Diabetes in a cup is the best way to explain Starbucks.

Let's be honest here, if you eat out, you have to 100% accept you're inevitably going to end up eating some nasty crap and you won't even be aware of it. Someone could've dropped your burger and you wouldn't know as you sit there enjoying every bite

There is no better encouragement to just go home and cook for yourself or do a packed lunch than hearing these stories.

When I worked at my old job... The salads. There were rotten pieces of lettuce, expired ingredients, butts of the lettuce which were never cleaned properly. I did prep on weekends and made sure everything was up to standard. No one else would.

I've worked a couple of food service locations (namely a movie theater and a convenience store). Avoid fountain drinks if you can. Those nozzles and hoses get absolutely disgusting, and not every place cleans them. The theater I worked was really meticulous about it, but I had to teach the manager at the convenience store how to disassemble the nozzles on their machine so it could be clean. The amount of black gunky buildup we found still haunts me.

That arena serving "reruns" needs to be reported to the county health authority.

Never come into the lobby five minutes before closing and sit there with your friends on your phones. If you did that to me back when I worked in fast food, you would get your food in to go bags. It’s disrespectful because there are people who can’t leave until the lobby is 100% clean.

I used to work at Panda Express. Don’t order the brown rice unless you come within a half hour of opening. It sits in a steamer all day and it’s very rare that we have to make another batch the entire day, and more often than not, we have to throw out at least a quarter of the pan at the end of the night. The fried and white rice is made constantly throughout the day though so those are safe. Also the honey walnut shrimp is best ordered during a rush

I worked at Wendy’s about thirty years ago. They were maniacal about freshness and product quality back then. We most certainly didn’t go by “they’re not old until they’re sold” back then.

I worked concessions at Cinemark before the pandemic. It wasn't my favorite place to work but I will have to say it was very, very clean. We painstakingly pulled apart all the pop machines and Starbucks stuff that were used that day and everything was washed and sanitized. The nozzles even pulled off, washed and sanitized, every night. The popcorn used that day was always thrown out.There was a cleaning crew that come in after the theater closed and clean the poppers. The hot dogs and pizza were thrown out after sitting for 2-3 hours, that's why sometimes the hot dogs aren't ready, they need to be cooked. Nacho sauce was "rotated" so it wasn't sitting long. The hot dogs warmers were cleaned and sanitized every night. The popcorn shovels were washed and sanitized every night, as well anything used for ice cream. If we dropped something it has to be immediately replaced with a clean object or washed and sanitized. I never work at a Cinemark with a bar but I'm sure that is kept to the same standards.

Moral of the story is dont wait for any restaurant to DETHAW your food, wtf!?

The overall take away I get from this is. If you can, plan meals ahead at home. You'll probably add several years to your life, and save a ton of money. 😬

I knew they were gonna mention the McDonald's fresh fries hack! Yeah my boyfriend who used to work at McDonald's for almost 5 years says they all hated it when customers asked for no salt on their fries and then asked for salt on the side. He just says to ask for fresh fries if you want them, but be nice about it I, however, just hate salt with a passion, so I get both my burgers and fries there without salt. And I am very happy to wait the extra time.

If you order food from Marco's Pizza, don't get anything with salami. That stuff was used so rarely that it would often spoil, and we'd forget to switch it out. Many of my coworkers didn't even check if it went bad before putting it on the food (workplace morale was dangerously low). So unless they've changed their menu and use salami as an ingredient more often than in 2017, stay away from the salami.

I think the Japanese fast food one with the Volcano roll was Sarku. There was one at Ft Campbell back when I was in the Army, and the person described it pretty well: casual Japanese fast food, kinda like the Panda Express of Japanese food, but still fairly more accurate to Japanese cuisine than Panda Express is to Chinese). I liked their shrimp and chicken teriyaki (both meats, grilled in front of you while you watch behind plexiglass). The polynesian manager there knew me because my ex wife and I would go there fairly frequently. So he'd always ask something like, "Extra teriyaki as usual, bro?" to which I'd say hell yeah, and he'd squirt extra teriyaki on the meat while it was cooking and mix it with the rice. They're not the same quality you'd get from an actual sit down Chinese restaurant, but they're damn good if you're in a rush and just want a quick bite.

