Everyone knows once something's posted online, it's there forever. KFC didn't get the memo.
The fast food chain hastily deleted their latest campaign on Twitter this morning after some... uh... heated debate.
The #NSFW (well they got something right) didn't go down well – too soon?
There's no subtlety about it. They went full PornHub amateur. Some are calling the sexism card, others just feel weird...Are you fucking serious? Nice job, this totally hasn't set back women 50 years. @KFCAustralia @TheGingerarchy

KFC, if you are experiencing "hot and spicy" sensations in your genitals, I recommend you speak to a doctor pic.twitter.com/iGaYDdXTI0

@KFCAustralia anyone looking for a job in social media, looks like KFC will be advertising a new role very soon.

In a statement to News.com.au, KFC said: “This was a genuine tweet to launch KFC’s new Hot & Spicy chicken products next week. It was not intended to offend and we’ve removed the image.”
Any publicity is good publicity – right?
