KFC
KFC? Kentucky Fried Chicken? In technology? Yes, but not here.
In Germany... and in Japan.

If you're giving them away, I can see the appeal. But if any restaurant is thinking they're going to reuse these on subsequent customers, hell no. I will politely decline their greasy, bluetooth-enabled disease vectors.

Yet that fork you use at the restaurant has been in thousands of mouths.

Yabbut if people are using forks, they don't need a separate keyboard for greasy fingers. A nicer restaurant would 1.) never (have to) offer something like this, and 2.) be trustworthy enough to wash them if they did--unlike fast food joints. There's a reason everything at a KFC is disposable.

I think this line's mostly filler.

Before I saw that keyboard, I don't think I noticed that KFC* was an anagram for F*CK.

The reason everything is disposable at KFC is the same for hospitals and other businesses, money. Cheaper to toss the plastic than pay people to clean reusable stuff. Making people think if it's new it must be clean is a bonus but a hoax. Thinking some stud cockroach couldn't have dragged his balls across that fork, or it couldn't be coated with latent chemicals from manufacturing is not being realistic.
