PETA Skewers the Colonel
PETA this week filed suit against Kentucky Fried Chicken and its parent company, Yum! Brands Inc.,
alleging that KFC lied to the public about its treatment of the 700 million chickens
slaughtered each year for its restaurants.
The suit is the latest action taken by the radical animal rights group in its ongoing campaign
designed to force the restaurant chain to adopt PETA’s vision of more humane policies.
KFC, which denies the charges, accuses PETA of committing "corporate terrorism" and
claims to have initiated a policy of making surprise inspections at its poultry facilities
and created an "Animal Welfare Advisory Council."
The company states that its humane policies make it an industry leader,
and has called the suit "one in a continuing series of publicity stunts."
PETA’s campaign against KFC comes on the heels of a controversial campaign
called "Holocaust on your plate,"
which compared humans in Nazi concentration camps
to livestock, as well as PETA’s ever-popular "running of the nudes."
