Dismay, disgust from Leaside ladies to KFC on Laird

Prefer a Shoppers
Can’t repeat it

The arrival of a KFC restaurant in the SmartCentre has inspired nearly 50 comments in half a day from ladies (and a few men) who post at the Leaside Community Facebook account. Their reaction is pretty much one of dismay, in some cases disgust. One woman posted a barfing emogi. A number of others said “Yuck”. There was also: “Oh No” “Eeew” and “What a shame”. A number of posters said they would have prefered a Shoppers Drug Mart, Nandos Chicken or perhaps an Indigo (that would be the long-shot of the century). One woman said she loved KFC but wasn’t permitted to eat it. Other comments remarked on cholesterol. Andrew Redlich and other posters recalled the KFC long-gone at the corner of Millwood Rd. and Rumsey. Leaside Community

  1. Well, If everyone hates it, surely it will be gone in six months time when no one patronizes the location – right?

    surely the exceptionally active Leaside Home Owners Association made some pitches to the sort of stores that are “acceptable” to them to set up shop, right?

    You reap what you sow, dear friends. You want positive change in the neighbourhood, then you reach out to positive businesses and don’t patronize the negative ones.
