than 80 countries and territories
4. PROBLEMS FACED……
Why doesn't KFC use healthier
oil?: the oil does have dangerous
trans-fatty acids.
Is KFC's food really that
unhealthy?: a three-piece extra-
crispy combo meal contains as
much as 15 g of Trans fat--more
than a person should ingest in a
week.
What are other chains doing?: the
Cheesecake Factory is doing so
already, McDonald's backpedaled
on a promise to cut Trans fats and
says it's studying alternative
oils, as is Burger King.

organization.
PETA accused KFC of cruelty towards
chickens and released a video tape
showing the ill-treatment of birds in
