KFC customer outraged over use of ingredient she thought was banned

A KFC customer was outraged after discovering one of the fast food chain's secret ingredients, claiming she thought the substance had been banned. The woman, from New Zealand, shared an image of a packet of seasoning labelled 'COLONEL SANDERS' RECIPE Kentucky Fried Chicken Seasoning'.

The label shows the ingredients contain more than just the chain's famed 'secret herbs and spices' with the controversial salt MSG (monosodium glutamate) included. The customer was left stunned and posted her displeasure on social media, sparking a heated discussion about the popular takeaway.

Facebook users were split, with some sharing their shock that MSG was in the original recipe chicken seasoning, while others said it was OK in moderation, the Daily Mail reports.
