A Charlotte, North Carolina, woman made an unsettling discovery after biting into her KFC order Tuesday.

Lucy Parker Randall posted a photo to her Facebook page of a receipt from the KFC on Highway 16 South in Denver, along with a photo of what was in her meal.

She said she ordered a thigh and leg but explained, "I started eating and I look down to see this disgusting (expletive). I started hurling and almost crying all at the same time. I've never been so grossed out in my entire life."

Randall believes another chicken part was in the food and said she planned to call the health department.

A spokesperson for KFC told WSOC the woman has not been in touch with them and explained that the unexpected part was likely a portion of a kidney that didn't get removed.
