kfc_urine_sticker.jpg We at PETA like to say that cruelty is the secret ingredient in KFC's buckets (what, with chickens being tormented before they're killed and abused in other horrific ways). But it turns out that at one KFC, there was another secret ingredient: urine.

Yep, you read that right: Chicken was urinated on before being sold to a customer. Feeling peckish? (That's British for "hungry"—geddit?)

A Nebraska police officer and his family have won $40,000 from a KFC outlet that served them food tainted by an employee's spit and urine. The couple sued the offending company when their two sons, 4 and 7 at the time, became ill (one violently ill) after they ate the food. The younger boy vomited for hours and was hospitalized for gastroenteritis and dehydration.

The lawsuit also stated that "[e]mployees maintained 'special servings' of food reserved for ... officers. The 'special servings' had been urinated in or spit in by KFC/Taco Bell employees. In fact, defendant's employees maintained a particular serving pan for use in creating 'special servings' of food plus employee urine."

Finger licking good? I'll pass.

July is now officially non sequitir month. What does this have to do with animal cruelty?

Posted by: Christopher Cochran MD | July 16, 2008 10:11 AM

That is just disgusting! I hope the employees face major consequences for what they did.

Is this what the Colonel Sanders had in mind? I bet he is rolling over in his grave as we speak!

This KFC story reminds me of my pre-vegan college days and one particular experience at a Jack-in-the-Box.
My friend and I had a late night craving for breakfast sandwiches and drove to a Jack-in-the-Box in Chico, California. After encountering a very rude drive-thru employee and receiving our snack, we parked in the parking lot and unwrapped our sandwiches. After taking our first bite, we looked at each other in horror, both wondering what the foul taste was in both of our food (we ordered different types of sandwiches). We turned the car light on and opened them up and found a thick layer of creamy whitish liquid. Neither of our sandwiches were supposed to come with ANY sort of sauce at all. Since we were still in the parking lot, we turned around to look at the drive-thru window to find literally FOUR employees practically falling out of the window hysterically laughing at us (because of the light in the car they could see everything). It was completely obvious to my friend and I what was ejected and placed in our food (trust me, there was no question about that).
I returned to complain the next day, sure that the day manager would care, but was wrong. After several fruitless attempts to AT LEAST get my money back, I gave up, swearing off Jack-in-the-Box forever!

I don't really think this is a case against just KFC, but against ALL fast food joints that have unskilled, young or immigrant people as employees.
That's just sick and wrong and I hope these people get some professional help.

Once again KFC reputation precedes them.

BOYCOTT KFC!

I would to receive e-mail updates on animal rights. If you have access to vegetarian recipes I'd like to recieve those as well.

Posted by: Bill Dravis | July 16, 2008 02:03 PM

well im all about helping animals but wat does humans peeing on chicken then serving it have to do with animal abuse???

Posted by: deanna | July 16, 2008 02:18 PM

Ewww, who would do such things? I hate KFC food, its down right horrible!

Posted by: Holly | July 16, 2008 02:36 PM

Police officers regularly put their lifes on the line for us every day. Often they are abused by self centered lowlifes who have no regard for the law or anyone else. Would YOU want to walk up to a stopped car not knowing who or what awaits you? The scumbag employees of that KFC should be charged with assaulting police officers. Police officers deserve our respect whether or not you agree with the laws they enforce.

Posted by: Ken, New Hartford, NY | July 16, 2008 02:42 PM

what they do to the chickens is afful then the secret ingredent is urine!!!1 what is wrong with these people?

Posted by: animal lover | July 16, 2008 03:35 PM

I THINK THIS IS HORRIBLE! KFC SHOULD JUST BE PUT OUT OF BUISNESS SINCE THEY TORTURE THERE ANIMALS AND NOW THEY PUT THE "SPECIAL" INGREDIENT IN THE FOOD. THATS JUST HORRIBLE AND NASTY!

Posted by: Sammi | July 16, 2008 05:18 PM

This store did nothing wrong. Urine was not part of the case. It was spit and the cop who started all of this is an asshole. This store did nothing wrong. This cop is known for doing drugs himself.

