Australian KFC patrons clucking mad over lettuce-cabbage switch

Australians are up in arms about local KFC outlets' decision to use a cabbage mix on some menu items due to a lettuce shortage

Fried chicken chain KFC said Tuesday that high lettuce prices in Australia have forced it to switch to a cabbage mix in burgers and other products, prompting customers to complain the result is less than "finger lickin' good".

So, we're using a lettuce and cabbage blend on all products containing lettuce until further notice," the company told customers.
