KFC Searches For America's Most Original Holiday Traditions
To Launch the New Two Originals Meal, KFC Cooks Up Contest to Recognize the Nation's Most Original Holiday Tradition
November 25, 2008 // Franchising.com // Louisville, KY – Whether hanging homemade ornaments on the tree, dressing the family in matching holiday sweaters or decorating the yard in festive colors, it's original family traditions that make the holidays merry. This holiday season, in the spirit of KFC's new Two Originals Meal, including Original Recipe® chicken and new Original Recipe Strips, KFC is asking families across the country to showcase their Original Holiday Traditions. The grand prize winner will receive $1,000 to help carry on their family's Original Holiday Traditions and a year's supply of KFC to enjoy the new Two Originals Meals with their family.
"At KFC we're all about families, and one of the Colonel's favorite occasions was gathering families 'round a good meal," said Javier Benito, executive vice president of marketing and food innovation. "This contest will celebrate the most original holiday family traditions and encourage families to start a few new ones with our new family meal option – KFC's Two Originals Meal."
KFC's Two Originals Meal includes everything needed for a family meal: five pieces of Original Recipe chicken, four Original Recipe Strips, two large home-style sides and four buttermilk biscuits, for just $14.99 plus tax (at participating locations).
Beginning November 24, log on to www.KFC.com and upload a photo or video featuring your family's Original Holiday Tradition.

Dozens of homes were nominated in the contest, and thousands of festive fanatics from coast to coast voted online to select the winning house. The home of the Holdman family of Pleasant Grove, Utah, which featured 45,000 lights synchronized to music, was selected the winner.
