Special Delivery: Scent of Freshly Prepared Kentucky Fried Chicken to Tempt Taste Buds of American Officeworkers
"Forget television integrations or corporate naming rights, Kentucky Fried Chicken's first-ever "scent-focused" pilot program teamed KFC with corporate mail rooms nationwide. Along with carrying inter-office mail, overnight packages and bills, mail carts in Washington, D.C., Chicago and Dallas delivered the aroma of freshly prepared Kentucky Fried Chicken during pre-lunch mail drops.
Through the pilot program, KFC worked with an online company, a business-to-business consulting firm and a non-profit, to include a $2.99 Deal -- a plated meal including KFC's world famous chicken, a side item and a biscuit -- on the actual mail carts that pass the offices of hungry workers."
We're curious as to exactly HOW said lunch plate is attached to the mail cart. Duct taped to the handle? Sliding around atop stacks of inter-office manila envelopes, dashing gravy and grease all over TPS Reports? Inquiring minds want to know.
If the KFC Kart should happen by your desk, would you be a doll, and send us a pic and/or post in the comments? Theeenks.

I,ve eaten KFC since as long as I can remember, but i would
eat it more often if it was not so rediculously expensive
compared to the rest of it. My god, it's just chicken. It does
not posses magical powers, but it is good.

and what's up with that weird Back piece. Sure tastes good whatever it is. Those spices would taste good on carboard. Save us chickens.

I would rather go to Farm Fresh or Wallmart for chicken, it taste just as good and I know they will have it. I have been to KFC and had to wait 30 minutes to get it, the order always gets screwed up, the service stinks and the price is too high. Hell you know it comes from the same farm and the Colonel pays less or equal to the others.

Don't be so freakin' cheap. KFC is a business just like Coke or Pepsi. It is 1.29 for a 12 oz bottle of Coke at most gas stations.
Perhaps you need the dollar menu at McDonalds.
KFC is just fine. You get what you pay for, despite being, "just chicken".

When I was in San Diego KFC delivered the food. With a little suitecase of condiments...cool! I'm from Scranton PA and there is only one KFC that I know of about 20 minutes away.I LOVE KFC ! All I know is that if they deilvered here I would never stop eating it and I would become the mother in the movie What's eating Gilbert Grape. what I'm trying to say is I would become so big that my kids would have to burn the house down when I died to save me the embaressment of carrying my fat ass out. I'm just trying to say I love KFC that much no matter what it costs. IT'S THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!

Love KFC, but no longer buy it. after the pieces decreased in size by about a third. They must be doing the chickens at 6 weeks instead of the previous 8 weeks. And to add insult to injury, when the size went down, the price went up. It's just chicken. They must think they are selling lobster tails or something.

THEY ARE EXPENSIVE!! I USED TO LOVE THEIR CHICKEN. IT JUST SEEMS THAT THEY PUT TOO MUCH BATTER ON THE CHICKEN AND THEY DON’T HAVE ENOUGH MEAT ON THEM. IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY. I’D RATHER BUY A PACK OF CHICKEN FOR $10.00 AND FEED MY FAMILY FOR A REASONABLE PRICE. AND BESIDES THEY DON’T EVEN USE REAL CHICKENS. THEY USE SOME KIND OF GENETICALLY MUTATED ANIMALS. ITS REALLY DISGUSTING DON’T BELIEVE ME READ IT YOURSELF!!! http://www.snopes.com/horrors/food/kfc.asp

I will no longer support KFC after seeing a movie on PETAS website. I'm not against killing animals for food but what I saw was very disturbing. There is a more humain way of killing chickens or other animals then throwing them against wood or dipping them in scolding hot water while still alive!
