    I’d ban KFC because it’s absolutely vile. How people can stick that filth in their mouths is beyond me.

    I’d never eaten any KFC, ever. Then, late one night we were very late home, very tired and my son suggested we call in at KFC for tea so I agreed and we ate it sat in the car.

    One mouthful later and I threw my guts up in the carpark. It was more disgusting than bovril and fish mixed together.

    If it doesn’t smell, eat it where you like. If it smells, eat it in the canteen / kitchen. In either case, clean up after yourself.

    Really not difficult, this one.

    When i was doing my apprenticeship was told i could only drink 1 of my 4 pints of milk a shift during tea breaks.

    Then when i went to work in the great NHS, they had just got a new manager, who recinded the rule of no kettles in departments, bring a flask or go to the canteen fotr a cup of tea.

    A ocal police station, theyre not allowed kettles need to use the communal tea machine 1 per floor , no food only in canteen,

    And this kids is why eating food at your keyboard is a bad idea, it causes the crumbs to get trapped under keys and difficult to press.

    As I recall things, the Employer must provide the means to make a hot drink. If hot food is available nearby there is no requirement to provide means to heat food. Eating place away from desk is only required where the desk is in an area “visited” by the public. Otherwise, eating at the desk is the norm, though not best practice. I don’t think “food” is defined so it may even apply to KFC:-)

    Does your Employer provide an oven and/or an eating area?

    There needs to be an area for eating that does not include you desk.

    what the hell are you doing in your sad little offices that means that you can’t possibly leave your grubby little desks for a break and some sustenance

    earning a crust…
    if I eat at my desk, and work through lunch it means I can leave work earlier and get home to see my son before he goes to bed.
    time poverty is rife.

    I don’t get why anyone would want to buy their food in a bucket, animals are fed from buckets not humans.

    A woman in my office ran out screaming the day that someone had heated up some fish in the microwave…….she was of her tits on Champix at the time which might explain things

    Sorry, I’m struggling to understand how KFC can be so vile it makes you puke.

    It’s chicken, and batter. I can’t see what’s wrong with either of those things. Ok so you get the odd bit of fatty skin in it, but that’s no different to roast chicken.

    Employers have to provide a way to heat food

    Unless there’s a canteen, I assume?

    Chicken and batter, fine. The colonels secret sauce, vile. Whatever he puts in it, tastes like knob cheese stirred into an old chip pan.

    as above KFC is a bit greasy but its just fried chicken if you find that revolting you should see what people have to eat to survive.
    It isnt the greatest food but there are much worse such as most premade sandwiches

    Today my place of work served smoked trout, stuffed peppers(rice and mushroom) pots with butter, salad and brownie for desert. All grown on site, including the trout and freshly cooked. Plus it’s free to employees.

    Even the queen and prime minister take lunch, what the hell are you doing in your sad little offices that means that you can’t possibly leave your grubby little desks for a break and some sustenance? it must be VERY important.

    Eating whilst I do work, so that I can go training in my lunch break.

    KFC should be banned on the basis it’s not got any nutrition in it, and is therefore useless as food! Very good at making you fat tho, if that’s what you want to be

    I see the issue here… You work in an office.

    I however, work in a steel/titanium extrusion. Were allowed to cook pizzas and stuff in the dye oven.

    One bloke did get a verbal warning once though for cooking eggs in a frying pan which was laid on top of one of the titanium bars whilst it was heating up.

    Tell me, what caused you to try knob cheese stirred into an old chip pan so that you could compare the two?

    Hungry? Supercharger Burger & double fries. Nom*

    Agree their chicken pieces are fairly inedible.

    *Followed by bloated chicken sweats.

    Week one, day one of apprenticeship,

    Bend a tig rod back on forth on itself to make a heating element. Put one end into the stick welding torch. Arc it onto the bench on low juice.

    Make toast.

    would anyone admit to liking the bucket chicken?
    I like a tower burger every now and then, but I’ve had the bucket chicken once and it was utterly disgusting. Given that I was half cut at the time, I dread to think what it would taste like sober.

    KFC chips are rank, I’ll give you that, but a Zinger Tower is awesome. It’s got a hash brown in it for god’s sake. Hash browns make anything absolutely turbo awesome.
