Everyone loves a good secret, especially when it’s fresh. To celebrate the freshness of its world-famous chicken, Kentucky Fried Chicken is letting its social media fans in on more secrets than the 11 herbs and spices that make up its famed Original Recipe®. Beginning today, KFC will give away hundreds of gift certificates to fans who stay alert to posts from KFC’s Twitter handle (@kfc_colonel) and Facebook page (www.facebook.com/KFC).
From today until the end of February, @kfc_colonel will issue 20 tweets at random times (some tweets will also be posted on Facebook), and each one will contain a link to a secret page on KFC.com. The first 50 people to enter a valid email address into the page will be rewarded with a $5.00 gift certificate to enjoy a meal at KFC.
“At KFC, we’re all about serving fresh whole chicken that’s never frozen, and this is a fun way to remind people of that freshness,” said John Cywinski, President of KFC.
