TORONTO, April 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KFC Canada is offering a deal to get excited about: two pieces of perfectly crispy, juicy chicken for only $2.99 on Tuesdays, available across the country. But please, hold the applause, because not everyone’s happy. After decades of passion, dedication and refinement of his Original Recipe, his masterpiece, his 11 Herbs and Spices, the Colonel is *not* down for this deal. $2.99? For chicken? In this economy!?
And if we’re being honest, he’s not wrong. Two pieces of Canadian farm raised, hand breaded, Original Recipe Dark Meat or Tenders for only $2.99 is an unbeatable deal.
