Global fast food giant KFC says it is halting its "Finger Lickin' Good" slogan given the current hygiene advice because of the coronavirus pandemic.
"We find ourselves in a unique situation - having an iconic slogan that doesn't quite fit in the current environment," the company said.
It has altered its packaging with the phrase obscured but KFC said the phrase would return when the time was right.
