Post by: KFhunter on December 14, 2018, 02:20:19 PM: If I light a campfire with KFC chicken logs during my spring bear hunt is it considered baiting?

The chain says it’s important to note the following:

Each log can burn up to 2.5-3 hours.
Log can be stored and there is no shelf life.
Store in a safe, dry area away from pets.
Scent may result in a craving for fried chicken.
Fire log smells great, but do not attempt to eat it.
Log may attract bears or neighbors who are hungry.
Please don’t put face directly into fire in attempt to smell fried chicken.
