KFC, Cherokee Place, Cartersville, GA, USA

5 years ago

255 Cherokee Place, Cartersville, 30121 Georgia, United States

My family and I ordered some KFC, which I reluctantly agreed to since my little brother was pushing the idea, despite poor sanitation, wait times, and incorrect orders at several other KFCs before. We got a couple $5 fill ups. Chicken strips and chicken sandwich, potato wedges, mashed potatoes, and cookie. I opened my box and found a small fly hidden under my chicken. I went to take my first piece only to be greeted by the creepy crawler trying to escape up the side of my meal’s box. I brushed it off but that made me weary and I only ate a strip and a half and my cookie. My brothers devoured the rest of theirs without a problem. Not even an hour later our stomachs were hurting on and off. I warned him about eating at that chain, but noooo. He insisted we get it and look what it did. I hope this changed his mind.
