My quest is done.

And yet you ignore the part it is so rare, it is not even required to at all be declared as an allergen?

If it were anything serious it would be required to be declared as an allergen.

"While especially anaphylactic reactions to fenugreek are RARE!" "My son CAN! consume fenugreek with a peanut allergy."

"it’s a common ingredient in basic curry powder from the store." gtfo with your allergy bs.

There's even allergies to black pepper, oh guess pepper is out now!

Fenugreek seed IS in the recipe.

Would the KFC corporation risk a massive payout from lawsuit stemming from a death to an anaphylactic shock? Worse, the risk of a demise of the company from an allergy scare.
The taste of fenugreek has a maple like tinge to a fennel like flavor. So, it can be substituted with fennel, star anise or anise.

Chickenman, how many days has your mixed stood already and how has the aroma changed, if at all? Is it covered in an airtight container or open air?
Have you cooked with it yet?

The KFC menu is full of allergens. There is Mustard in the Zinger, but not in the OR, Celery in popcorn chicken, but not in the OR. In some place it's the other way around. But fact is, Mustard and Celery are in Sauces, Mayos everywhere.

Here is my point: Why would you remove Mustard and Celery from the OR, if you use it in hundreds of other dishes at the same time?

The reason Mustard and Celery are not included in many countries cannot be because they're allergens. If allergics would be a critical target group, they would avoid these items in other dishes as well. Which they don't. They also don't separate well enough in their kitchens against contaminations. 

A) So could it be that Mustard and Celery were introduced later? Introduced to make up for country-specific MSG limitations to add back more zing, hence the inclusion in the zinger everywhere? Or included in countries where people are used to more spice punch like the Arab and Asian world? Or

B) Are they indeed OR items but omitted and reintroduced at different times? Omitted because not note critical and reintroduced for different markets or to be able to be marketed as original again?  

Please note this is not an attack or case against Mustard or Celery, so don't feel emotionally triggered to tell me how critical and delicious you personally find them. I am interested in a productive and objective exchange about this. 

And yet all the other companies selling products containing Fenugreek are risking it? and in much higher amounts than the small amount needed in the recipe.

And what pay out when it doesn't need to be declared as an allergen? you absolutely cannot substitute fenugreek with star anise, or fennel/anise. Those give sweet anise flavours. Fenugreek is savoury.
