As summer temperatures and inflation continue to rise, it seems like every fast-food chain is now offering some sort of value meal deal at a discount. Starbucks dropped its new Pairings Menu, McDonald's introduced the $5 Meal Deal, and Wendy's has the Biggie Bag. Craving Mexican? Taco Bell now has the $7 Luxe Cravings Box. If you’re in the mood for breakfast, IHOP's All You Can Eat Pancakes made a triumphant return in July. Want a sandwich? Luckily for you, Jimmy John’s entered the value meal game with its new $10 Total Package Meal. Now, it’s time for fried chicken: KFC is rolling out a brand-new lineup of $5 offers to its Taste of KFC Deals menu to provide more affordable and delicious options.
What’s in the Taste of KFC Meal Deal?
Starting today, fried chicken lovers can choose from three Taste of KFC Deals options for just $5.
If you like to keep it simple with classic nugs, opt for the $5 KFC Chicken Nuggets meal. It includes eight pieces of KFC’s delicious boneless nuggets hand-breaded with KFC’s Original Recipe, Secret Recipe Fries, and your choice of two sauces.
The next option is if you want something a little heartier. The $5 Famous Bowl with KFC Chicken Nuggets features a fresh-to-order bowl with a foundation of creamy mashed potatoes, sweet corn, and KFC’s 100% white meat chicken nuggets, layered together and drizzled with home-style gravy and topped with a perfect blend of three shredded cheeses.
Lastly, if you want bone-in chicken, the $5 Two-Piece Drum & Thigh meal comes with two pieces of hot, juicy chicken (drum and thigh), creamy mashed potatoes and gravy, and a buttery biscuit.
KFC is offering more deals.
As customers feel the impact of inflation, KFC is continuing to bring value when needed most without sacrificing quality. In addition to the new $5 Taste of KFC deals, fried chicken lovers can continue to indulge in the fan-favorite $10 Tuesdays and $20 Family Deal.
