KFC unwittingly struck on a bit of great publicity by delivering customer no service!

The restaurant chain's recent joint promotion with Oprah Winfrey offered online coupons for two pieces of their new grilled chicken, two sides and a biscuit -- absolutely FREE.

KFCs were so overwhelmed with people trying to redeem the coupon that there were widespread shortages of the grilled chicken. That caused some folks to gripe online and the whole episode has since become a viral sensation.

No one would have complained if they had delivered on their initial promise, right? But now everyone in cyberspace knows about KFC's new grilled chicken!

Remember, folks, this is free food. If you were lucky enough to get a coupon, they're still valid through May 15. So why not just try back in a few days when your KFC is restocked with grilled chicken? (Editor's note: No more coupons are available for this promotion.)

This is such a statement about the change in our desire to eat healthier. Even "healthy" meals, however, can really pack on the pounds. Take salad bars as an example. You can get a healthy salad, or you can load up on bacon bits, cheese and fatty dressing and have a heart attack in a salad bowl.

The choice is yours.
