No, no, no. This is where I draw the line. A KFC-scented candle in my own home? You’re practically begging me to head to the local drive-thru to buy a bucket of chicken strips for “me and my friends.” Listen, I love fried chicken like everyone else. It’s delicious and addictive and grilled chicken will never come close in terms of taste. But if you put a KFC-scented candle in a 12-mile radius of me I’m officially off the wagon. I’m sneaking popcorn chicken in between bites of lettuce. I’m driving cross town for BK Cheetos Chicken Fries. I’m keeping a tub of popcorn chicken in my car in case of emergencies. And I know two of those three examples used popcorn chicken but that’s because I really like popcorn chicken.
It’s a great idea in principle. Fried chicken is an incredible smell. It’s juicy, greasy. Erotic, even. But I can’t have Colonel Sanders sitting at my bedside. I’ll wake up in the middle of the night screaming for dipping sauce or an extra biscuit. It’s a slippery slope buying this candle. Let me put it this way: If you were a drug addict would you buy a candle that smelt like your favorite drug? Exactly. Now let’s go eat some Taco Bell and forget this ever happened.
P.S- I’d probably end up like these people:

Unemployed…writing about candles…Duda is that you?
“Onesideburn” as a fashion statement. Name checks out. Duda is back on board
I don’t think OneSideburn is Duda’s nom de plume. Duda’s candle reviews on his tumblr are much more in depth and informative. Duda generally had more integrity in his articles, especially candle reviews.
Does anyone even eat KFC? Everyone I know is on the chick fil a train.
Popeyes

Why pay for over priced chicken fingers?
We’re not overpaying for the chicken fingers. We’re overpaying for the sauce, and some would say it’s absolutely worth it.
Smithfields chicken n bbq or catch these hands
Occasionally. Canes > Zaxby’s. Lex recently got a Popeyes and Georgetown a Bojangles. They’re both on my to try list.
