Never again: UK student finds 'wrinkled' organ in KFC meal

It is safe to say that most of us have happily gorged onto fried chicken from KFC. Health concerns aside, KFC is the soul food of many. But imagine the horror of finding an organ inside your beloved piece of chicken breast when all you were trying is to make your tummy happy. That’s exactly what happened to this UK student. Ibrahim Langoo found a ‘wrinkled organ’ as he bit into his piece of chicken.

The 19-year-old took a photograph of the three-inch piece of offal - later judged to be a kidney by KFC’s experts - on his mobile phone and complained to staff.” The incident has left the student scarred and he has, quite understandably, vowed to never order from KFC ever again. “The first piece was absolutely fine - I was hungry and polished it off. I have a habit of picking the chicken off the bone with my fingers, and as I pulled the second piece apart I saw this horrible wrinkled foreign body. I threw it down onto my tray immediately. It looked like a brain. I suddenly felt grim and really sick,” Langoo told The Daily Mail. He says he will now choose home cooked chicken over take-out as he can see how it is being prepared. The teenager also registered an online complaint along with the photo of the organ. KFC later apologised to him for the unfortunate incident and said the wrongdoing on their part would not cause any health risk. The Huffington Post quoted a KFC spokesperson as saying, “Although we haven’t received the product, it appears from a photograph that unfortunately on this occasion a kidney, and not a brain as claimed, was not removed in the preparation process. We’re very sorry about Mr Langoo’s experience and while there was no health risk, we agree it was unsightly.”
