Mr. December (And a KFC Christmas)

Here he is!  That jolly, white-bearded man dressed in red with a bag (or bucket) of goodies for everyone!  

You KNOW I'm talking about the Colonel:


Mr. December, besides sporting the utmost in holiday fashion, comes with an extra surprise:  the KFC Christmas Dinner Menu and order form!  That's right, before the most sacred of all commercial holidays, the Japanese flock to place their orders and stand in line for what they believe is a traditional Western Christmas dinner at KFC:


Both the Party Barrel and the Roast Chicken Barrel come with commemorative plates.  Now, if that isn't Amer-i-can, than I don't know what is.  Of course, if you're more of a traditionalist, they do offer the nugget-stuffed Christmas Pack (without a plate) instead:


If you really want to show your family what a good year you had, you can splurge for the Premium Roast chicken dinner.  I'm not quite sure if this thing gets stuffed in a bucket or not, but can't you just smell the 11 herbs and spices?


Your traditional dinner is best washed down with some sparkling KFC bubbly.  Don't worry, it's only 1% alcohol...perfect for thinning out the extra grease:


If you would like to experience your own interactive Japanese Kentucky Christmas, brought to you, of course, by Mr. December himself, you can do so here.
