But what king of an excuse for a container is that? Do instructions for use come with it? How is this a good thing in anybody's eyes? I want to see the KFC CEO drink out of that thing

4 posts? Your computer hates you Tim.

I think that I could recycle it and use it on long road trips as a pee bag if I didn't want to stop. Like when I have to drive to LA to argue with my brother. I could give him the bag and tell him that I got him some lemonade from KFC.

That's a funny video. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one scratching my head on this one.

As far as the price of syrup vs bottled. You are exactly right. Restaurants make more money on drinks than food. That's why there's a dollar menu at fast food joints, because you need an overpriced drink to wash it down. That's where the money is.

But I wonder how much that packaging cost? Pepsi owns KFC. But I read that KFC will now start selling Coke? What's up with that? Maybe the bag is just a ploy to make the Coke taste bad. The guy on the video said that the soda was flat. Why else would you distribute your main competitors brand in your restaurants?

I haven't opened my bag yet but I'll bet that it's flatter than my junior high girlfriend

But if you need a bag of coke cheap. KFC is the place.
