Can somebody please explain to me why people love to flock in their droves to these nasty filthy chicken shacks that inahabit every high street these days? Everytime I pass the one on my road it is packed to the brim with people who more often than not, happen to be black. We all know that this food is prepared and cooked in some of the most unsavoury conditions so I can't understand why this is the case. Especially when half of these shopshave reputations for their food poisoning rates,the windows and floors or filthy, and the people cooking this so called "food" look like they need to be hit with a bar ofsoap and water.
It's even more heartbreacking when you see these little school kids on their way hom emunching their greasy chicken and chips on a daily basis. It's awful! Can you imagine what that food is doing to their bodies? No wonder the obesity rate is rising in this country. confused3

I concur. I haven't eaten from these nasty arse, dutty, paki-run chicken shops for years now. It's a shame that so many young and older black people fill up these nasty biohazard death traps nyaming out some 'bird' species that probably has more in common with that beast in the film The Relic than any form of living creature raised on a farm.
Plus the paki man dem only exploit these poor kids looking for a quick snack after school byserving them food that's probably older than the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. African people need to stop going to these nasty places and filling up the pockets of these nasty slimy wretches behind the counter and do more cooking at home.

For real! I cooked my first proper meal at home when I was 7 years old! I've never been a take away feind but even more so, I resent handing over my hard earned money to asians. These people don't even like us yet they want us to pay their mortgages? no suh! not me!

The joke is, half of the kids you see actually are goin home to a proper meal but they ain't benefiting from it as they should because theyve already filled up on cheap crap that aint fit for human consumption. I've watched too much "Life of Grime" episodes to subject myself to such bile!

Agreed, I think people are just being lazy and looking for a quick fixto solve there hunger.They don't think of the conscience of growing obese, heart disease or the sanitation of the shop. I can't remember the last time i visited a ''chip shop'' i'm all about eating my caribbean and healthy food....

No i mean ''caribbean food'' and ''healthy food'' not in the same sense. Atleast it's cooked at home and not purchased from some greasy chip shop......

Id say it depends on the dish really. But I'd still rather have some calorie-filled bun and cheese than some deep fried grease!

@All
What gives me joke is that there's this really popular chicken shop in Bruce Grove (tottenham heads will know this place quite well) called Chick-King that everyone goes crazy about. Just because the people dem in there spice up the chicken a little bit more some peeps actually think it's a healthier alternative!!!
I don't go to NO chicken shops anywhere cos them fowl been hanging around for ages like hookers in Amsterdam. Now and again I check patty shops but 90% of the food I eat is home cooked.

What makes it worse is that most of the time, a healthy alternative isn't far away. The chicken shop near my house is literally 30 seconds away from Tesco express. Now which would you choose!

What would be fun... would be to have a 'national cook at home day'.....and watch all of these chicken shops including KFC panic like mad...the lost revenue for that day alone would cause a huge dent in their bank balances.
Hell.... we should even have a 'national buy black day'. It would interesting to see the results of something like this. Might even show a few of our people just how much these leeches suck us dry and how they need us to keep banking...

Back in October when we threatened to boycott paki businesses their whole community nearly had a collective heart attack....no doubt if we had a 'national buy black day' the pakis will say we're "jealous" of them.

Come on people you know why kids go there...IT'S QUICK ANDCHEAP.
KFC and even MacD's (although not healthy)be setting u back at least a fiver...these shops selling u a meal for under £2
Kids don't have unlimited funds...and eating healthy is expensive outside of your house...and it's not a race thing either. If you live in a black area more than likely it would be packed with black youths.