For ANY Pizza restaurant If you are choosing an item from the menu, dont buy it as is. Add something like "I would like that with extra cheese" or "Can you add some extra mushrooms" In these cases, attention to preparing the pizza is more than twice than that of a 'normal' pizza Bonus, it tastes better too

Former fast food worker here, McDonald's is typically safe especially if the manager is engaged with things, but if you go to (a smaller) Pizza Hut, be wary of the large pan pizzas. Let's just say that not enough space airing out pans and some workers being impatient or not caring has made me suspicious of pan pizzas even if I were the one scrubbing them. It was typically easier to air out the personal pans and breadstick pans because those two can be stacked to give enough airflow, but most of the pan pizzas we made weren't personal pan size. Also the people who say that not wearing gloves but washing more often is cleaner are on the money. Only wear gloves if you have to handle ready-to-serve food without tools, if you have something bleeding or suspicious (like a rash) on your hand, or you would otherwise be in trouble with customers or (less likely but still happens, especially if the former happens) management. Gloves are a breeding ground for food (crucially, potential allergens) to build up and sweat to build up inside. It's quicker and cleaner to wash hands for 30 seconds and get back to it than it is to spend an extra 45-70 seconds throwing away gloves and getting a new pair with a wash between those steps.

For the egg whites at IHOP, when the waitress came back and said they were "looking" for egg whites, she should have immediately said, "No, please use fresh eggs, seperate the egg whites from the yolks and use those."

I like how they grind up fish “lungs”.

When the Redditor said don’t order the Burger King salad my mind thought “Burger King foot lettuce”

When i worked at wendys like 20 years ago, the beef for the chilli was the pattys that would be on the grill too long to serve in a burger, put in a drawer till the end of the day.. then at the end of the day they had us rinse them with water, out them in a bag in the fridge overnight and the next morning, rinsed again before being chopped up and put into the chili pot

“They’re not old until they’re sold”…..this is applied everywhere you have to spend money lol. Goodness gracious 😔😔

As a customer I figured out if you and someone else want two regular (6in) subs from Jersey Mikes (or other sub restaurants) that are the same type of sub, you order 1 giant (foot long) and ask for them to have half the sandwich be the way you like and the other half to be the other person likes and if it is to go you can ask for them to pack it separately (I have never had someone say no but there is a chance). The cost in the end will be cheaper then buying two sandwiches which will be the same size anyway. This could also be done with with 2 minis (kids) as a regular or any combination.

Bojangle’s food, every one that I worked in had out of date appliances, roaches even in the safe, electricity issues, sewage issues, one manager didn’t like ordering cleaning supplies because it made the restaurant less profitable. So having your employees play slip and slide on a floor with chicken grease, and water was preferable. But hey that particular manager was also abusive to her employees, hitting them, cursing them out etc.

I used to be a waitress at a open 24 hours waffle house style diner. Not actually waffle house, just similar. Avoid places like that in general. The dishes get dipped in warm soapy water (no actual scrubbing went on that I ever saw), get a rinse and then tossed in a "sanitizer" that only made the dishes really warm so it felt like they had just come out of a dish washer. Also the dish water at the diner I was at was really only replaced 3 times a day. Once after breakfast hours, once after lunch hours, and then once after dinner hours. Although a lot of the time the water would really only be topped off with a fresh squeeze of dish soap and a little hot water instead. I will never eat at a place like that ever again and if that's how it's done at all those places, I'm legit shocked I avoided all manner of deadly infections.

I worked at Freddy Fazbear’s Mega Pizzaplex. I know it’s not “fast food”, but it serves a lot of “eat by hand” food. Avoid the Monty’s Mystery Mix, and not just because Chica goes coo-coo for it and attacks guests to get it. The secret is the pizza flavoring, but it tastes horrible, it’s like eating a pizza with the leftover slices mushed together.

I used to work the popcorn machines at my old job. Im actually glad i took the time to painstakingly clean the machine, scrub it clean, steam clean (no chemicals), use gloves to handle the popcorn bare, and would always replace the gloves every 1p mins and wash or everytime i had to get something else. They always chewed me out for going "overtime" but i always insisted that "whats worse? Paying 15 mins of ""overtime"" cleaning OR paying half a mill in lawsuits (each)".