Posted by: citizen of sidney nebraska | July 16, 2008 05:31 PM

this did not happen. I know it.

Posted by: scott | July 16, 2008 05:33 PM

KFC was my first job when I was 15, I boycotted them a LONG time ago based on the things I saw go on in the store. At the moment, I have not eaten at a KFC in 16 years.

Posted by: B. Oklahoma | July 16, 2008 05:42 PM

That's so grotty! My friend was eating KFC chicken and it had pus all through it. She's vowed never to eat it again!

Posted by: Sarah | July 16, 2008 06:01 PM

Lola:

The fact is that young, unskilled or immigrant employees have absolutely nothing to do with urine or other fluids on restaurants' food. It all comes down to one thing: education and values, which only count individually for each person. In general, you make it sound like those people are responsible for the dirty things that happen at fast food restaurants, and you are forgetting that specially "IMMIGRANTS" are the ones who take care of all the dirty and hardest jobs that people at the USA aren't willing to accept. You should think about that.

Posted by: Pamela | July 16, 2008 06:46 PM

Hey LOLA, what the hell do "immigrant people" have to do with this you dumbass?? Its the managers fault for hiring immature employees such as these! Age, sex, religion, ethnicity or LEGAL STATUS, etc..have nothing to do with fast foods negativity, GROW A BRAIN, YOU IGNORANT!!!

Posted by: ceci | July 16, 2008 07:04 PM

i know for a fact this is a satan lie kfc does not do this and certainly not Taco bell pick on someone else and next time try the truth

Posted by: lucille suggs | July 16, 2008 08:10 PM

First of all, the officer is actually a Lt., and is a very well respected person in the community. The "citizen of sidney" is obviously hiding being their lie, since they can't even give thier name. It is probably some dirtbag that has been arrested numerous times in the past, imagine that...

Posted by: grow up "citizen of sidney" | July 16, 2008 11:25 PM

I think the boys should be forced by the courts to urinate on there own food and eat it. Then they will possibly learn a different way to express there anger at others. I also believe they need to ride around with the officers for a few days and see what a tough job it is to be a police officer. They might possibly learn What goes around comes around!!! Or what comes out is not suppose to be recycled.

Posted by: Anita | July 17, 2008 01:01 AM

This happens in Australian fast food outlets too. I have heard stories about local KFC's. I guess that it may have to do with the way the young people that work at KFC are treated as employees. The company culture perhaps?

Posted by: Ben Queensland | July 17, 2008 02:41 AM

I worked for KFC and they get their chicken from Tyson. They just buy it, Tyson abuses them. Not KFC. Morons...

TYSON HANDLES THE CHICKENS NOT KFC! WHAT THE FUCK?

Posted by: Faggle | July 17, 2008 02:49 AM

gross..
i cant believe that jack-in-the-box story in the comments..
fast food is terrible, mass distribution of any product goes right down the drain.
anything that isn't produced locally that once had feelings and was alive shouldn't be mass distributed to other states.
since I'm not ready to stop eating beef I'm just going to stick to local small meat markets that buy their meat locally.
the saddest part is that the majority of people aren't even informed.

Posted by: elijah | July 17, 2008 03:47 AM

this is just disgusting and how can people sit there and claim that this did not happen .... he won the law suit remember!!! poor little kids getting sick, that's not fair. Meanwhile it just makes me hate KFC even more. by the way Lola what does immigrants have to do with this case!!!

Posted by: rubby | July 17, 2008 08:20 AM

Okay I know you're all about the complete destruction of KFC.

But come on.

Yes it's nasty and yes the employees should have the book thrown at them. But stop acting like it's a disease only KFC employees get from being round the chickens. It happens ANYWHERE young punks with no respect for anyone work.

AND...don't think they're partial to just meat products either.

Another pointless jab from PETA.


