KFC has stepped up their marketing game in the past few years as various actors have played Colonel Sanders in their commercials — commercials you see all the time. But that’s not all the fast food chicken giant is doing to try and connect to the masses, they have also stepped up their Twitter game. And one Twitter user noticed something pretty hilarious about who KFC follows on Twitter.
A Twitter user known as Edge realized that the KFC twitter only follows 11 people. And you won’t believe why it’s those 11 people. Check out the tweet below.
.@KFC follows 11 people.
Those 11 people? 5 Spice Girls and 6 guys named Herb.
11 Herbs & Spices. I need time to process this.

That’s right, KFC followers the five Spice Girls.

Incredible. And Twitter thought so, too.
the person that runs the KFC account needs a raise. I don’t care how much they make now. GIVE THEM A RAISE.

I mean… I don’t know what @edgette22 does for a living… but he needs a raise too. Smartest man of the day.

The .@kfc social media manager planted a low-key genius bomb and it just went off https://t.co/Abtx0rDlIO
