Over the past year, KFC has released a series of odd and unusual branded products like chicken-scented bath salts and smartphones—now, it is launching a new set of merchandise for the holidays that includes fried chicken ornaments.
KFC New Zealand launched a five-piece decoration set for the Christmas tree that includes ornaments in the shape of chicken wings, drumsticks, the face of Colonel Sanders, a package of fries and a bucket of fried chicken.
As it stands, the quirky set of holiday decorations may only be won through the KFC New Zealand Facebook page. Even so, fans hope that KFC New Zealand will make the branded ornament set available for the public to purchase, as it has done in the past with other unusual home decor items such as its fried chicken-scented candle.
