Kfc And Taco Bell-not So Yummy

I am brown bagging from now on, this is crazy!


A video of rats in a New York restaurant sparks another public relations disaster for Yum Brands, parent of the fast-food restaurant chains.


Shares of the company, which owns the Taco Bell and KFC fast food chains as well as Pizza Hut, took a hit this morning after video began circulating showing rats scurrying around a KFC/Taco Bell restaurant in New York's Greenwich Village neighborhood.
The stock was down more than 1% in midday trading, at $60.36, after a customer called a local television station and tipped off the news desk to the rat problem.

I know this is disgusting, but it is the world we live in. All restaurants be it 5 stars or 1 star have a rodent/insect problem to a certain degree. Of course the classier the restaurant the less of a problem it is.

We all know they're there, but I'll agree no one wants to see it.

Thanks for the heads up.

It hurt me a lilttle bit to find out about the Taco bell sanitation issues. I really enjoyed their mexican pizzas lol. However, hurt as I may be I am not surprised. The fast food industry is the pits. If you dont get sick from thier lack of cleanliness that terrible ingredients they use in thier foods will finish you off. The FDA is supposed to protect us from harmful chemicals and unclean practices however just like the rest of the government the can easily be swayed to approve a harmul food of drug if the price is right.

Its time to start growing for ourselves.
