KFC's "cleanup tissues" C/D

I love them - it's something that won me over to them from other fast food chains, so much more classy! You eat, get your hands dirty but then you have a wipe down, and suddenly you're clean as a well maintained house!

Also, what goes in them? They don't list the ingredients in there, but I just had a quick sniff and it smells like vodka! So I guess some alcohol goes in there - it doesn't say it's toxic in the packaging, and they're pretty much free to obtain from any local KFC store - a cheap fix for hobos and students alike?!?!

classic, but not as classic as the hot towels you get in Indian restaurants.

i dunno steve. Those hot towels make me sad in a way, because the heat lasts for such a short time - 30 seconds later, you're there with a tableful of cold, wrinkly towels and you're reminded of the fact that it's time to go.

Whereas KFC towels you can just take 5 packets and when you finish with the first you just rip open another! And sniff the boozy heaven.

Don't mention Gravy Thread to Ken C...

I wish! I'm just an avid fan.

(a friend and I once tried to eat 14 KFC chickens in one sitting, on top of primrose hill, as a suicide pact, but ended up giving half of them to Jude Law instead)

kyle (akmonday), Wednesday, 13 April 2005 20:36 (twenty years ago)

classic for finding 5-year-old ones in somebody's glove compartment.

I like to associate food with dirty diapers, I.

"sani-wipes"

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 13 April 2005 20:50 (twenty years ago)

MANCHESTER, N.H. -- A Hazmat call to a Manchester Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant was determined to have been sparked by a hoax call, police said.
Firefighters were called to the restaurant on Hooksett Road because employees reported eye and skin irritation from a fire extinguisher. When emergency crews arrived, they found three employees disrobed outside of the building.
The employees told police that the restaurant got a call from someone claiming to be from corporate headquarters who asked them to test their fire suppression system. When they did and reported that they had chemicals from the extinguisher on their clothes, the caller told them they needed to take their clothes off.
The workers said they became suspicious when the caller then told them to urinate on each other.
Two officers were sent to a hospital for treatment from being exposed to chemicals inside the building, and two employees were also treated at a hospital. The third employee refused treatment.
Police said they are investigating the incident as a criminal matter. The restaurant was closed until health officials could determine that it was safe to re-open. KFC released a statement saying it was cooperating with the investigation.

okay most interesting detail in that article is this

Charmin provided a public restroom in Times Square for the third year running. The company has also developed an application for iPhone and BlackBerry that helps consumers find toilets when the need arises.

I thought pretty much every city-guide cellphone app already had a bathroom locator -- the one I used to use actually had bathroom "reviews" licensed from some sort of book

people really have trouble finding bathrooms in a city?

Mr. Que, Friday, 27 March 2009 19:57 (seventeen years ago)

Three possible answers to that question:

1. free ones? yes
2. sometimes it actually is kinda nice to be alerted to a pristine/empty bathroom in a tiny museum, or something, rather than using something unpleasant
3. no, not really

nabisco, Friday, 27 March 2009 19:59 (seventeen years ago)

Apparently, you've never experienced an onset of !BS in mid-town Manhattan.

how hard is it to find a starbucks in a big city?

Mr. Que, Friday, 27 March 2009 20:02 (seventeen years ago)

See #2

nabisco, Friday, 27 March 2009 20:03 (seventeen years ago)

(See also your phone tells you where the nearest Starbucks bathroom is, which is probably more efficient than wandering around looking and occasionally having fights with Popeye's employees about whether they're legally required to let you use the bathroom or not.)

nabisco, Friday, 27 March 2009 20:06 (seventeen years ago)

who needs cleanup tissues when you can have a Tijuana Picnic?

Stop relegating Hull you miserable gits! (country matters), Friday, 27 March 2009 20:06 (seventeen years ago)

Although to be fair I think I only used this function once, and that was to look up the highest-rated bathroom in midtown and go try it out, just for, umm, shits and giggles

Chanel has these in little packages with their logo on them. They have them for after you put on their make-up at any Chanel counter so you don't have to walk around with eyeshadow on your fingertips. I always snag a few and keep them in purse because they are funny to pull out at BBQs and such. "Need a Chanel wipe?"

Kelsey Glamour (Nijoli), Monday, 14 June 2010 01:48 (fifteen years ago)

a lot of the restaurants here give them to you for free and I always take them and keep them in my bag

♹♹ (dyao), Monday, 14 June 2010 01:49 (fifteen years ago)

Nijoli, you know how to keep it classy.
