A woman has complained after her KFC meal ordered from an Accrington KFC included 'rotten' chicken.

Lyndsey, 26, who has lived in Accrington for three years, was working from home when she decided to order a KFC from the Hyndburn Road restaurant, using the Just Eat app.

Ordering it on Tuesday (January 28), Lyndsay purchased a box meal which was delivered to her home at around 11.30am.

As she tucked into the meal, which consisted of a main, a side of chicken, an extra side and a drink, Lyndsey says she realised that the bone didn't actually have much chicken on it.

Pulling it apart, Lyndsey noted that a strong smell was coming from the meat and instantly put her off eating it.

Lyndsey told LancsLive: "I bought a box meal. Usually it comes with a main, a side of chicken, an extra side and a drink.

"I opened the box and I could see it was a little bit dry. Because it's on the bone I like to pick it apart as sometimes you can get pink stuff so I prefer to take it apart. I pulled it apart and it smelt quite strong. It doesn't look like any chicken, I didn't like what it consisted of. I didn't feel hungry any more."

Unhappy with her order, Lyndsey says she has rung the store and asked to speak with a manager.

As a single parent, Lyndsey says she can't afford to be ill and refused to eat the meal as she didn't believe the chicken was fresh.

"I want to take it into them, I don't think it was fresh," Lyndsey added.

"I got it at 11.40am today when they had only just opened up. I put it on Facebook because it's important for people to know these things. I won't be eating there again. I'm a single parent I can't afford to be ill.

"It wasn't finger lickin' good"

"I ordered it from Just Eat as I was working at home this week. I will be complaining. I'm thinking about going to environmental health to see if they can test it.

"It's not good. They do not have good reviews on Just Eat. It's important for the community to make sure we are being looked out for.

"It wasn't finger lickin' good."

On the Just Eat website, the restaurant has been rated as 3.5 stars out of five.

The restaurant opens every day from 10.30am - 11pm.

LancsLive has given KFC two days to respond to the complaint.
