Must be the compensation culture. To insure a chain like KFC agaist someone choking on chicken bones must be phenomenal. They must have decided that selling chicken without the bones is cheaper than the insurance bill. It's the only scenario that makes any sense to me.

A friend ended up near London due to work last night, booked into a B&B then went to get something to eat, thought he would be naughty and went to KFC, he was told they were not allowed to sell chicken with bones in it !!!!!!!!!!!
Why not, is the British public now not thought to be capable of eating Chicken.
You can buy a Chicken in a supermarket cook it and eat it, it has bones in it.
He was so surprised he phoned me to tell me.
