KFC’s latest gadget is a chicken wings box that doubles as a drone

KFC loves a good PR stunt, and Circuit Breaker is cool with them so long as they cleverly involve gadgets. Today, the fast-food chain announced that its new, India-only Smoky Grilled Wings will come packaged in a box with detachable drone parts. Although customers will have to look up instructions online, they can eventually assemble the box and its parts to turn it into a Bluetooth-connected drone.

The company’s calling the box a "KFO,” or Kentucky Flying Object," which I guess is fine. The boxes will only be available on January 25th and 26th.

KFC has previously launched lots of gadgets, most of which were available in Asia, where American fast-food chains are historically considered a place to splurge for “family occasions.” Apparently the US isn't very gadget-receptive market, or maybe we don't like actual flying chicken wings as much? I have no idea. But please fly your chicken wings drone for me.
