We are used to hot men being called beefcakes, but now we will know them as Chickendales. That is because Kentuck Fried Chicken hired the Chippendale dances to do a commercial for them.
Well, actually they wanted them to tempt the moms out there to buy their Cinnabon Dessert Biscuits. I might not have any kids, but I know I am craving their sticky sweet biscuits. I just want to bite down on that tight round biscuit. Which gives new meaning to finger licking good!
It still amazes me that my teachers told me I never could go into advertising because I would create ads like this. Boy were they right.

Kentucky Fried Chicken teamed up with Mrs. Butterworth to add chicken and waffles to their menu for a limited time. If you are going to do something this amazing, then you need to have a commercial campaign that is just as awesome.
I would not use the word awesome to describe the advertisements, more like awestruck because I cannot believe what they just did. I will never eat waffles the same way again. Syrup has forever been tainted.
On a positive note, at least the Burger King is no longer the creepiest fast food mascot anymore. KFC’s Colonel Sanders now has that title, So creepy they could not even get a well-known actor to play him.
BTW can someone inform Mrs. Butterworth about the #MeToo movement?
Colonel Harland David Sanders was born on September 9, 1890, and Kentucky Fried Chicken had a special prize for a baby born on that day this year. Although, there were some conditions. Your newborn not only had to be born on that day, but they also had to be the first baby on that day named Harland after the founder.
What did gorgeous little Harland Rose get? $11,000 put towards her college tuition. Which by the time she goes to school, should get her books for a semester.
We have seen fast food do something interesting things to sell their products, and KFC just came up with a purrfect promotion. They created a cat tree in the image of Colonel Sanders and let some kitties play in and around him.
Did they find him paw licking good? Yes, they did. The kitties enjoyed him as much as my cat does when I bring home some Kentucky Fried Chicken.
But can I be honest? This video is so bad, and yet I watched the whole thing. It is like a trainwreck, you cannot look away.

They hired ’90s sitcom star Jason Alexander to play Colonel Sanders. Not only that, they gave him a theme song that would make Growing Pains, Family Matters and Full House very proud.
It cannot only be about the song that is finger licking good, so they gave him a mini-episode too. Out of all Colonels, George Costanza is my favorite one by far. So much, I hope they keep him around for a long time. Longer than their yummy pickle sandwich that is already gone.
