Why am I not shocked that the girl who drove into a curb and blamed the curb is saying this lawsuit is a good thing. ---

Mmm… Personally I’m quite fond of a heart attack on a bone. Granted there are better oils, but that would ruin the best part. The unhealthy taste that makes it so good. :tup: ---

I do believe you’ve missed the entire point of the case. The use of these oils is not necessary and creates a threat to consumer health. This suit is asking that either a) KFC use non-hydrogenated oils or b) consumers are warned AT the place of purchase of its health risks. Much like the warning label on cigarettes. I don’t see how suing a company for putting its consumers health at risk without cause is a “BS lawsuit” You’re pissed because people may end up getting money for suing over an “obvious” issue. Aside from the lawsuit why are you not angry with KFC for knowingly using a product that damages the health of its users? Especially when that product can be easily replaced with a much healthier substitution. Perhaps you don’t believe that companies should actively try to not kill their customers. ---

Shit you could sprinkle a little bleech on food once a month and most likely not die from it…but would it be cool with you if KFC or BK did that? What if GM made brakes that didn’t work the 2,000th time you put the pedal to the floor? As long as you don’t stop hard everyday the brakes will work as long as you own the car. But if you do, you’re going to hit a wall eventually. ---

I think Janny just owned herself! FuzzyFish with the assist! Anyway, anybody that sues any restaurant because they are unhealthy (meaning clean but you end up fat if you eat so much of it) are stupid. It doesn’t matter if it’s fast food or not. On the other hand, if they are claiming that it’s a healthy alternative, or follows the Jenny Craig diet and you still get fat from it even by following the portion limits or whatever, then there’s a false advertising lawsuit. but for just being fatty food? Come on! ---

But I like KFC. Would definatly change the taste of it. Just don’t eat the shit everyday. BS lawsuits = no excuse for the fact you don’t know how to take care of yourself. :o EDIT: In this case though it might not be so bad, seeing as money runs the world you have to hit them where it hurts. But the thing is are they aiming just for the oil. Or money and oil? ---

A doctor and a consumer group have sued KFC in an effort to stop the chicken chain from cooking with high-fat partially hydrogenated oil. that’s what this thing implies. :gotme: ---
