Free KFC, Courtesy of Oprah!

Oh hell, free food is free food.

We're not big fans of the Colonel. In truth, neither was the Colonel, once his patented recipe and method were bastardized by the fast-food conglomerate that jettisoned his name in favor of initials. (If you want to taste what Original Recipe was like back in the day, Casa Orinda [20 Bryant Way, Orinda, 925-254-2981] bought the equipment and the recipe and still kicks it old school.)

If we're paying, we shell out for Popeyes. But when Oprah offers you a free coupon to try KFC's new grilled chicken, complete with sides and a biscuit -- downloadable today until 4 p.m. at oprah.com -- we say go for it.

What a Deal!!
I printed out 10,000 of those coupons and then drove down Michigan Avenue and threw them out my car window to all the tourists.
You would have thought I was throwing money out the window the way everyone was scrambling to pick up those coupons!!
Thanks KFC!

KFC must be trying to compete with the delicious McRib sandwich from McDonald's; it's hard to resist those yummy painted-on grill-lines...
