KENTUCKY FRIED RABBIT
DATELINE CORBIN, KY:
Kentucky Fried Chicken is putting their vaunted eleven herbs and spices on the line. They are, in a few strategic markets, introducing a new menu item: Kentucky Fried Rabbit. It will be served with their trademark Mashed Potatos & Gravy and Cole Slaw. A KFC official said, "Extra Crispy will be added later if this 'rodent' experiment pans out".
KFR is the brainchild of a KFC Restaurant manager who was having trouble with rabbits eating his garden (no mention of them drinking his 7-UP). He snared a couple of them and wondered how the secret KFC process would work on rabbit meat. "My kids love it," he stated. "Of course, my kids also eat paste," he continued.
On the condition of anonymity, another KFC official offered the followng marketing plan: "We hope to do for rabbit fur what McDonald's has done for leather. We will make it cheap and available for a variety of uses. Leather seats for your car and a fur coat for your closet. All due to the drive-thru window!"
Could be an interesting Easter next year.
