Bit random but tonight I read in the paper about some women getting raw chicken for her meal.
Ironic that we had KFC last night. Well I didnt but mum,dad and Josh had it.Josh has almost within a few hours of eating the KFC a really bad tummy. I just took it as normal, told him it was ok ect.
However, I just got home, my dad has been sent home sick as a parrot, chucking up everywhere, Josh has had numerous bad nappy's and it isnt stopping and mum is in bed starting to feel poorly.
It just seems weird that there all Ill after the KFC, so what do I do?
We have one peice of chicken in the fridge. It looks cooked to me but I cant find a main contact to KFC HQ.
Also, what do I stay? If mum and dad are ill they can deal with it them selfs if they need togo to Hospital ect etc but with Josh its a little bit harder as he cant say what he feels.
I am, just a tad worried.
I obviously cant confirm that it is the chicken as it dose look cooked but, thats all they have eaten in the past 36 hours Confused

You'll need to take them to hospital first to have blood tests etc to see if they do have Food Poisoning, then they will see if it could be linked to the chicken.

I would inform the KFC you bought it from immediately, so they can stop cooking the chickens there incase there is widespread contamination.

If it turns out the food poisoning did come from KFC, then sue them, i'm pretty sure KFC won't want a food poisoning case out in the public, very bad PR. You will probably end up pretty rich, just tell em if they don't meet your demands you will go the national rag or something.

Places like KFC should make sure their chickens are cooked thoroughly, if it just so happens that they were just unlucky then bad luck, I only go KFC cause the crispy outside is so heavenly, the battery hens look like they have never had any exercise.

Get them checked out, better be on the safe side...
my dad use to have a shop right next to a KFC and they cant have been meeting food hygiene laws. Rubish everywhere and a serious rat problem, that i know was in their kitchens too. The shop my dad had shared the same car park etc and sadly the rats were so bad they came into dads shop (didnt have any food etc on premisses). This apparently was not a local thing and was happaning at other KFCs. Sad

I thought chicken products are usually pre cooked, then just fried in an oil vat from frozen then served, this means its virtually impossible to get food poisoning?

Maybe kfc don't do it this way but tis how they do it at maccy ds.
