Fried chicken doesn't have much racist overtone in this country. In the US I could understand it being offensive. It's easy to get crushed by the gleeful stampede to take offence on this site.

I don't eat fried chicken because of this bedsheet over my head. My mother cut holes for my eyes but forgot to make one for my mouth

My daughter and her friends only ever seem to go to Nando's whenever they go out for something to eat, the daft racists.

That's different, that's grilled chicken. And don't even get me started on confit chicken.

... And not because they are Indian, before anyone winds up to take a dig at me for being a massive racist.

Brilliant thread, sorry someone had to be upset. I accept his explanation, for what it's worth, and I'm rabidly PC.

I did spot it though. Only last night my black wife (not imaginary, Stewart Lee fans) was moaning about why so many black people were in the KFC advert on telly. I agreed with her to a point, tempered with the fact that I like to see lots of blacks people on telly being all visible and representative and stuff.

That's the kind of shit we talk about whilst rolling spliffs, frying chicken and shouting 'Fuck Da Police'.

I love Father Ted (and that scene cracks me up) mind you half of my family are Irish so we watched this a lot when we weren't watching Tara TV or looking for pots of gold.

Well it just plain isn't, so make of it what you will. Where I live in Streatham all sorts of miscreants eat fried chicken of all colours.

Make of it what you will. It was light hearted and it seems a shame that you would throw around accusations that are so serious about me that aren't true.

I don't know you but it still hurts to have something like that said. Racism is foul if you knew me at all you wouldn't have said it.

Or in this case, fowl.     *gets coat*

I also had no idea this had racial connotations.  I guess it explains why Col. Sanders is always shown wearing a pristine white outfit. I guess they couldn't fit his hood on the logo.
