KFC is selling a chicken-scented fire log to warm your drumsticks this holiday season

And that means the time has come to slip on your fluffiest socks, snuggle up next to a crackling fire, and bask in the smoky scent of....chicken?

In a partnership with artificial fire log company Enviro-Log, Kentucky Fried Chicken is offering what's sure to be the hottest commodity of the season -- a hunk of flammable, chicken-scented bliss otherwise known as the 11 Herbs & Spices Firelog.

You don't even have to go flying out of the front door to get your hands on the bizarre, flaming mass. It's exclusively sold on Walmart.com for a slick $18.99.

You will need to really assess your priorities to decide whether that's too much to pay for a log that will fill your house with a distinct poultry smell.

For $20 you could get a bucket of KFC. WITH mashed potatoes, coleslaw and biscuits. Oh, and gravy. Who needs a log??!? 😊

And CNN is getting a 10% cut to try to keep their heads above water.

That is some pretty slick marketing... Get people to pay you $19 to advertise for you and drive people to their stores...
People all over will suddenly develop the urge to go get some KFC when they get the smell of it walking outside.
For the record, I have only been to KFC twice since finding out about Popeye’s Chicken about 8 years ago.

Here is a review:
https://www.adweek.com/agencies/kfc-wrote-a-romance-novel-for-mothers-day-and-its-uncomfortably-good/

Just Googling Colonel sanders Romance novel brings up a lot. it may be published online as well.

The company [for better or worse] has a sense of humor. They also sell “wrist bouquets” for give to your date. Nessled among the flowers is a just fried piece of chicken. Young men used to give such bouquets to their prom dates!

The fast food row near our house has a KFC and a Pizza Hut sharing a parking lot. I’ll drive to the Hut to pickup a pre-ordered pizza, get out of the car and catch a whiff of KFC....and find it difficult not to go in KFC. The warm, greasy, 11 herbs & spices smell is just delicious. I don’t care if the staff is brain-dead or they’re out of chicken half the time....I love KFC.
