The fast-food chain has created specially designed buckets made of bone china to celebrate the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle this weekend, yes...really!
JUST when you thought we'd reached peak royal wedding, KFC steps up to the memorabilia plate and goes next level.
The fast-food chain has created specially designed buckets made of bone china to celebrate the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle this weekend.
The specially-designed bucket will be available at KFC's Windsor branch on Saturday
We can't help but snigger at the thought of Harry and Meghan chowing down on a bargain bucket in their wedding gear.
And the couple did talk about how they attempted to cook a roast chicken just before Harry proposed, so at least they are a fan of the meat...
That said, it's likely to frustrate some KFC and royal fans, as there are only 50 of the buckets available via its app.
A further 50 made of cardboard will be available from KFC's Windsor branch on the day itself.
The buckets will cost the same price as a 10 piece bucket, usually around £10.49 but prices vary.
A KFC spokesperson commented: “When we discovered Prince Harry proposed over a roast chicken, we simply had to show our support for the big occasion.
"We’re preparing for a rush on orders next Saturday as the people of Windsor flock to our restaurant to get their hands on this priceless piece of British history.” Anyone else who wants a special bucket will be able to enter a competition via KFC's app where there will be an additional 25 to win.
This wedding is low class
They’ll be red-tagged in TJ Maxx for $2 in a few months.
I hear the photo booth will be rad.
Bone China? Like chicken bones???
Fried Chicken?! That’s Racist!
Fried Chicken?
That is RACIST!!!!
Like all well intentioned liberal ideas, this will end up being akin to a Klan rally.
They try so hard and it always backfires.
Can’t wait for the bobble head dolls... princess Di is rolling in her grave ...
so far we’ve got dad refusing to go, Taco Trucks, food being served in bowls to the standing attendents and KFC bone china 10 piece buckers...is Jerry Springer designing these nuptials?
maybe the royal version is grilled?
is it chicken bone china?
everyone and everything is gonna have race overtones this weekend!
I have never understood American Peasant’s fascination with with British Royal Family nitwittery.
Bone China? I thought her name is Meghan?
Good Lord, how things have changed! :-) (And it was only $69.50 too)
Isn’t Meghan half black?................
