By the end of 2018, KFC chicken will be free of human antibiotics, according to a <a href="http://www.nrn.com/food-trends/kfc-remove-antibiotics-chicken?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=nations-restaurant-news-kfc-to-remove-antibiotics-from-chicken-11756" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">recent Nation&rsquo;s Restaurant News article</a>. The decision could make a big impact on the entire fast food industry considering the Louisville, Kentucky-based chain is the country&rsquo;s second-largest chicken concept after Chick-fil-A.

&ldquo;KFC&rsquo;s new policy&nbsp;will be a game changer for the fast-food industry and public health,&rdquo; Lena Brook, food policy advocate for the NRDC, said in a statement. &ldquo;The market is responding to consumer demand for better meat. This commitment from the nation&rsquo;s most iconic fast-food chicken chain will have a major impact on the way birds are raised in the U.S. and in the fight against the growing epidemic of drug-resistant infections.&rdquo;

Perhaps the move will improve sales like it did for McDonald&rsquo;s Corp. and its Chicken McNuggets after removing antibiotics from its main menu. KFC plans to make the change across its menu for both bone-in and boneless chicken.
