If you are [fried chicken-obsessed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buildabear-and-kfc) you may want to navigate your browser over to the online store '[Kentucky](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kentucky-fried-chicken-toothpaste) for Kentucky.' The store sells everything related to the state and you bet that includes [KFC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kfc-bone-tie)-inspired paraphernalia.

One of the most bizarre products for sale on the site is without a doubt the 'Gold Kentucky Fried Chicken Wang Bone Necklaces.' The long name says it all: it is essentially an actual chicken bone from the iconic fast food chain's eight-piece chicken dinner that is covered in 14 karat gold and is strung onto a chain to serve as a necklace.

There is no need for compost, when you can just turn your meal scraps into wearable items like Kentucky for Kentucky designer Meg C does. However, if you want someone else to do the dirty work for you, just buy this necklace from the site on Friday June 27th.
