Drain the cooking oil out after five (??) days and all the bits are filtered out are crushed up to make the gravy.
After 5 days it's replaced with new oil. I think the gravy is made daily using the bits at the bottom.

Knew it was the bits, wasn't sure as the time line. Either way, not that bad really.

(there is absolutely no relation between my username and my place of work, I have zero do with KFC restaurants laugh )

I'm struggling to understand why KFC allowed this documentary to take place. I doubt many people watched that and then thought they'll need to run out and get a KFC. Allowing that gravy process to be shown was a big mistake too. I won't be buying that again.

With staff perhaps being not particularly intelligent, having zero media training, and the tv crew having dozens of hours of footage to sift through for idiotic sound bites, the staff weren't going to come across brilliantly. I can just imagine that blond girls manager as he watches her give some free advertising to Nandos on prime time TV. The stuff with the swearing, rude to customers etc, doesn't show them in a great light either.

I wonder if that food giveaway was organised as a bit of pr purely because the tv cameras are there. But that amount of food wastage should be criminal. If they want to dispose of it then fine, lets enforce it being donated to food banks or charities.

I can't help but think the tv crew deliberately found the 3 fattest customers possible when they came with them in the car.

All in... i think KFC gained nothing from participating.

I was surprised that it was on the BBC tbh given their relationship to non commercial advertising.

It's the sort of documentary I'd have expected to find in the same time slot on C4 or C5.

Well I'm shocked.
Shocked I tell you...

"Growing numbers of fast food takeaways such as fried chicken and kebab shops are opening up, especially in deprived areas"

"The researchers used Yellow Pages telephone directories to chart the growth in premises selling energy-dense foods that often contain large amounts of fat."

1st year research project then !

Are kebabs (the article picture) that high in calories / energy dense ?
