KFC’s most popular flavors are making a bold comeback—this time as potato chips. The revived Calbee × KFC collaboration reimagines two fan-favorite menu items, Original Recipe Chicken and Fragrant Yuzu Shichimi Chicken, into crispy, flavor-packed snacks that deliver instant satisfaction. Each bite releases a savory meat flavor that spreads across the palate, perfectly capturing the unmistakable taste of KFC’s legendary chicken.
Especially exciting is the return of Fragrant Yuzu Shichimi Chicken, a beloved Japanese KFC menu item known for its refined yet punchy flavor profile. Built on a rich base of bonito and kelp umami, the seasoning is elevated with yuzu peel, red chili pepper, and white sesame seeds, adding brightness and complexity to the coating. The refreshing citrus aroma of yuzu combined with the gentle heat of shichimi enhances the chicken’s umami, creating a flavor that’s both light and bold, refreshing yet slightly spicy. It’s a uniquely Japanese take on indulgence—now reborn in chip form for fans to enjoy all over again.
