KFC Germany apologized for an “unacceptable” message sent to customers, which appeared to tie a sales promotion to the annual commemoration of Kristallnacht

KFC Germany apologized for an “unacceptable” message sent to customers on Wednesday, which appeared to tie a sales promotion to the annual commemoration of Kristallnacht. KFC app users in the country received a message encouraging them to mark the day with crispy chicken and cheese from KFC, according to Twitter users who shared screengrabs of the message in German. The initial message was apparently followed by another, saying the first was an error.

The company explained that it relies on a “semi-automated content creation process linked to calendars that include national observances,” adding that “in this instance, our internal review process was not properly followed, resulting in a non-approved notification being shared.” KFC Germany said yesterday that it suspended app communications while it put its process under review to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again.

WTF

Stop using the nazi term 'Kristallnacht'. shouldn't use nazi language. It's shaming, disgraceful and taunts the victims.

They also think you should eat from a bucket.

It’s always amazing to me how many KFCs are in Germany and Europe in general. Driving to Prague the route was paved with KFCs more than any other chain.