As a dairy queen worker, the food is generally ok but don't buy the burgers, listen the patty is just. Eh, it's not great. Don't buy anything with the peanut butter, at least in our location, it's really gross. Maybe it tastes good but at least by look, it looks awful and flows weirdly. Also don't trust the gluten free. If it's busy that blender is not being cleaned properly. So do not eat there if you have celiac or Hashimotos. And if your ice cream is a little melty, it's because we are at least 4 cars behind and the chill workers are faster then the grill workers. So while us in chill are 4 cars behind the people in grill are 7 and often things need to be remade. It's a mess. Advice for oderering, sat what differnet or specific changes you want as you order that food. If the cashier is good, that food item will already be onscreen. So try to think of the changes and say them as you order because if you're really slow, that ice cream is halfway or completely done already if you’re ordering a lot of food. Also you can request basket items al carte. (Cheese curds come in regular and large. Large is much too expensive, just get regular and some soft prezels for that price) At least at my location which only has teenagers. The only adults are our manager and the supervisors. It's a mess but we try. So if you're upset about it being kinda melty, please put it in the fridge for a bit, don't yell at the workers

I recently ordered a black bean burger from buffalo wild wings and it was terrible. Now I know why. I'm sure I could have made it much better from my freezer.

9:40 drive thrus are almost always quicker than going in since they're timed they just ignore the people inside. I've waited well over 10 minutes for basic orders inside when I've seen countless cars go bye.

I worked at a Subway, that Subway post is ancient. The Veggie delight is still not worth it, but it is now cheaper since every other sandwich price has been hiked up. The kids sandwiches now get 3 slices of meat.

Be cautious of menu items you don't normally associate with the establishment. The non-dessert menu from Dairy Queen is a perfect example.

You are the genius, you sit and read subreddits while playing random game play and subtitles. That's awesome!

Never harass anyone who's handling your food. Unless you enjoy spit as part of your meal

That story of vomiting from food poisoning is so real to me. I was like that fam. whew

As a dominos worker, I HIGHLY suggest not ordering single small pizzas. Firstly, small pizzas are much more infrequent, meaning that the dough we have becomes very mushy and stale, giving you a worse product that is much harder to shape properly. On top of this, a single small pizza will cost WAAY more than it should, maybe even like 13 dollars just for the single one, you're better off ordering a large or two mediums

DQ is honestly a pretty good restaurant when it comes to food you get pretty good portions for the price but the 3 things I would say to stay away from is 1. The side salad it’s literally lettuce and tomatoes in a small plastic container(same one used in the banana split) 2. Grilled chicken sandwiches, while they are good the texture when they were raw was really weird 3. Rotisserie chicken bite basket, In a regular rotisserie basket you get 6 tiny pieces of chicken and pay the same amount as a regular 4 piece with 4 decent size strips. DQ actually does have pretty good quality and portions at least at the one I work at.

Worked at Burger king for a few months. Please don't come up with the Idea of ordering extra jalapenos for your long chilli cheese. Taxidrivers always did that and my manager in training told me that he got fed up with them ordering it that way (they always wanted more and more of the jalapenos every time) and put so much in it that it could kill an elephant. After that they avoided to ask for the extra

Working at Starbucks I get kind of annoyed when people order Frappuccinos or refreshers, due to how much it breaks my pace, but I can handle that. I'll live. Most of the annoyance is when it's ordered during a rush. But if you're going to pull up your TikTok app and show me a drink being played without explaining or discussing it yourself, just know I hate you lol So... If you've ordered a cotton candy frappe, a luffy drink, or a iced matcha with oat milk/iced chai with almond milk with brown sugar; I'm silently judging you. The last two aren't really "TikTok" drinks, but a lot of the people who order it come in all smug, thinking that they're doing something unique and different. That smugness bothers me. Most of the people who order things I would be surprised didn't choose to go to a boba shop, if it was closer to them lol I like the job, though, so I'll live regardless what you order. I like the complicated drinks, too, so... yeee

17:10 I had the fettuccine Alfredo a couple days ago... wish I saw this video sooner. RIP the Home Depot restroom. It’s ironic I ate the leftovers which I heated up and a pan and I was fine. Must not get cooked(or more accurately, warmed up) long or hot enough

Some of this conveys to me that the no-character Cs responsible need to be replaced by machines immediately. The establishment of recent decades, narcissism, etc. has given them a tremendously inflated sense of self worth beyond what is actually merited by their abilities, not to mention their value as people given their lack of inclination toward doing what is right and just.

