The hottest gig on television now appears to be portraying KFC’s Colonel Sanders. And, luckily for those looking for work, the role has been what you might call ‘extremely interchangeable.’
Next up to sport the string tie and goatee is Rob Lowe. The new campaign is for the Chicken Zinger Sandwich, which KFC may or may not be launching into space. It’s hard to tell, as the viewer will surely be distracted by the new Colonel’s seemingly eternal youth, and uneven Kentucky accent.

Heart-shaped chocolate for Valentine’s Day? Been there, done that. Heart-shaped pizza with heart-shaped pepperoni in a heart-shaped box? Puh-leez.
KFC knows how to profess some love… with a greasy Valentine’s Day-themed bucket of chicken. The ChickenGram is a heart-shaped bucket, filled with fried chicken parts. If that doesn’t say, ‘I Love You,’ then there’s no hope for you.
Now, the bad news, lover… ChickenGrams are only available in Canada. And, even if you’re north of the border, you’ll need to enter a contest for a chance to win one. Maybe it just wasn’t meant to be.
Apparently, there’s a TV show called Carjackers, which is kinda like Pimp My Ride. Only, instead of receiving a swank paint-job, car-owners get their vehicle back in more embarrassing form — for example, as a giant chicken nugget.
This particular prank was done at the behest of the car-owner’s fiancé. We assume they’re still engaged, depending on how much he really likes Chicken Nuggets, a rear-view of any kind, and if she brought any honey mustard.
Taking their slogan “Finger Lickin’ Good” to higher and much more disgusting levels, KFC is releasing a line of edible nail polishes. And if, like most, you just double-checked that it’s not still April 1st, you’ll realize that this is no joke.
Finger Lickin’ Good Edible Nail Polish is made to be applied just like regular nail polish. However, in addition to feeling pretty, the user can then lick their Original Recipe or Hot & Spicy fingers.
The edible nail polish will be available in limited release via KFC Hong Kong.

When we want a sandwich, we want one right now, dammit. Andy George of YouTube channel, How To Make Everything, appears to be in no rush, and has apparently never heard of a deli.
Creating a sandwich completely from scratch, How To Make a $1500 Sandwich in Only 6 Months is actually a very good excuse to not only make lunch, but to call attention to the process of supplying sandwich ingredients.
Step one… Grow your own garden. The rest of the process includes harvesting salt from the ocean, milking a cow to make cheese, and chicken murder. The result, from the sandwich-maker himself… “not bad.” Next time, go to the deli, dude.
