For many years companies treated April Fool’s Day as the perfect opportunity to announce totally fake productsOpens in a new tab. Like every April Fool’s Day prank it was a very hit or miss proposition. Some were funny, some were not. Some tricked people, others didn’t. But on rare occasions a company would announce a totally fake product everyone instantly wished were real. So companies adapted and started using the foolingest day on the calendar to have some real fun by announcing real products that only sounded like they must be a prank. And that’s why we’re all about to get KFC-flavored toothpaste.
Yes, for real.
KFCOpens in a new tab and HismileOpens in a new tab have cooked up a tasty treat for teeth. They’ve made “fried chicken fans’ wildest dreams (or wildest cravings) come true” with a new limited-edition fried chicken-flavored toothpaste that emulates KFC’s best offering.
Again, this is not a prank. We really can’t stress this enough. This KFC toothpaste is a very real product you will be able to use to order and use to clean your teeth. Here’s the KFC toothpaste’s official description, which makes us both hungry and not feel like eating at the same time:
We’re talking flavor notes inspired by KFC’s legendary 11 herbs and spices—all wrapped up in a craveable toothpaste that delivers next-level freshness with every brush. Like biting into a hot, juicy piece of KFC Original Recipe Chicken, this toothpaste is irresistible, coating your teeth in flavor before leaving your mouth feeling fresh and clean.
“This started as an April Fools’ joke, but we thought—why not make it real?” said Hismile’s Marketing Manager, Koban Jones, in a statement about the KFC toothpaste. “We love pushing boundaries, and what better way to do that than by bringing KFC’s legendary flavors into an everyday essential? This collab is bold, unexpected, and seriously fun.”
Bold? Yes. Unexpected? Definitely. Fun? Hell yeah! We can’t wait to try it. This is so weird, and we have no idea what it’s going to feel like to clean your tooth with something that makes your mouth feel like it’s eating fried chicken. If you agree, head to hismileteeth.comOpens in a new tab while supplies last. You can get both the Hismile x KFC Toothpaste ($13) and a Hissmile x KFC Electric Toothbrush ($59).
No foolin’. Just finger lickin’. Or, in this case, tooth brushin’.