Story 20 reminded me of stuff i c at walmart all the time, people who bring multiple full carts of stuff to self check out, it literally takes forever and the only reason you do that is to “accidentally “ forget to scan things

Adding onto this as a Jimmy Johns employee, here's a short list of things I recommend: -Every location is owned by a different franchise and has a different set of rules for what's allowed and not. So please make sure you ask, and no, we do not toast our subs and hopefully never will. -If you're ordering two or more of the same sandwich on our french bread (ex., two of the number 6 veggie), ask for a Giant as it gives you two whole sandwiches from one 16in a loaf for only a couple dollars less. Also, on the subject of that, while our little johns (which are 6in loaves) only come in the originals (1-6 and BLT), we'd be more than happy to give you a Favorite (7-17 and Gargantuan) if you know the ingredients and are willing to pay any additional costs that come with it as our meat, cheese, and avocado spread are extra. -If you're trying to be healthier but still want some chips, you can still get any of the flavored chips. If you're not wanting to snatch a Thinny Chip bag for whatever reason, the extra flavor doesn't add anything to it. So feel free to get some BBQ for your lettuce wrap sub. -Water cups are always free, and most of the time, you can get a 30oz/Large; however, if you want to have a combo, you need to order bottled water because our system is dumb. If you ask for it, we'll even hook you up with said 30oz filled with ice.

[7:25] omg THANK YOU for saying this nd everything else after det 😭 !.

Former Subway worker here. The owner of the one I worked at told the manger to replace the stickers instead of the meats and veggies. The owner refused to properly fix the freezer and the AC unit. He owns every subway except 2 in my area. He also tells his employees they are NOT allowed to discuss their wages with their coworkers, which I believe is illegal on a federal level (feel free to correct me because I could be wrong on that). The bar where the sandwiches were made was failing and it took him almost a month to get someone in there to look at, not fix it just look to see if they could find the problem but I left before the person came and it wasn't a year after I left that they closed due to the freezer and lack of customers. I just hope I wasn't the reason for their slow business when I told the town gossip about the stickers 😏

ANOTHER good note for not just fast food but any small retailor like gas stations be it timewise, 7/11, valero, etc.... try your best to NEVER give $50s and $100s before noon or after 9pm as many stores due to shift changes will have low cash volumes in their registers due to resets and shift changes. its for their safety to not have huge bills and lots of cash on hand. ALSO NOTE try not to break 20s on a sale worth under $10. it heavily inconveniences the clerk to have to rid all their 5s and 1s constantly which means you run the risk of making a store have to resort to card only much more often. if you ever noticed that its because people fail to realize not paying as close as possible the amount in cash WILL result in heavier inconveniences for all. ALL clerks appreciate you using your card more. the less a clerk has to manage in cash the better their mood will be.

I worked Wendy’s when I was a kid and based on that I’ll still eat there, at least the one I worked at did a good job

Chic-fil-a salad is most definitely cap. The salads are prepped same day and kept in a salad fridge. Only change to the time is how long the nuggets have been sitting. Late at night they sit longer

Starbucks barista here, dont order the new 'Frozen' refreshers. The icy part separates immediately and unless you drink it right away, you pay extra for a standard refresher.

Got a few from a touring a hospital kitchen during an interview to be a cook. If you want potatos order a baked one, every other kind is just dust out of a box. Also if you want anything with meat tell them to cook it well done, because the management pushes the cooks to get things finished fast instead of doing it right, seen more than a handful of dishes leave that looked concerningly raw so they could start making the next order. And finally be wary if you have any food allergies, they're more concerned about the dishes and utensils being disinfected instead of cleaned, after all if you get sick that's just more money they can make off of you.

As a former fast food worker, don't order shit. We don't have time to clean anything.

"Cross-contamination is not our problem." As someone who has worked in fast food before being diagnosed with food allergies, that line really depresses me. Us with food allergies really are not asking for a whole lot. It takes 10 to 20 seconds to wipe up your work area and switch out your gloves before making my meal. I get that nobody is perfect, mistakes can be made (I avoid lettuce due to my onion allergies because I understand that onions can fall into the lettuce bin), and that workers are up against a clock, but I find the overall attitude from that person who claims it's not their problem to be pretty dogshit.