Posted by: Tabitha | July 17, 2008 09:22 AM

KFC is absolutely disgusting, they mistreat animals and load up their foods with saturated fats that is contributing to the world wide obesity epidemic. Pamela Anderson went to Australia and protested on behalf of PETA denouncing KFC's mistreatment of animals. All good except she was paid by KFC to visit Australia. She should donate the 500,000 USD she received from KFC to PETA.

hi

you posted a blog on 16th july at 11:47, which mentions immigrants...immigrant or not, anyone can do this type of tragic behaviour. I was very offended when I read that... could it please be taken off the site as I feel it to be offensive and racist!

thank you!

Posted by: Monica Kershaw | July 17, 2008 10:26 AM

For the first time in months, "Dr." Breen has said something intelligent - urine is indeed sterile, barring an infection of the urinary tract. I supppose if the employee had a severe E. coli induced bladder infection, theoretically one could get ill from consuming something covered in the urine. The E. coli, however, would have to be enterotoxin producers, which is rare in UTI's.

More likely than not, the family got sick from Staph aureus food poisoning, given the quick onset of the illness.

Now, don't get me wrong, I completely abhor KFC, based on their unethical business practices, unhealthy menu, and continued support of (not to mention direct financing through purchases) animal cruelty. The world would be a better place without KFC and most every fast-food chain.

Posted by: Derek | July 17, 2008 10:45 AM

A couple of things to say about this.

1 - What does this ahve to do with animal cruelity?

2 - Not to say that this is right but this is not something that is that new. You hear about it on the news ever now and again. I used to work at McDonalds and one night when we were working the drive through, a cop drove through and one of the guys spit into a cop's drink. Its not something I would have done but some people do it. I'm not sure its necessarily a problem with the company, though they do need to find some way to keep things like this from happening.

Posted by: Lillian | July 17, 2008 12:32 PM

personally, i hate kfc the few times i ate there before i went vegan were sickening i got greasy discustingn food and im not surprised at what that officer went through because i have been sick from there food as well i got the stomach flu 2 time from eating there and what those poor defenseless birds go thru when there are alternatives is tragic at best i am glad to say that i wont be eating kf cruelty ever

Posted by: Jesse Ayala | July 17, 2008 01:47 PM

That is absolutely disgusting, Yet another reason why not to eat at KFC.

Posted by: Lisi | July 17, 2008 02:10 PM

this is just another act of blatant disregard for what once was a living sentient animal that has now been reduced to nothing more than a nugget and now on top of that they have to go and urinate on the damn thing. what is wrong with people?

Posted by: david | July 17, 2008 03:15 PM

thats nothing. ever been to a rest area bathroom. i had a friend who ejaculated in the liquid soap all the time

Posted by: gabe | July 17, 2008 03:26 PM

this has nothing to do with animal cruelty. You guys just have a bug up your ass over KFC. I love their chicken, and hope they keep on killin', because it's delicious.

Posted by: Robert | July 17, 2008 04:25 PM

KFC is so GROSS!

Okay, so my brother just got home with KFC, and their are FEATHERS in most of the chicken!! anEw its really gross the feathers are all poking out of the sides of the chicken.

ew nasty! :P

Posted by: Fillie | July 17, 2008 04:51 PM

for those who asked. You're right this doesnt have anything to do with animal rights or cruelty. However, PETA is just proving once again how much KFC really SUCKS... :) i havent eaten there for years just for the reason of it tastes like garbage.

Posted by: Tara* | July 17, 2008 04:52 PM

Well, the email I got from KFC is a lie then! LOL! I don't eat KFC anymore since I saw the Peta video.

I sent KFC:

"I would like to know where you purchase your chicken from and how they are treated. I have seen the disturbing US videos of the
factories and have stopped purchasing food from KFC, joined by my friends and family. If you could please send me some more information, I would really appreciate it. Thanks. Rachael"

They replied:

Posted by: alyce | July 17, 2008 05:33 PM

I know a person that worked in Mcdonalds and bragged about peeing in the pickles. He was upset over his low pay and hours. I told him he should have gotten another job instead. Kids ate there for goodness sakes. He laughed about it.

