Global fast food giant KFC says it is

advice because of the coronavirus pandemic.
國際速食巨擘肯德基表示，它正停用「吮指美味」標語，考量現在因為武漢肺炎大流行而制定的衛生建議。
"We find ourselves in a unique
situation - having an iconic slogan that doesn’t quite fit in the current
environment," the company said.
「我們發現自己在一個獨特的狀況中，有個不太符合現在環境的標誌性標語」，該公司表示。
The company revealed its new look through
a YouTube video, showing the slogan pixelated on posters and its food
"buckets", saying：
"That thing we always say? Ignore it. For now."
該公司透過YouTube影片公開它的新包裝，印製在海報與「食物桶」上的標語說，「我們總是說的話？忽略它。現在」。
Some people commented on social media the
slogan was not a health hazard as you were already eating with your own hands.
有些人在社群媒體上評論，認為在你已經用自己的雙手進食的時候，這個標語不算是健康危害。

licking their fingers.
