Just in time for prom: KFC chicken corsages

Friday, June 6, 2014

Marketing genius? Or just a greasy gimmick? KFC has teamed with Nanz & Kraft of Louisville, Ky., to hook up two of America's loves: prom and fried chicken.

The Daily News reports that 15 out of the 100 available battered broiler bouquets had been sold within the first few days, and the promotional video was viewed over 260,000 times in the first five days.
