Why are there never any white people in McDonalds commercials nor black people in KFC commercials?

I know this sounds racist but the ads are opposite! The majority of KFC customers are black while the majority of people who eat at McDonalds are white yet they have been putting people of the opposite race in the commercials. Look at ANY of either company's commercials from this year. Any of them. They all use the opposite ethnicity to star in the commercial. Why is this? And I'm being serious here this is NOT meant to be racist. This is meant to be a marketing and sociology question.

    If you notice, most of these fast food restaurants are placed at low income neighborhoods or people I know like to call it "in the hood". These people become easy targets because once they see the commercials on tv, all they have to do is walk two blocks from home to get that Big Mac.

    you're for sure insecure and are hoping white ladies are as jealous and passionate about you as you're of them. such an excellent number of black human beings in recent times (not all besides the indisputable fact that youngsters that) have this fixation with white human beings's looks at the same time as white human beings do not imagine about you as intensely in any respect. And lol @ y'all attempting to crap on ladies as an complete so that you'll experience more desirable ideal. adult males are notoriously jealous creatures yet in person-friendly words women persons are hated for this.

    Because mexicans and africans are constantly b!tching about racism. Bunch of cry babies. I don't recall asians crying about equality problems. Look at asians now. They are taking all of the high paying jobs in america. Why? They don't spend all their time whining like little b!tches.

    Go ahead and give me thumbs down. That won't make you any less of a cry baby. QQmorepls