Posted by: me | July 17, 2008 05:37 PM

but you would say that wouldn't you 'Rob' because you've never experienced being crippled and barely bieng able to move.. because of hte food you'd been forced to eat has caused you to be that way.. or thrown and rammed into delivery truck with full force and have some bones broken too in the process..
KFC is just part of hte problem.. thousands of supermarkets stock up on these 'cheaply' reared birds.. and people buy them .. as they buy KFC chickens.. as you say.. KFC 'has nothing to do with animal cruelty'.. well if you insist.. you ARE entitled to your own opinion!


Posted by: yvonne | July 17, 2008 06:45 PM

Gabe, you are an utterly disgusting ignorant person! Would you like to be skinned alive or have ur neck cut open while you were awake, or someone cut your fingertips off or have your nails taken out? I know you'll try to be a smart a-- and say yeah but you know inside you wouldn't. God gave us animals to eat, yeah we all know that, but he must be really sad with all this crap going on! I HATE KFC SO BADLY! Go to girlsense.com/boutiques/Nady911 and look at my anti-KFC campaign on there! Join girlsense and buy my shirts to let people know KFC is terrible and advertise this PETA.com and GoVeg.com so we could get KFC to stop this!

Posted by: Nadia | July 17, 2008 07:07 PM

Lola, what you said was racist.


Grace, could you post a link from a reliable source to prove this. Somehow I really, REALLY doubt the boy would eat chicken that was urinated on, especially considering that kids that age are very "honest" an would spit the food out or tell his parents the food is "Yucky" or some other typical 4-year-old-kid word. And like Dr. Breen said, the urine would've been sterile or the the person who urinated on it would have some disease. I dunno this whole thing seems very fishy (no anti-PETA pun intended).

Posted by: Zeta | July 17, 2008 07:27 PM

Well,... Who would ever want to hear THAT?!!! When my mom, Aunt Kathy, Grandma, my uncle and I would get together on Sundays, they mostly had KFC Trans Fat food!! I wouldn't eat eat or even go near it, no matter how pressured or guilty I was to feel. They'd always get sick within 2 months afterward, but didn't seem to care or notice that their food, coke (plus, my grandma and uncle smoked badly), smoke and cleaning substances, all-together-always, each individual time, would cause that!! Of course I cared!!! The rest of their meal would be mashed potatoes with milk in it, bitter gravy from almost surloin beef, but with lots of gooey fat, Land O' Lakes Salted stick butter, and maybe corn. Then, they'd have dessert, usually ice cream with chocolate syrup. Many times, for a change, they'd have a bacon cheeseburger from Mcdonalds or Bob Evan's junky breakfast foods there. Except for my Aunt Kathy, they loved wine, TV and candy, too. I did not belong for the real part, but would be patient anyway. When my mom goes out to eat, she gets Italian Wedding Soup from Zappetelli's. I still worry about her.

Posted by: Anna | July 17, 2008 07:31 PM

I will tell you what this story has to do with animal abuse. This story represents what PETA stands for ...ABUSE! Does it matter that in this instance it happened to humans? I think not. What this indeed tells us is that KFC is an abusive company with low moral standards and I for one would never step foot into the place...period! Shame on you KFC for being one of the leaders in obnoxious, wretched behavior.Oh, and thanks for turning even the die hard carnivores vegan!!

Posted by: Lora | July 17, 2008 07:33 PM

Oh, and another thing, I don't know TOO much about things like this so don't bash me if I'm wrong, all I want is some valid, believable, proof

I think immigrants have nothing to do with the disgusting-ness of the workers. I totally agree with sarah and everyone else who commented about the immigrants

KFC is disgusting. Their employees are disgusting. My dad is a police officer, and if that ever happened to us, you know I would be right there next to my dad in that KFC and court room. I'm from New Orleans, you don't mess with girls like us. It's just amazing how some people have the audacity to do such stupid things. Fast food places in general are just terrible and I'm so glad that I do not have to deal with them anymore. They are DISGUSTING!!

Posted by: Bonnie | July 18, 2008 12:03 AM

Okay, ewww! Gabe, grow up and get a life. If you do not support PETA's thoughts about KFC, don't go on the site! Before I went vegan, I used to go to Kentucky Fried Cruelty. One day, we went to eat there, and there was a rat running on the floor! A few days later, the place had to be closed for being full of rats!!! DISGUSTING!

