KFC brings back fan favorite menu item after 5 years
KFC brought an old favorite back this week when it reintroduced chicken and waffles to its menu.
On Monday, April 28, participating restaurants once again began serving chicken and waffles after a more than five-year break from the item.
The item comes as a combo, with a Liege-style waffle, KFC fried chicken, and a side of Mrs Butterworth syrup.
The combo starts at $7 but may be different based on location.
The restaurant is bringing the menu item back now in anticipation of Mother's Day.
'KFC sells hundreds of thousands of buckets of fried chicken each Mother's Day, making it one of its most popular days of the year, the restaurant told McClatchy News. It noted that Mother's Day is its biggest day for deliveries and online orders.
Like many fast food items, KFC's chicken and waffles has die hard fans who were saddened when the menu item disappeared more than five years ago. Those longing for more KFC chicken and waffles even started a petition to bring it back, though it's unclear if that had any influence on the restaurant's decision.
Unfortunately for them, it seems like KFC is only going to be bringing their favorite meal back for a short time. A KFC spokesperson told McClatchy News the iteam will be available for a limited time and only while supplies last.
KFC is also introducing Strawberry & Créme Pie Poppers which have strawberry and cream filling in a pie crust as a new dessert.
Elsewhere in the world of fast food and fried chicken, McDonald's is reportedly going to add its new "McCrispy Strips" — chicken fingers — to its permanent menu beginning on May 5 at participating restaurants.
That makes the chicken strips the first new permanent menu item at McDonald's in four years.
The fingers will come with a creamy chili sauce for dipping, according to an April 24 press release.

Mother's Day in March is traditionally more of a big deal in the UK, but it's also important to pay tribute to all the dads in our lives. Here's everything you need to know about the big(ish) day. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad When is Father's Day? In the UK Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June every year - so this year that means Sunday, June 15. But depending on where your dad lives in the world it may be celebrated on a different day, as every country seems to have its own idea on when it should be. In Australia and New Zealand it's on the first Sunday of September, in Switzerland it's the first Sunday of June and in Sweden the second Sunday of November. In many Catholic European countries, it's celebrated on March 19 as Saint Joseph's Day - marking the 'legal' father of Jesus Christ. In some countries - including Lithuania, Spain, Estonia, Samoa, and South Korea - it's a national or public holiday. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad When was Father's Day invented? The celebrations of Saint Joseph's Day have taken place since the middle ages around continental Europe, but in the UK Father's Day is a relatively new celebration - making its debut post-World War 2. In contrast Mothering Sunday has been celebrated since the early 19th century. It has a longer history in the USA - which along with Canada celebrates on the same day as the UK. On the other side of the Atlantic it was first observed in 1908, when a woman named Grace Clayton organised an event to remember her father who died in a mining accident. Father's Day eventually gained significance in its own right, with US President Richard Nixon making it into a national holiday in 1972. What is the point of Father's Day? Communities worldwide celebrate Father's Day as a means of recognising and honouring the contribution of fathers. It acknowledges the importance of fatherhood and the dedication of men towards their family and wider community. What are the traditions of Father's Day? In the UK it's traditional to visit fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers with a card and a gift. But there are more colourful traditions in other countries. In Germany it's tradition to go for a group hike. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad In Thailand everyone wears yellow on Father's Day and presents their fathers with a Canna flower. In Japan children gift their dads handmade beer glasses and boxes of Japanese sweets.
