Did KFC pull out snarky #ChickenSad ad?

Did they suddenly think they were being “too mean”? Were they visited by Ghosts of ChickenJoys Past?

“KFC Philippines was quick to spot the opportunity to poke fun at Jollibee and its #ChickenSad problems last week but it seems that the brand may have ‘chickened’ out,” reports the Marketing magazine.

Indeed, KFC’s snarky response to Jollibee’s ChickenJoy woes is no longer found on KFC Philippines’ Facebook or Twitter page.

What gives?

In any case, the image lives on—thanks to diligent netizens.