Posted by: Katie | July 18, 2008 01:14 AM

I know PETA do over do it and some times its too much.
but they do have a point. May be they dont need to rub it in so much, but i guess some one has to. and about the KFC thing, I had a burger at KFC one and there was a cyst in the chicken breast and it burst in my mouth. Pussy chicken with KFC's 7 herbs and spices! yummm. I was horrified and have not been able to eat KFC or chicken for about 8 yrs now.

Posted by: hetesg | July 18, 2008 03:42 AM

I can't believe people are asking what's this got to do with animal abuse! Would you like to be urinated on before you get tortured and killed? They obviously haven't seen the videos of KFC staff kicking the poor chickens and abusing them.

Posted by: Mellisa | July 18, 2008 05:45 AM

Guys, there's an association factor to consider. This case has NOTHING to do with animal cruelty, but it leaves a bad taste in your mouth concerning KF (no pun intended). Ever go to a restaurant and get horribly sick, or have the restroom be completely filthy and that experience just completely turned you off to the restaurant? Same idea: people read a story about some random guy at a KFC peeing on sandwiches, maybe it sticks in your mind and the next time you're looking for a place to eat, you hit up the BK or somewhere instead of KFC.

Capiche?

Posted by: Miah | July 18, 2008 08:22 AM

Who cares? Seriously PETA, you're making yourself look stupid when you make a big fuss about things like this. If a green grocer pissed on some apples, would that make apples the new evil?

Posted by: arbuser | July 18, 2008 08:57 AM

I worked in a RESTAURANT,NOT a fast food place at all,not a chain of them,etc.I once seen the girl working in the kitchen get mad because somebody sent back a sandwich(she had left something off of it)& she done something "along those lines".I told her that if that was mine or I KNEW FOR A FACT someone had done that to food me or mine were going to be eating,that well......she would eat S%$# when I was done with her.And I would to ANYBODY that tampered w/my food in a nasty ass way like that.That is sick & repulsing.I'm gladddddd I eat @ home these days most of the time.

Posted by: sonya | July 18, 2008 09:42 AM

I actually just read a story about a guy in England who went to a grocery story with a spray bottle filled with urine and sprayed in on the produce.

I read another story where a man did the same thing to a SALAD BAR.

So. We banning produce departments and salad bars now?

AGAIN, PLEASE, I'm NOT condoning what the idiots did AT ALL...but do not insult our intelligents by insinuating it just happens at KFC just because it's your flavor of the month.

Posted by: Tabitha | July 18, 2008 12:16 PM

Lola,

It's seems to be that you have more anger on immature people and immigrants in general. Only some one who wants attention would put stupid comment like yours grow up woman. We should boycott your ass and KFC.

Posted by: Aurora Navarro | July 18, 2008 03:35 PM

KFC is hell for chickens. We all have to face it. Hey maybe if are supposed to go to hell maybe god will just make you a chicken and give you to KFC. Now would you like that?! I didnt think so... No offence to whatever religion your in =^)

Posted by: Jack the vegan | July 18, 2008 10:55 PM

dear "grow up citizen of sidney"

Just for the record....urine is NOT sterile when it leaves the urethra...urine is ONLY sterile in the bladder and once it leaves the bladder any type of bacteria in the urinary tract could get into the actual fluid (urine) ALSO...Clear urine is NOT just water...the urine contains natural bacteria and electrolytes no matter what color it is. Your kidneys filter the liquid in your body and send the bad stuff out via the urine...therefore it could contain MANY different things.

Posted by: Britteny | July 18, 2008 11:58 PM

We stopped eating dead animals when my daughter learned the truth from PETA, the ASPCA,the Humane Society of the United States, the Humane Farming a Association, the Discovery Channel, etc. etc. when she was nine. I never really liked it; when I was a kid my father forced me to eat it, and eventually I believed the lies about protein and all that other crap and served dead animals to my family. The cats ate alot of cooked dead animals from our table. They, and my husband are the only ones that miss it. We buy Morning Star, Bocca Brands, Amy's, Yves, etc veggie brands--there are lots more and I thank God that we no longer participate in the Holocaust of the animals and I wish I had never bought and served it. I have printed lots of graphic photos for my daughter to show and tell at school because she faced awful ridicule and torment when she became vegan and a picture really is worth a thousand words.My motto and my car plates is GO PETA!!!!

