Lunchtime leaves Americans hungry, searching the company kitchen

New KFC Biscuit Bowls Provide a Hearty Lunchtime Solution

LOUISVILLE, KY - Americans are looking for more from their lunches - sometimes in the company kitchen and boardroom! According to a recent survey conducted by KFC, more than one-third of people said that they would rather score meeting leftovers than eat their typical workday lunch*. Furthermore, in one of the working world’s greatest mysteries, more than a third of Americans report having had their lunch "gone missing" from the office fridge, while less than 5 percent of people admit to having ever taken someone else’s lunch*. In an effort to give Americans options outside the company kitchen, boardroom and each others’ lunch boxes, KFC has added a traditional favorite to their KFC Famous Bowls™ - new KFC Biscuit Bowls!

"People love KFC Famous Bowls because we combine all the favorites on our menu in a convenient, portable and hearty package" said James O’Reilly, chief marketing officer for KFC. "It was a real challenge to improve on such a popular product, but we think the addition of a KFC signature biscuit and white gravy is going to make our Famous Bowls even more famous"

The KFC Biscuit Bowls add a new layer of flavor to the KFC Famous Bowls which were recently recognized as the most memorable new product launched in 2006**. The original KFC Famous Bowls were instantly famous because of the hearty layers of mashed potatoes, sweet corn, bite sized crispy chicken and three-cheese blend. Now, KFC Biscuit Bowls raise the lunch-time bar through the addition of a famous KFC home-style buttermilk biscuit, complete with white gravy. It’s the final "crowning" layer that makes the new KFC Biscuit Bowls ideal for Americans looking for a little more out of their lunches.

KFC Offers Best of Both Worlds
The KFC survey also found the following:

* More than two-thirds of people want great tasting food for lunch, yet less than one-third are very satisfied with their choices.
* More than 30 percent of people are looking for an "easy to grab" lunch.
