KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) gave away bottles of sunscreen that smells like chicken to promote their Extra Crispy fried chicken!! Wow, wonder if they gave out some kind of spray to keep bugs or animals off of the people!!

Wow!! I've heard of company's that make finger nail polish and even perfume to smell like their product to boost sales!! What ever happened to the product selling itself??? Would you buy a product that smelled like a food you liked, other than the food itself, like this sunscreen or nail polish or perfume? ~Peace~ photo courtesy of article mentioned below http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3753631/KFCs-new-marketing-gimmick-Giving-away-scented-sunscreen.html

*Mind explodes* I don't want to smell like fried chicken. It is the least sexiest feeling I am going to have.

It is a good repellent against perverts though.

I don't think it is an good idea to give away stuff reminiscent of chicken to customers .If it were me,I would suspect they have added some spice to the chicken like they did on the sunscreen.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer used butter instead of tanning lotion. Off camera Neuman bit him.

I honestly cannot think of any reason to buy KFC, its so unhealthy, and the very last thing that I'd ever want to smell like.
