Sorry to bother you good folks, about this, but I was just wondering. KFC are closing and re-opening a lot of branches lately. I just wondered if anyone else has noticed or can confirm that the real reason for doing this is nothing to do with "delivery problems", but rather the fact that they have to completely empty all of their storage facilities of Non-Halal Meat, before they can put Halal Meat in there...?
(The thing about Halal Meat is that it is not supposed to be with other Meat.)
I live in London, and KFCs which did not sell Halal Meat before, sell it now, I think, but it is Hot and so I cannot check this myself. I only post this now because when summer is over, this business will likely be over as well. What happens to this Thread after my saying this does not really matter, for I am only wondering if anyone else has noticed this. (There should be a little symbol upon a front door/window saying "HMC Certified", or something, which was not there before.)
...Perhaps I should add somethings in order to stave off potential argument/controversy/hatred/whatnot...
I only posted this to wonder if anyone else noticed. I did not start this Thread to discuss Religion or Halal Meat (!) - I could just as easily have posted: "KFC used to sell Polka-dot Meat, but now they are selling Stripey Meat, has anyone else noticed?" or something. I have nothing against Halal or Kosher or Religions, it is all matter-of-fact to me. I just posted this for now, sorry...
Here are some links (!):

They clearly see an oppprtunity to bring those who eat halal meat into the vast fast food empire, as a way of increasing their fortunes and they clearly see them as a big part of their profit margain going forward. Very interesting. Thanks for posting. I know that many people I know are trying to stay away from fast food as they are making efforts to increase their health so maybe this is a common trend and halal eaters have yet to be poisoned by the fast food industry so they are clearly the people to target next. I didn’t realise so many people are taking more responsibility for their health, if this is the case. If it is then it’s a great sign.