Can confirm the Buffalo Wild Wings one as true. The burgers used to be fresh but they changed them to frozen patties.

Surprised this wasn't mentioned. I still love the stuff and the chili preparation process reboils the meat so it's honestly fine. But, at Rally's/Checker's? The grill cook has a tin in their meat freezer for "chili meat." This will be anything that gets burned or sits in the sandwich well for an hour or, most likely, got dropped on the floor. It gets frozen overnight, and then the next morning at opening it gets diced up and added to the chili mix. Yep. That chili dog is part burger that fell under the grill yesterday, got frozen, and then was boiled back to temp.

10:12 “if you order only drinks your order will come faster” uhhh no shit? 😂😂

I work at penn station. Lemonade. We have to make it before we take payment. Depending on how busy we get determines the quality of it.

wish i knew about the burger king hot dog thing when i was little, i used to love eating them. guess i ddint realize how badly they were made lol

6:11 LOL I went to Wendy's and there we were ordering for 6 people and so through the drive thru we came to our order of 12 junior bacon cheeseburgers when we pulled up to the window we hear "WE'RE SO SORRY ABOUT THE WAIT THERE'S ONLY 3 COOKS AND ME HERE WHAT CAN I GET YOU?" and I shit you not I'm sitting in the backseat just dying "uh.. could I get, tw- twelve junior bacon cheeseburgers?" there was not a single piece of bacon on any of those burgers

Current Sonic cook, I pretty much agree with the statements about the store. One thing I'd also like to add, please don't get rude with the employees taking your order via headset. The stalls have crappy cheap mics in them and it is very hard to hear most of the time, especially if you leave your vehicle running. Also if you order during any kind of rush, and complain about a long wait time remember that you aren't the only one there and most locations are almost always under staffed. Overall just be patient with the workers as we're doing what we can to get your orders out to you.

If you use ‘to go’ at Texas Roadhouse everything is frozen except the potatoes. It’s also a gamble on what side eat in is not premade. Rice is made to be frozen. Steamed veggies are not steamed, they are microwaved. Only fresh thing is the steak. Steak is delivered almost daily

I love this channel so much

Wingstops ranch and side dips are usually old if its not football season. Same with every sauce year round

Former McDonald’s employee, walk in was big enough to fit a short bus so months worth of food, try to go when new stuff comes in, and the all day breakfast is usually left over from that morning, this was a franchise tho so can’t speak for corporate mcds, oh and if it ain’t cooked in a grill it’s done in a oven or microwave

the sonic in durango co was the dirtiest place i’ve ever worked , fair warning everyone. it was years ago but if management is the same, it definitely hasn’t changed

OH, it makes sense now! I once lived in a college town, and teh only two places open 24/7 was Mcdonalds and Perkins, but everytime we (my ex and I) tried to shop at McDonalds, they said "cash only." And I just couldn't figure it out why. Who takes cash only? It never occured to me that they had system maintenance. We just went to Perkins every night instead.

i like how he's playing bendy while talking about this

my friend has since passed away so can't verify it, but he used to talk about tim hortons, don't buy the soup I think it was, as everything else is mostly fresh, but the soup was frozen and just heated up.

That's why I cooked my own food at home 🏡😅.

omg bendy that brung back nostalgia

Any large order, Placed during rush hour. 70 burgers, 80 slider , 120 large chips. After you get into triple didgets, no more mayo in those thangs, we just spittin in it. You made us, a fast food place, Work a catering order, during lunch rush. There was an air of shell shock at the 3 pm lunch break.

A friend of mine used to work at Sonic. I'm not sure if it's because she was new and their for a short time or what, but she hated making milkshakes cuz they were harder than, say, a burger.

Domino's tip: if you're thinking of getting the parm twists, save a dollar and get the 16 pc parm bites with the sauce on the side instead - they're made with the same amount of dough and are faster to make

Less salt fries. It's basically saying "I'm special, cater to me with fresh fries." If I just pulled fries up, the best fries are right in front of you, fresh.

I work at concessions at few arenas myself, and I never heard of reruns.

So literally in America never buy anything from a fast food restaurant.

I worked at McDonald's for a year. I wouldn't really say anything was bad to order. Worst case scenario, you get some not-so-fresh decaf coffee, but you can always request a fresh pot of coffee. Everything was always fresh, and the place was very sanitary. A crew came in regularly to deep-clean the place. The smell was disgusting when that happened, but all that nastiness was staying out of the restaurant.

