KFC Recipe with milk and eggs

I'm writing a complaint about KFC because they have changed their recipe - they now have milk and eggs in the chicken breading. It's not fair because my children and I are allergic to dairy and eggs and can no longer go to one of our favourite places to eat as a family. We ate KFC for years! I don't understand why they would change Colonial Saunders original recipe. He would not be very happy with this change and as someone else said, he is probably rolling over in his grave. There are a lot of people out there that are highly allergic to milk and eggs and it's not fair to be accommodating to some people and not to others. You guys must simply not care about people with severe allergies as this has not been my first complaint.

Desired outcome: Change the recipe back!!

KFC Super Dinner Meal Delivery

I've ordered for super dinner meal yesterday evening using the application and that was paid for as well. Then I got confirmation that my order is confirmed. They refused to deliver the order and when I checked the tracking it shows it is delivered. Then I called customer care, they told me to book again by paying again. I don't understand what's happening. The representative who talked to me was behaving like a cheat. He was not concerned about my issue and asked me to order and pay again. This is really disgusting.

Desired outcome: I need my ordered meal

KFC Service

On saturday after 6pm, may 1st, 2021 i went to kfc in gonzales, la. They had three cars ahead of me and two behind me. I noticed that the cars ahead of me were driving off. I sat there waiting and finally i said "hello" they said oh we are changing shifts right now it will be 20-25 minutes before we can take an order. Really!
i never heard of such. We all just drove off. That's a bad time to stop taking orders. Just frustrated...

Thanks,
cindy

I never heard of such a thing either. If they have to change shifts fine, but I though most places they would have a replacement right away. So for example if they stop working at 4 pm then the next person starts working at 4pm.

I just came to this kfc to order the spicy crispy sandwich combos with spicy sauce and extra pickles on the side. I have ordered this way at many other kfcs with no problems. I was told at this kfc that I could not order spicy sauce or pickles on the side as they had "no way to put sauce or pickles on the side." what? Really? No way??? A total and complete...

Started when I used the donation coupon book for $1.00 in Oct.2020. They started to only put I was told 2 spoons-full in the sides. I ordered a 12-piece meal that would serve 4. the menu shows it served 4 and looking at the menu photo I take it you get a full bowl. Not a heaped up bowl that I know is for show. I thought they were trying to recoup the $4.00...

Your store on US Rt 1, Woodbridge, NJ has declined in food quality. It was good. Last night I ordered your $20 Fill Up. Chicken was cold, pieces were all undersized and the quantity has been reduced drastically from my recent prior purchases. (They did not even give me a copy of my CC receipt or I would have gone back for a refund. VERY PISSED OFF CUSTOMER !

KFC Bad food

Today I went to kfc / taco bell in Lemont Illinois. I ordered 2 crunchy taco and 2 pot pies. One of the pot pies had zero chicken in it. Is there anyway I could get a replacement? I was going to call the restaurant but, they didn't give me a receipt.

KFC Chicken sandwich and pot pie

I went to KFC in Acworth I wanted the chrissy chicken sandwich and was told they were out then I wanted to order a pot pie and was told they were out. This was 4/19/21. But in the past I have had the same problem it seems no one there knows how to order so they have enough food.
I hope you can get things resolved at this store.

KFC 8 piece original bucket, 12 piece, bucket of tenders, 1 regular order of corn

Order time 2:18 pm 04/14/2021:
Store: 5615 Milgen Rd, Columbus, GA 31907, United States
Phone: +[protected]

Issues: Ordered a 12 piece tenders bucket, 8 pieces original recipe chicken bucket, and 1 order of corn. Ordered and paid for on the internet site for this store.
We were given a pickup time of 2:28 pm. We arrived at 2:38 pm and proceeded to pick up our order.
1. The first issue was we ordered (2) two buckets of chicken, but our ENTIRE order was stuffed into (1) one bucket. Which means everything to include the (2) Two full bucket orders of chicken and corn, forks, napkins, and sauces were all in one bucket.
2. We paid online with our credit card, but were not given nor offered a paper receipt when we picked up the order.
3. As you will see in the attached pictures the chicken crust if you can call it that was SAD! to say the best about it. most of the chicken was missing the crust and looked like they had given us the drags left on the counter no one else would want because our order was a pickup and they could hide its appearance under all the other things they stuff in the SINGLE bucket on top of the chicken.

Desired outcome: KFC needs to correct this stores very poor practices of combining orders in the smallestYes we would expect KFC to do something to make up for this very poor experience at one of thier stores.

When I pulled up to the drive through at 5:30 pm I asked for a chicken tender combo with fries and a chicken sandwich combo with fries. A woman said all their fryers were shut down for the night and that there was no fried chicken, fries, or anything fried. I asked what they had then and they said pot pie then simply stopped responding. So I left. So tell...

On Easter Sunday I visited KFC at 1164 Jericho TPK Commack N.Y. to pick up my wife's request for Easter dinner. The Thighs, drumsticks and breasts were dried out. The mashed potatoes were watered down paste and the gravy was seen through, and tasteless. The coleslaw was good as always. The following morning all five of us required Imodium. KFC was always a...
