KFC has come out with an edible nail polish that it says is finger lickin’ good. And yes, it reportedly tastes like chicken.
Or more specifically, says AdWeek, like the spice combination used on KFC chicken, which comes from our own Hunt Valley-based McCormick & Co.
Ogilvy & Mather worked with food technologists at McCormick, the spice company that provides KFC’s secret mix of 11 secret herbs and spices, to crate the nail polishes for KFC Hong Kong. The polish flavors are sourced from natural ingredients and based on the brand’s two favorite recipes, Original and Hot & Spicy. -AdWeek
A McCormick spokeswoman declined to confirm the story.
“We can’t comment on specific work with any of our customers, as this information is confidential,” said Laurie Harrsen, senior director of Consumer Communications and PR for the spice maker.
