KFC and Pizza Hut are both owned by the parent company Yum! Brands and are responsible for the cruel and archaic confinement of millions of egg-laying hens in tiny, filthy cages.
These cages are so small and packed with birds that the hens can’t move or spread their wings. Often, their body parts are caught in the caging, resulting in fractured or broken bones, deformities, and severe feather loss. Some hens, exhausted or unable to move, are trampled to death by their cage mates. Those that don’t die from the abuse spend their miserable lives trapped with dead birds at their feet.
Thousands of companies around the world are ditching cages. Global commitments to go cage-free are being made by some of the largest companies in the world, including Burger King, Tim Hortons, Popeyes, Unilever, Nestle, Aldi, InterContinental Hotels, Sodexo, Marriott, Wyndham, Compass Group, Shake Shack, Famous Brands, Costa Coffee, and Barilla. Even low-end fast food and pet food companies are moving away from this horrible practice.
KFC says that it believes "investing in the right recipe today is the most important ingredient to create a world of good for our people and communities tomorrow". Archaic animal cruelty shouldn't be an ingredient. Sign this petition telling KFC and Pizza Hut to get with the times.
