Reply to comment by random_vermonter in KFC in Essex Junction? by random_vermonter

I’m just pointing out that we are such a rural,small town state. Totally honest question and I totally relate. We made a big deal when Dunkin’ came to town.

other businesses don't have nearly the same problems that KFC/Taco Bell do, it's universal in New England I've noticed, I've tried to get stuff at 3 different Taco Bells in VT and in NH and they all are horrible. Yet at the same time I can goto another business like Moe's or Wendys or Burger King and get in and out in 10 minutes or less with food no problem, even during busy times.

There's something wrong with the regional Yum! Brands management here that's especially worse when it comes to organizing their stores and workforce.

It may be a refusal or inability to pay competitive wages to workers. Did the franchisee receive a PPP loan(s)?

Do you remember when the Wendy’s opened? They had police directing traffic it was so crowded.

It still gets that crowded with the drive thru. I’ve decided to avoid Wendy’s. Knew someone who worked there and they claimed that restaurant serves moldy buns, etc.