Posted by: cynthia krokey | July 19, 2008 09:45 AM

I have never been a vegan or vege nor will I ever, but i have never had macdonalds or kfc or subway,,the only fast food i have had and like is krispy kremes and pizzas, which i treat myself too. once and awhile, the chicken factories should be ashamed of themselves and I hope karma comes back to get them and they return as a chicken and is treated the same way, people who do bad things,will have back things happen and i truly hope they the people the feel they need to spit or pee on food it happens to them. karma works in mysteries ways. just as nautre intended and if we didnt have stupid people doing stupdid things noone would have nothing to complain about.

Posted by: taralee | July 20, 2008 12:56 AM

Personally, I avoid even going near these so-called restaurants because I have never seen one that was clean and for me, hygiene around food is critical. I have also heard many shock stories such as one from a friend, who got a family meal for a birthday and sat down to eat as her grandmother screamed and spat out maggots that had infested their "fresh is better" food. Just like those poor little boys, she was very sick for an extended period of time.

For those who say that you can't blame the company for the behaviour of the employees, you are obviously not very friendly with the ideas of business. It is entirely the responsibility of the overall company and then the managers to control what happens in the store. That is known as the chain of command and the flow of communication in KFC's is less than desirable.

While on the topic of who to blame, Lola, the blame can not simply be ignorantly placed on to "immigrants". I think you will find most of these people have far higher morales and values than you yourself have displayed in that comment.

Whether or not this story is related to animal abuse (and as another person commented, it rather is as it is about the abuse of another human being) it is disgusting and just adds to the terrible culture building around KFC.

To those that say that KFC isn't at fault for purchasing chicken that has been abused, lets use a little example. Say I want X killed, and I go to a hitman and say "will you please kill X in the most horrific and painful way you can think of" and give the hitman money for doing the job. Is that not my responsibility? Would I not go to jail? It is the same situation with KFC and their choice in suppliers. If KFC had as much influence as the board members wished it did, then they would stand against this and make changes. If KFC stood up and told its suppliers their contracts would be cut if humane policies were not put into place, it is clear they would listen.

Finally, everyone has a right to make their own choices in life however, if you are choosing to be ignorant to cruelty and just want to spam the site because it boosts your self esteem in some pathetic way, you need to get a new hobby. I doubt anyone will be swayed by your 'wit'.

Posted by: Natalia Carson | July 20, 2008 07:06 PM

We're stupid for pointing out not EVERY chicken is served with urine?

Posted by: Tabitha | July 21, 2008 12:49 PM

I have been concerned with animal rights for a long time. along with my pledge not to disrespect animals i also feel we should not disrespect humans. i totally agree what these employees did was wrong and sickening. But i have come across some VERY disrepectful police officers and i am in the medical field. I have been treated very rude by a few so maybe this officer was one of them. Even though its still not an excuse to pee in food.

Posted by: Darcy | July 22, 2008 01:19 PM

People are animals too. And by posting this PETA is just showing their compassion for all life and how horrible KFC is.

Posted by: bri | July 23, 2008 01:20 AM

Cynthia,

With all due respect, it is animal abuse to take meat away from a cat. Your companion animal has blindness and heart failure to look forward to in the future with a vegetarian diet.

Don't take my word for it, ask any veterinarian.

I always tell people, if you don't want to buy meat, don't have a cat.

KFC is a dispicable and horrific restaurant, if you wish to call it so....its ceo's as well as all board members and employees should be treated as the animals they torture. Got to hell KFC!!

Cynthia: I would be interested in finding out what you feed your cats. I want to look for a vegan cat food for mine, but have not had a chance to do any research. Have you found something that your cats like?

this has nothing to do with the company as a whole. one store was disgusting enough to carry this on, but that doesn't mean that all KFC chicken has urine on it.
