A couple fast food companies in the U.S. who sell chicken have chosen to promote their new products with commercials that run the idea that "nobody knows where on the chicken the 'nugget' comes from. OK, funny. Yeah. > > Problem is the new products being advertised: chicken (breast) strips and "popcorn" chicken. Did the thought not occur to ANYone developing these ads that neither the "strip" nor "popcorn" is any recognizable part of the chicken, either?
That sounds like a KFC ad, which has recently taken to comparing their plump, juicy cuisine with poorly lit week-old cheeseburgers to show how much better their food is. I think what annoys me most about these ads is that KFC food is among the most consistently disappointing I've ever eaten.
