JSngry Posted October 27, 2003 Report Posted October 27, 2003 She makes very good points (no pun intended), but is not necessarily the most, uh..."credible" spokesperson on this matter... Pamela Anderson Wants to Meet KFC Heads Oct 27, 2:58 PM (ET) NEW YORK (AP) - Pamela Anderson wants to meet with the chief executive officer of Kentucky Fried Chicken's parent company to discuss what she calls "reasonable, positive changes for KFC's chickens." The former star of "Baywatch" and "V.I.P." faxed a letter Monday to David Novak of Yum! Brands Inc., asking to talk about animal-welfare guidelines that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is recommending. Anderson, a spokeswoman for the animal-rights group, called for a boycott of the fast-food chain a few weeks ago. NAACP President Kweisi Mfume and Paul McCartney also have joined the PETA-led criticism of the company. "I must admit from the outset that I can't understand why a company that claims to care about animal welfare would continue to allow chickens to be bred and drugged to be so top-heavy that they can barely walk, to be gathered in a manner that breaks their wings and beaks, and to be scalded to death or drowned in feather-removal tanks," she wrote in the letter, which PETA released. KFC spokeswoman Bonnie Warschauer said Monday that executives with Yum! Brands hadn't seen the letter, and she declined comment on Anderson's request. Quote

Jazzmoose Posted October 28, 2003 Report Posted October 28, 2003 Oh come on, Chris don't be such a boo--wait a minute... Quote
chris olivarez Posted October 28, 2003 Report Posted October 28, 2003 As Steve Allen used to say-"All seriousness aside"if KFC really does that it takes barbarity to a brand new level. I haven't consumed any KFC for awhile and if this is the case I might not ever do it again and that's about a bajillion calories and chlosterol that I won't miss either. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 28, 2003 Report Posted October 28, 2003 I'm not much on fast food anyway; I think I've been to KFC once in the last ten years. If we're organizing a boycott, I don't think they'll notice me missing... Quote

The funny thing is, you're about to see a new KFC advertising campaign, predicated on the *health* benefits of eating their chicken. I kid you not! I think one of the tag lines references Atkins diet people because if you're following a low carb-high protein diet, fried chicken's a great choice! Quote

AfricaBrass Posted October 28, 2003 Report Posted October 28, 2003 If she's so worried about top-heavy chickens, she needs to help this guy out. Ol' Mayor McCheese must have a terrible back. Quote
