If you are a KFC fan, then you must not be new to their innovative initiatives. The globally popular fast-food chain is best known for its crunchy fried chicken. Over the years, the brand has been open to experimentation, offering something unique to its patrons. Now, KFC has launched something even more bizarre. PS: It's not a food item, but a product. On April Fool's Day, the company introduced a fried chicken-flavoured toothpaste, in collaboration with toothpaste manufacturer Hismile. Mind you, it's not a prank. Sharing the announcement on Instagram, KFC wrote, “Not a prank. It's here. And it's Finger Lickin' Good. Hismile x KFC is available now, while supplies last.” KFC, in their press release, confirmed that the flavourful toothpaste is inspired by their signature “11 herbs and spices.”

Begging to differ, a critic wrote, “A chicken toothpaste is DISGUSTING.”
“It must've been teeth-licking good,” read a remark.
The fried chicken-flavoured toothpaste was sold out for $13 on April 1 on Hismile's website, reported the New York Post. The toothpaste claims to be “fluoride-free” with “long-lasting oral health benefits.” Besides the toothbrush, KFC-Hismile's electric toothbrush is also making waves online. It is priced at $59.
