KFC has announced exciting new additions to its $5 value menu, aiming to attract budget-conscious customers. Starting August 12, KFC is launching three new $5 offers on its Taste of KFC menu as part of the ongoing trend among fast-food chains to enhance their value options.
The new $5 deals include:

  1. KFC Chicken Nuggets: This option features eight hand-breaded chicken nuggets, seasoned with KFC's original recipe. The meal comes with secret recipe fries and a choice of two dipping sauces.
  2. Famous Bowl with KFC Chicken Nuggets: This dish layers creamy mashed potatoes, sweet corn, and 100% white meat chicken nuggets, all smothered in home-style gravy and topped with three types of shredded cheese.
  3. Two-Piece Drum & Thigh: This meal includes a juicy drumstick and thigh, served with creamy mashed potatoes and gravy, along with a buttery biscuit.

In addition to these new $5 items, KFC is continuing its "$10 Tuesdays" special, which offers a bucket of eight pieces of drums and thighs for $10. Another ongoing promotion is the $20 Family Deal, featuring six pieces of chicken (including two drums, two thighs, one breast, and one wing), four sides of your choice, and four buttery biscuits.

Nick Chavez, KFC’s Chief Marketing Officer, emphasized the company’s commitment to providing value. “As customers are looking for more value from brands, we’re expanding our Taste of KFC lineup with new KFC fan favourites like our nuggets and Famous Bowls, each for just $5,” he said.

KFC is also enhancing its digital offerings with exclusive deals available through its app and website. These include:

  • 40-Piece Saucy Nuggets Party Pack: Choose from four flavours (Honey Garlic, Chipotle Ranch, Mango Habanero, Korean BBQ, and Honey BBQ) for $19.99.
  • Sandwich + Nuggets Meal for Two: This meal includes two sandwiches (classic or spicy), a 10-piece order of white meat nuggets, two sides, and two medium drinks for $15.
  • Five-Piece Chicken on the Bone Meal for Two: Get five pieces of chicken, two sides, two medium drinks, and two buttery biscuits for $15.
  • 50% Off Chicken Sandwiches: Enjoy half-price on KFC Chicken Sandwiches (Classic, Spicy, or Saucy) when ordering through KFC.com or the app.

KFC's latest value menu expansion comes as part of a broader trend among fast-food chains to offer more affordable meal options in response to rising prices. This move positions KFC alongside other major chains like McDonald’s, Taco Bell, and Burger King, which are also ramping up their value menu options to retain and attract customers.
