You wouldn’t download a chicken tender.
Make sure to update your Ad Blocker settings to include the whole site.
Their “joke” to shoehorn in a statement about their 11 herbs and spices doesn’t even make sense. Like, it’s implying you are using an ad blocker to gain secrets? What?
The overworked tech dude who had to build this page just didn’t give a single shit I guess.
The overworked tech dude didn’t have a single say on what went on there. That was the out of touch marketing team and project manager.

It’s reverse upside-down inside-out psychology
Does that make it right-side-up, ordinary psychology?
I’m not sure, I can’t even quite picture what I said because double-negatives and mirror images confuse me.
Same, dude. Same. 🫂
Ooh That’s refreshing, finally a hug emoji exists that doesn’t look like jazz hands

It’s probably not advertising that they are afraid that you will block but the trackers. They want to know what user is clicking where, how long you are on each page and what you ordered / not ordered.
“Optimal performance”
Never said who benefits from said performance
I don’t eat there anyways, but I wish I could even more not eat there now.
Maybe you should cook some food and deliver it to your local KFC - would that count?
Remember kids, adblock stops more than just the ads you see.
Also, fuck yeah I’d download a chicken tender.
ublock origin, adguard and brave’s adblocking are way better than the “adblock” extension.
Brave? Please educate yourself and stop using that piece of garbage.
What’s wrong with brave?

Edit: If you can’t switch to Firefox and you’re looking for a good alternative that’s privacy-focused and functionally similar, take a look at Vivaldi. Solid chrome-based browser.
Most of the article talks about the CEO and the company, the only criticisms of the actual product (the browser) is that it’s bloated, which is very subjective because one mans bloat is another mans feature and the affiliate link injection scandal from 4 years ago, which definitely shouldn’t have been done but at least it wasn’t malicious and now is gone.
To be honest I think people on here dislike brave primarily due to ideological reasons, completely ignoring the fact that 99.9% of people aren’t hackermans™ and don’t want to install gnu icecat or librewolf with 7 different extensions. For those people it’s either chrome/edge or brave, the latter, even if not perfect is a way better option both for them and the internet.
I wouldn’t call Vivaldi ‘a good alternative’.
brave at least has cared about maintaining their source code on github. Vivaldi, on the other hand, just [vomits tar.xz on their website]https://vivaldi.com/source/) and that’s it. they also have made ui closed source.
they don’t have an opt-out for their data collection.I personally use nothing expect librewolf(hardened Firefox fork). but brave is a sane choice for those who are spoiled by chrome.
the only praise I hear about Vivaldi is their tabs(?).
Ahem. I was referring to “Adblock” as a class of software, not referring to one specific program (the same way that websites refer to blocking ads as “Adblock”).
You have made an incorrect assumption.
It’s unfortunate that Adblock has become the Zerox/Google/Velcro of un-shittyfying software.
How bizarre. I mean, you’re trying to pay them money.
They deserve double money
I love how you could literally be trying to give a company money and they still want more…
And act like they’re doing youthe favor, to allow you to politely hand them your hard-earned peasant pennies.
why the fuck they need to show you an ad. you’re already there buying chicken
They probably aren’t showing you ads. They are probably inserting trackers to tag you as a person, a purchaser, who likes chicken and is willing to pay for food, for delivery etc. the size of your order may hint at demographics, like family, kids. The address.gives useful data, the type of credit card. What kind of software and hardware loaded the site? Etc etc.
Why make money if you can make MORE money?
looks like we need ad blocker detection blockers now.
A username named “Reek” had one but it hasn’t been updated in years
It’s blacklisted by uBlock Origin, I don’t remember with which claims.
Are they making money selling food or selling ad spots? Stupid businesses don’t deserve to stay in business.
They are tracking you so they can sell you more chicken. Remarketing.
So they can sell your browsing habits to other advertising firms and, ultimately, other manufacturers or service providers… so they can badger you with more targeted ads…
experience optimal performance
Phone immediately bricks due to the sheer volume of malware and ads piling into the browser.
That’s optimal performance for “put your phone down and go to the restaurant yourself”, which makes more money for KFC.
Honestly, does anyone ever read any pop up ad? I immediately have the emotion of hate that there is some annoying window blocking what I am trying to to read. They are lucky I just tune out what the hated window is telling me.
We should elect government people who would regulate the ads on everything. Ads can’t pop up. Ads can’t auto play. Ad can’t be bigger than this.
We are getting to the sucky part of capitalism. Ads on everything.
Do you really want a bunch of people who don’t know how the internet and general tech works, along with massive corporate interest, regulating ads?
Edit: I’m from the US where our law markers are generally old and/or incompetent.
EU has so far proven to know how the internet work and has been able to properly regulate it, so for my part yes. I would be delighted to see EU regulation on ads. But I don’t know anything about your government, maybe the really don’t know anything about tech but the EU government surely does.
I’m from the US, so our law markers are generally boomers that don’t know shit or people in my generation that still don’t know shit. Just watch the various public hearings of them questioning Mark Zuckerberg or Sundar Pinchai and shake your head with me.
Vote in younger people and vote in educated people. And yes government CAN work for us and do good things. You have to vote for people who would do that.
Did anyone see that Biden’s bill gave more funds to the IRS. They hired more people to help us, and go after the rich tax cheats, and are making a free government online filing system. Also the TurboTax company are complaining about it…and the rich, and Republicans.
I also would like government healthcare.
That doesn’t work in the US, we’ve tried. I work in IT and the amount of people that have zero clue about tech amazes me. It’s like 75-80% of the population has zero fucking clue about anything behind how the Internet works. For example, when Montana lawmakers said “We’re passing a law to ban TikTok.” but didn’t expand beyond that.
What ads are even on a Pepsico website? Why would Pepsi need 3rd party advertising on their own website?
You order online for delivery to avoid COVID only to catch a computer virus from an ad. I used to watch my relatives browse to a news page and IMMEDIATELY get hit with a “MICROSOFT ERROR CALL xxx-xxx-xxxx TO FIX IT”. Then I put ublock origin on their PC aaaaaaand good game ads!
You heard KFC no secrets allowed from them and from you. Open the cookie wall you must be tracked.
While this is egregious, why are you buying chicken on KFC dot com?
I didn’t know that was even possible. This is a wholly unexpected mode of behavior.
Well its not going to be on BK dot com.
