KFC Now Has A Fried Chicken Mac & Cheese Wrap
What’s more comforting than your favorite comfort foods? How about combing them together and wrapping them up in a tasty blanket for you to eat. KFC has essentially done just that, introducing their new fried chicken with mac and cheese wrap.
“KFC, the original fried chicken expert, is bringing back its KFC Wraps starting November 12 with a finger lickin’ good deal of two craveable wraps for just $5, and this time with a new addition: Mac & Cheese Wraps,” the popular fast-food restaurant said via a press release.
The return of these popular wraps gives customers three different menu options. You can mix and match any two for that $5 cost.
Here Are The Wrap Options:
- The Mac & Cheese Wrap – has an Extra Crispy fried chicken tender topped with cheddar mac & cheese and a shredded three-cheese blend (new).
- The Classic Chicken Wrap – is an Extra Crispy fried chicken tender topped with pickles, and mayonnaise.
- The Spicy Slaw Chicken Wrap – is an Extra Crispy fried chicken tender topped with a mix of coleslaw, spicy sauce, and pickles.
Each is wrapped in a warm tortilla. “Since we introduced KFC Wraps earlier this year, others have followed with their versions – but why go to a burger chain for a fried chicken wrap, when you can get a craveable wrap with KFC’s world-famous fried chicken?” said Nick Chavez, CMO, KFC U.S. in the official press release.
Also new at KFC is a sweet dessert option. Enter the Colonel’s Homestyle Brownie. This is an all-new fudgy brownie that’s rich and is loaded with chocolate chips. The Homestyle Brownie is large enough to qualify as family-style, as it is nine squares. This, too, can be purchased for $5 when added to a box meal, or for $6.99 if ordered alone. The Brownie also joins the menu on Sunday, November 12.

Are These The Best French Fries In Fast Food?
It’s a timeless debate. Right up there with “is a hot dog a sandwich?” There may be no definitive answer, but it’s always worth discussing. Who has the best fries in all of fast food?
Everyone is entitled to their own option and taste (literally). However, let’s be honest, there can only be one winner. There’s only allowed to be one winner, and one fry declared the best above all the rest. One fry to rule them all.

Every Day Is Fry Day
When talking about the best fries in fast food, there are no shortage of options. That’s for sure. You’ve got your national big brands. Then you’ve got your local specialties. Then, there’s also the regional restaurants that aren’t in every state, but aren’t strictly in one city, either. We’re taking everything into consideration.
Of course, ranking the best fries in fast food is no easy task. Much like a snowflake, every list is certain to be different. I mean, they’re all on the menu for a reason. If they didn’t taste good they’d be long gone. It’s the same thing with professional sports. Even the worst player on the team is still incredible when you think about it.
I’m no stranger to fast food, the cashier at my local establishment recognizes me when I pull up in the drive-thru. It’s a blessing and a curse, I suppose. So, with that type of experience and dedication I think my list can be deemed credible and valid.

What To Look For In A Fry
Personally, I love a good crunch. A well-done fry is a fry well-done. I’m not big on wet fries or greasy soft fries. They’ve also got to be independently great. If you need ketchup or ranch in order to enjoy the fries then they must not be that great!
Consistency is key, as well. It can’t be one of those “oh one time I had them and they were fantastic, but ever since they aren’t great.” No one hit wonders here. The best fry in fast food has to be something you can depend on. It’s reliable and every time you drive-thru you know what you’re getting.
Let’s not delay. Here are my rankings of the best fries in fast food. You may agree with some, you may hate some of these picks. That’s totally up to you. I will say, some big names are off the list, and likely for a reason.

One word their curly fries can best be described as: iconic. Why not number one? They also offer crinkle cut fries. The worst type of fire of all the fries. Sometimes, I’ve even had to specify that I want the curly fries. It should be the only option.
