While it sure is tasty, KFC is always a bit of a risk. A UK student learned that the hard way when he discovered what he thought was a brain inside a piece of chicken he was eating. Um, maybe we'll be avoiding the Colonel from now on.

Ibrahim Langoo was recently enjoying a piece of fried chicken at a KFC in Colchester when he found a nauseating surprise inside.

"I have a habit of picking the chicken off the bone with my fingers and as I pulled the second piece apart, I saw this horrible wrinkled foreign body," he said. "I threw it down onto my tray immediately. It looked like a brain. I suddenly felt grim and really sick."

So, Langoo immediately snapped several photos of the disgusting meal and uploaded them to Facebook. Eventually, KFC took note of his complaints and issued an apology.

“We’re very sorry about Mr Langoo’s experience and while there was no health risk, we agree it was unsightly," said a KFC spokesman.

The fast food chain also claimed that the mysterious organ was not a brain, but was in fact a kidney "not removed in the preparation process." Brain or kidney. Does it really matter?

To compensate for the stomach-churning meal, KFC issued several vouchers to Langoo, but if he's wise, he won't be using them anytime soon.
