A disgusted diner was left horrified when she discovered her chicken sandwich was full of giblets.

Cassandra Perkins, 22, was at the KFC branch in Wellingborough, Northants, when she noticed the meat didn’t look right.

When she pulled it open, she discovered the disgusting ‘pink’ sight which she initially thought ‘may have been brain’.

Speaking to Northampton Chronicle, Cassandra said: ‘It looked disgusting and pink, I didn’t want to touch it.


‘I first thought that it may have been brain or lung, it certainly wasn’t chicken. My burger had a hair in it as well.’

Cassandra had ordered a Zinger Tower meal and one piece of chicken for £6 at the fast-food restaurant on January 13.

She added: ‘I complained and the staff just offered to swap it for a new piece of chicken but there was no way I wanted anything coming out of that store.’



KFC have since confirmed that she did not make a formal complaint about the incident but have apologised for the incident.

A spokesman for KFC said: ‘We’re proud of the fact that our chicken is hand-prepared and cooked fresh in our kitchens.

‘Sometimes mistakes can happen and unfortunately on rare occasions, giblets are not removed when they should have been.

‘We have reminded our team members to take extra care in future, and if a customer is ever unhappy with their food we encourage them to let our team know, who will always be happy to help.’
