Stricken chicken
KFC has changed the distributor of chicken to its shops and this has resulted in chaos.
If we leave the Customs Union, the whole way we import food will be changed.
I have no doubt the KFC fiasco is a warning of what could happen. Trucks will be queuing for days to go through Customs, leading to food having to be destroyed. This will result in shortages and price increases. PHILIP HERRICK, Cheltenham, Glos. FOR those readers suffering from withdrawal symptoms as a result of the problems at KFC, may I offer my DIY recipe? My version is roasted, so should be healthier.
You’ll need a pack of chicken thighs, an egg, breadcrumbs and a jar of cajun spice.
Pre-heat the oven to 175c. In a bowl, beat the egg. On a plate, scatter the breadcrumbs and season to taste with the cajun spice. Dip each chicken thigh in the egg, then coat in the breadcrumbs. Roast on a baking tray for 40 minutes. Delicious!
P. WILSON, Chester. LONG may the chicken crisis at KFC last! It is a relief from the lazy, thoughtless people who can’t be bothered to use bins. We often find KFC litter in our front garden half a mile away from the nearest shop, lobbed from car windows. RICHARD TRENHOLME, Worcester Park, Surrey.
