Advertising Trickery!
I know you shouldn’t believe everything you see or hear. Years of living on this earth has confirmed this…but, being a great optimist and a true believer, I’ve learned the hard way that I need to be a little more leery.
An advertising “trick” led me to my most recent bump in the road on my optimistic travels. On one exceptionally busy day—the kind with numerous stops on my driving itinerary—hunger struck me. I needed something to eat and with little time available, I needed to make a fast-food run to a drive-through. Ahhh! I decided to try one of those KFC (as in chicken) “snacker” things that are advertised so generously on TV. They are only a buck each—what a deal—and look large and delicious on the screen. (It takes the actor two hands to hold this food offering!) I ordered one with a beverage and drove out the drive-through salivating as the smell of the chicken hit my nostrils.
