A Kentucky Fried Christmas: the 15 Festive Chicken Puns You Never Knew You Needed

On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love gave to me: twelve popcorn chickens, eleven fries a-frying, ten Zingers zinging, nine drumsticks drumming, eight corns-a-cobbing, seven families feasting, six vegan burgers, FIIIVE SPI-CY WINGGGS, four mini fillets, three gravies, two lots of mash and a Christmas card from KFC!

 Yes, we’ve teamed up with KFC once again, this time spreading chicken and cheer for the holiday season. If there’s one thing KFC and Christmas will always have in common, it’s that they’re meant for sharing. So, we’re serving up six cracking Christmas cards, with finger lickin’ good designs featuring carol Zingers singing and sleigh bells winging to add some much-needed joy to this year’s festive season.

BUT if these aren’t enough, we didn’t stop there (even if the pun-haters out there might beg). When we asked everyone at the Moonpig HQ to come up with their most crispy poultry puns, we had no idea just how many would come outta their brains. The good, the bad and the ugly. Since we could only put six of them on the cards, we thought we’d take this opportunity to give the rest their moment in the sun.

So, here you have it...the 15 festive chicken puns you never knew you needed. (And might not need, but whoops too late here they are...)

1. Merry clucking Christmas!

2. He KFCs you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake…

3. Have the breast Christmas ever!

4. Hark the herald angels wing.

5. Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell Cock.

6. I’m dreaming of a fried Christmas.

7. Ding dong! Merrily on thigh!

8. How do you like your drumsticks? Deep and crisp and even.

9. Drumsticks roasting on an open Fire.

10. The Nutclucker.

11. It’s beginning to look a lot like chicken.

12. Golden chicken wings, frankincense and myrrh.

13. KFT: Kentucky Fried Turkey!

14. Santa gravy…

15. On the 12th day of Lockdown my true love gave me a bucket ooooof KFC!

Oh, and one more thing. If all that hasn’t got you feeling hungry for festivity, we’d better tell you that 10% of net sales from the cards will be going directly to KFC Foundation’s charity partner, Comic Relief – so you can make someone’s day in more ways than one!
