A woman who claims she found dozens of white worms wriggling inside a piece of chicken from a branch of KFC in China was dumbfounded when they offered her compensation – in the form of a free replacement meal.

Liu Tsai said she spotted the worms while eating the fifth piece of chicken from a 10-piece wings meal that she had purchased at a branch of the fast food restaurant in Guangzhou, Guangdong province.

And when the 34-year-old was offered the same meal by way of compensation, she was so angry that she rang Chinese media, who photographed the worm-filled chicken and ran a report.

‘I felt sick, and the last thing I wanted to do was eat another chicken meal from KFC,’ said Mrs Liu.




A spokesperson for KFC said they had looked into the issue and insisted the woman’s suggestion was false.

‘These claims relate to KFC China, and a story which was immediately investigated by KFC China and shown to be untrue,’ they said.

This is not the first time KFC have had the quality of their food called into question.

Just three months ago, an investigation aired showing workers at KFC suppliers Shanghai Husi Food preparing expired chicken that had been picked up off the floor.
