Hard day at work? No time to cook? Tired of pizza?

KFC is counting on that as it begins delivering its famous redand-white buckets of “Kentucky-fried chicken.”

Orlando, Dallas and San Diego are among the first cities where KFC is introducing home-delivery of complete dinners including cole slaw, biscuits, potatoes and gravy.

“We’re fairly confident that by June we’ll have home-delivery in 350 outlets across the country,” said Jean Litterst, public affairs manager at KFC’s headquarters in Louisville, Ky.

“As far as we know, no other chains are delivering entire meals or chicken. We’re offering the next step of convenience,” Litterst said.
