    So we can have a KFC as long as they wring the neck of the chicken ourselves?

    I suspect that might well be a winner with the feral yoot of the UK 😀

    Nobody should have a KFC. The outcome of eating one is only marginally better for the person eating it than it was for the chicken.

    it’s also detrimental – in that the distance means we treat our food abominably, in ways that previously we never would have

    I agree with that. If we keep food production hidden, out of sight, there is no pressure to improve it.

    Au contraire. If you don’t love KFC gravy then theres something wrong with you. Though I wouldn’t recommend watching the channel 4 documentary on KFC which showed how it arrives at KFC stores and is turned from a solid into a liquid form

    Lets just say that the old adage is true… never let light in on magic 🙂

    Anyway… heres some yummy KFC gravy in action….

    Surely any chicken would be happy to sacrifice its short life to go out doused in that?

    I agree – because it’s designed to be like crack cocaine. And if you don’t like crack cocaine after trying it there’s something wrong with you.

    Doesn’t mean I advise you trying it 😉

    Currently reading ‘Eating Animals’ by safran foer, which discusses much of what’s being posted here – its exclusively about the US context, but as he adds in the preface, UK is headed the same way – he published the book 14 years ago and judging by the Wye valley issue we’ve maybe caught them up! It’s a good read and I’ll be interested to know what he thinks the solution should be…greater transparency, education through exposure, lab grown meat, PETA running the show, etc. ?

    I’m mostly on a plant based diet but love my poached eggs on sour dough toast so can’t quite pat myself on the back yet…
