https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d55fudJSUvE Yesterday, Lifetime and KFC announced that they made a 15-minute film together with Mario Lopez as Colonel Sanders. Today, they released the trailer for the minimovie, and it is even better than we could have imagined.
There is more cheese in that promo than is in their mac and cheese. Because of that, I cannot wait to see it on December 13th at 12n. I bet it will be an instant classic like KFC’s fried chicken has been since 1930.
While we might never find out what the 11 herbs and spices are, at least we will find out what happened in Colonel Sanders’ love life on Sunday.
Kentucky Fried Chicken and Lifetime teamed up to make a 15-minute movie starring Mario Lopez as Colonel Sanders. A Recipe for Seduction will debut on December 13th at 12n.
“A Recipe for Seduction is a perfect excuse to curl up at home and escape to your own happily ever after,” Andrea Zahumensky, KFC U.S. chief marketing officer, said in a statement.
Do you know what will go great with this? Grab your lover, pick up a KFC basket of fried chicken, light up the fireplace with a KFC firelog, and watch the short and eat by the fire.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMYnL5rp5FQ Kentucky Fried Chicken is as known for their sides as they are for their chicken. Their sides are green beans, coleslaw, mac and cheese, whole kernel corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, biscuits, and potato wedges. Scratch the last one. Those are now gone. They are going to be replaced this week by secret recipe fries that passed a test run in nearly 200 stores.
I watched a few reviews of the new side, and the tasters say that are good but too salty. Hopefully, KFC heard that complaint and reduced the saltiness. I, for one, am not a huge fan things that are too salty.
Are you going to try the new fries, or are you going to mourn the potato wedges? I am going to stick with the coleslaw, and mashed potatoes and gravy. Those are finger looking good to me.
For the second year in a row, KFC is selling a fire log at Walmart.com that smells like their restaurant. For $18.99, you can have a fat free way to enjoy fried chicken.
However, it comes with a warning, “May attract bears or hungry neighbors.” I wonder if you burn it on December 24th, then Santa Claus will leave you a few extra gifts? Especially since the Enviro-Log is made from 100% recycled material. That is a nice thing.
The log is the perfect gag gift to get for someone who is on a diet and really loves fried chicken. The temptation will be strong for that person! And with that, I was just put on that naughty list…again. Yet, it is worth it.
In 30 seconds, Kentucky Fried Chicken found a way to taint three things that I have loved I since was a child. Those things are Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup, fried chicken and the movie Ghost.
They took that infamous Unchained Melody scene from the film and replaced Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze with Mrs. Butterworth and Colonel Sanders. What happens next is something even a pornody would not touch. At least they have not yet. Give them time.
But don’t give me any of KFC’s chicken and waffles because I will not be eating either item for a long time. Which, I wonder if that is how long Sanders can go? Why did I wonder about that? See what they did to me?
