gas” the animals as an alternative. They are asking to use the controlled atmosphere method (CAK) which removes oxygen and basically gradually puts them into an eternal sleep. It is supposedly slower and more gentle and used in the UK as a preferred method. They aren’t encouraging any gassing. I’m not saying CAK is any better or worse, just stating the facts, so don’t kill the messenger.

Yeah, but just how vegan will it be, considering they’ll be cooking it with the dead chickens. And how can anyone be sure they won’t accidentally give someone the wrong sandwich?

I wouldn’t trust KFC as far as I could spit!

still wouldn’t step a foot in their crappy establishment but at least they finally put a sorta vegan option on. it took long enough. (their competitors did so long ago) also might i ask.. didn’t they also vow to try and start getting their chickens from more animal friendly farms (if there is such a thing) or did i dream that one up?

The majority of us visiting this site would never step into a KFC and I am sure that it has been many years since Pamela Anderson has entered one of them. However, as a spokesperson for PETA it is important that she show support for changes implemented in good part due to her celebrity. At least a measure of suffering has been removed from the slaughtering process and that alone is worth a visit.

Fast food restaurants love to introduce “healthy” alternatives to their menus, only to remove them months later, claiming lack of interest/orders. Anderson’s attempt at bringing publicity to the option might help us all have the chance to try the item this time around. Remember the McLean!
