Default No more crispy strips at KFC!!

I was distraught beyond comprehension to be bombarded by this information.

To set the scene... I had been to not one, but TWO childrens partys, neither of which had catered for the adults, leaving myself and Mr P to practically die of starvation, yes ... DIE!
So I decide a KFC on route will do the trick.

I order the childrens meals, a banquet thing for Mr P, then I ask for my usually crispy strips, only to be told...

Woman with hair net - 'we don't DO them anymore'.

Me (thinking I didn't hear properly) - 'pardon?'

Woman in hair net - 'we don't DO them anymore'.

Me - 'I didn't hear you properly, you don't DO them anymore?'

Woman in hair net - 'No'

Me - 'well I don't want anything thank you.

Mr P - 'WHAT???'

Me - 'No'

Woman in hair net - 'you want me to cancel it all?'

Me - 'yes please'

So we drive off, and as you can imagine I was quite distressed, and cannot imagine ever going back!!!

Rewind!!!

KFC no longer do Crispy Strips? Really.

If true this is the last ****ing straw as far as I'm concerned. Global economic crisis. £1.35 per litre petrol. Small fry compared to this.

Bollocks!

What have Women and KFC got in common?

When you've finished with the Breast and Legs, all your left with is a greasy bucket to put your bone in

21 comments in and I'm suprised NOT ONE of the patented NSR "holier than thou - full of self importance" brigade haven't turned up, bollocked you for eating such drivel (naturally EVERYONE in here should shop at Waitrose and eat at the finest restaurants) and thrown some personal insults in for good measure.

NSR faithful, I am disappointed...

It might be they were discontinued in that store. Why not write in and complain. Might make no difference to them selling them again, but sometimes it's nice to have a good rant.

You get a lot of ***** working in retail. They try and be as passive aggressive/obstructionist as possible behind the counter.
