Guys, I came across this website highlighting the cruel animal practices that are employed by KFC outlets in the west in order to ensure a steady supply of cheap chicken.
Please think twice before you rush to the nearest KFC in Nairobi to spend 500 bob on a poor chicken.
Kentucky Fried Cruelty

I don't know any other way of slaughtering chicken other than slitting the throat and dipping in hot waters to remove feathers. That is not cruelty. Tell that to the birds _literally.

OOOOHboy, have you noted how sharks in the ocean are ruthlessly eating other fish? And how those crocodiles mistreat wildbeasts as they cross river Mara? Don't we need to censure them to be eating only those that die naturally of old age. Heck, the government needs to employ the army to protect these innocent impalas, wildbeasts, hares, and tilapia from malauding lions, sharks, crocodiles and human beings.

Or can we be given a different way of 'killing' chicken

From the responses to this post, I get the impression that some Kenyans are quite intolerant of other peoples views. All Perminus was trying to say is that KFC has been found to apply cruel practices in its mass rearing and slaughter of chickens. I do not see what that has to do with Kenyans going hungry or politicians using them as bait for the 2012 elections.
@jonna, how intolerant can you be? I thought that the whole point of wazua is to exchange views in a civilised manner. Why should you heap shame on someone just for airing their opinion?
As for me, I have yet to taste any KFC dish since I've never been a fan of junk food anyway.

Next time I will take Rat and rat, yes, the POISON, give it to my chicken so that it dies without slitting(sp) its throat. Ill still feed on it ma broda OTIENO.

Back in the days,mum kept so many of them, free range style. any visitor coming would send us chasing the chickens all over the compound,under the granaries and even under the chair where the Mgeni lady was sitting (thats how I got to know ladies put on red panties, but thats a story for another day)...

We would then slit the throat of the hen, put some container for the blood to drop (mum would cook the blood for us) and phew....only then would I be sure it would be a SOUP day.

Pray that it did not rain otherwise kukus know how to duck and you'd be very muddy before u catch it. Im honestly nostalgic.

this is not limited to KFC, its all kukus that are not 'kienyeji'
BOSS -HAVE U EVER KEPT BROILER CHICKEN? that's how it rolls.
- give them broiler mash (2 months they are 3-5kg)
- get one of these drums and put hot water in them
- bring out the broilers and slit their throats and drop them in hot water
- put them out and get the feathers out
- sell them to the posh hotels u like visiting and asking for chicken!

that's how it ROLLS! if you want to protest eat vegetables.