Burger King also doesn’t understand that “Plain” means no toppings

Used to work at Quiznos twice in college. I literally just came here to say DON'T EVER ORDER THE DAMN TUNA! If they even still have it. I don't remember ever changing it out.

Are used to work at a movie theater and they would re-box up the popcorn and sell it for the next day

If have a large order at drive up or order with long delay tell them to park, that is how some do it, don't have them block traffic waiting.

I work at a Monical's(midwestern pizza chain) and most of our stuff is fine. Only thing i would avoid wholeheartedly is the giardinera, we order huge jars of it and no one ever orders it so one jar will sit in the fridge gor god knows how many months, plus its just not very good in general, get pepperocini instead Also dont order 10+toppings on a pan or gluten free pizza, it will take forever andprobably not even cook right Also we are judging you for EVERYTHING you order

I always ask for a tortilla in a bowl at chipotle.. I think the extra edge of the tortilla with the depth of the bowl holds more food! Honestly, sometimes they make it and cant close the lid..

I had no idea DQ had salads.

You all know about the tuna from subway but DO NOT order steak from there. Was told to just “pick out the hard white bits” those hard bits could be bone, cartilage or even plastic. Stick with something that doesn’t HAVE to be toasted (certain meats) and it’s okay to be picky about your veggies there have them throw out the old slimy ones if they aren’t already don’t let them put that on your food.

At Pizza Hut, don't order biscuits and gravy. Pizza Hut doesn't have biscuits and gravy.

Whataburger food is always fresh but you will wait half an hour for a medium fry so you just gotta decide whether you want to keep that 30 minutes you'll never get back or if you want fresh food. Not both.

yea chick-fil-a can be easy to get cross contaminated. however, if you explain it’s an allergy, they switch gloves, and there is a designated employee who only handles grilled items, none of the fried and breaded. They have a designated fryer for french fries, which are also GF. -a celiac patient

Not me watching this while at a Burger King drive through lol

I worked st taco bell. Just don't eat there every thing came shipped precooked frozen at store we would basically boil everything to temperature from chicken to nacho cheese. Only thing cooked fresh was callupa bread or potato bites which could be sitting on shelf for up to 30 minutes.

Ah? We did the math, with a McDonalds employee. The McDouble with BigMac stuff is worth it. Maybe it's only in Canada tho But I think the ratio is much better as for the same amount of food (two McDoubles) it's less bread, more meat.

As a delivery rider, I reject Burger King orders. It takes 20 minutes to get someone's attention and make sure their attention stays on packing the delivery as they all seem to have ADHD and wander off. Considering the food isn't made to order at BK - it shouldn't take that long to pack an food from the heater.

I used to leave one non-rotated hotdog on the at the movie theater it was so funny to watch ppl faces change to disgust as that nasty shriveled hotdog came slowly around to the front of the steamer

If you ask me to "surprise" you will get a glass of rat pee but if I'm lazy I will get you a cup of water

This is easily answered. If it's a franchise be careful and ask the employees. There's some franchise owners who are cheap and disgusting. Otherwise just be kind and patient with the employees. If you're nice to them they'll be nice to you. If you're a Karen you have no idea what they'll do to your food. Remember these people make your damn food and they do not get paid enough to put up with your bs

Never order anchovies at a pizza place. It’s so rarely ordered odds are that one little tin can has been sitting for ages, or the staff will believe it’s a prank. On top of that, the staff will hate you for ordering it. Anchovy pizza orders are treated like the plague… quite literally.

Unfortunately the “don’t order 2 12 pack toco boxes in drive through” doesn’t work as much after Covid lockdown. Sure places are more open now and you can go inside, but many places (toco bell included) STILL have limited seating due to health risks. Or people still are fearful and will only use drive through. If your wondering, this in NY.

McDonalds drive thru people often go in between cash and making salads (if they even still make salads)? Grilled chicken is prices so better to reup the timer.

I’ve never worked at a restaurant but don’t order a salad from any fast food joint, they drown the veggies in flavour and uses sauces making it have the same calories as a burger.

I LOVE BENDY! OMG! Good video btw

KFC’s pot pies. When I worked at KFC, they were literally the left over chicken left on the trays, deboned, cut up and recooked.
