    I can’t think of any dish at KFC that has mushrooms.

      KFC is also a spinoff of PepsiCo and still serves Pepsi and not Coke.

        Actually in my country, Sweden, they do serve Coke.

                Denmark could sent you our former franchise owner, Bjartmar Þrastarson. He managed to fuck it up here quite spectacularly. Even refused to shut down the stores, when HQ ordered him to.

                Basically, if I translate and summarize the articles that I linked: It came out that the locations in Denmark used a practice of re-labeling defrosted chicken with new dates to extend its shelf life. It was a widespread and routine procedure referred to by employees as “extending” the chicken. Evidence, including internal chat messages from multiple locations, showed this practice to be common over several years.

                Graphic showing some of the messages here.
                They’re in English, because some of the workers at the locations aren’t fluent in Danish.

                Making decent fried chicken to compete against them with? That’s how many places got rid of Starbucks.

                Although unlike Starbucks, Nordic KFC tastes way better than American KFC for some reason. Tried it once when it arrived in Finland to see if it was true.

      I feel like they had fried mushrooms back in the '80s, but I may be blending my memories with the IGA hot case
