London: A British woman was left dumfounded when she was hit with a 150 pound fine for taking too long to eat at fast food giant KFC.
A regular at KFC, Natalie Jackson had ordered a huge family bucket, which contained 14 chicken pieces, 6 French fry bags and large cokes.
Jackson and a pal took an hour to scoff the 5,456-calorie feast.
Days later Jackson was fined for breaking KFC’s 75-minute car parking limit.
“It’s disgusting. I spend a lot of money in there. Now I’m never going back,” The Sun quoted Jackson, as saying.
“It didn’t feel like I was in there all that long. We were hungry,” Jackson added.
Natalie — who eats at KFC three times a week — complained to restaurant bosses that she was unaware of signs warning of the time limit in Huddersfield, West Yorks.
Following the case, KFC has said that restaurant parking was contracted to private firm Civil Enforcement Ltd — but promised to review Natalie’s case.
“A parking restriction was introduced to prevent non-KFC customers using the car park,” a spokesman for KFC said.
“The 75-minute time limit is designed to accommodate our customers who generally eat for about 30 minutes,” the spokesman added.
