Thanks to the Food Labeling Act enacted Jan. 1, 2006, I'm finding most fast food restaurants have better ingredient/allergen info. listed on their websites...including KFC. Look it up on the internet and check it out. Always doublecheck at the restaurant before eating, of course, to make sure they are using only KFC approved ingredients. I looked at their website last night and they state they do not use peanut/tree-nut ingredients but there is a disclaimer about vendor sources. We have eaten the original & extra crispy without incident and are peanut/tree-nut allergic.
A long time ago my dh took the kids to a Pizza Hut and asked if they used peanut oil. They said only once when they ran out of the normal cooking spray. It always pays to be extra careful.
KFC contains sulphites! KFC is very secretive about the details of their ingredients and most store managers even don't know the specifics and many don't even know what sulphites are and confuse this up with MSG. Eventually after several allergic reactions and some effort I discovered that they use sulphites as preservatives. I happen to be sulphite sensitive and one time when I ended up in the hospital with yet another reaction to KFC I was told by the ER physician that the "Colonel (Colonel Saunders) and I must part ways" and have never had KFC again and have remained healthy and reaction free. I loved the taste of KFC however and should they ever decide to eliminate sulphites from their preservative list I would be happy to return as a customer.
