Woman claims she was sold 'slimy and raw' chicken burger at KFC

A woman has slammed her local KFC after claiming she was sold a partially raw chicken burger - which she said was so bad she vomited after biting into it. Mum-of-three Mechelle Corten went to the KFC restaurant in East Retail Park in Maesglas, Newport on Tuesday, September 27 with a group of friends and ordered a trilogy box meal.

After receiving their order, Ms Corten, 32, claimed she bit into her Zinger burger before realising that something was wrong. “Part of the burger was thinner and I was eating that,” she said. “As I got to the thicker bit and bit into it I felt my teeth go right through the chicken, kind of like the way it feels when the knife goes through raw chicken when you’re cutting it.”

Ms Corten said she “instantly pulled away” and looked at the burger, which she claims was “slimy and raw.” Saying she felt “physically sick” when she realised what was happening, Ms Corten took the burger to the counter and told a member of staff, who she claims apologised when they saw it.
