KFC is Upping their Spice Game with the Zinger Sandwich, Hot Wings and Hot New Collabs
July 03 2024 - 7:00AM
KFC Canada is cranking up the heat by
reminding Canadians that they’ve mastered the perfect amount of
spice - a crave worthy heat that packs a punch with global
cult-classic the Zinger Sandwich and Hot Wings. KFC's spicy lineup
perfectly balances the bold heat and crunch for the ultimate spicy
flavour experience.
The globally beloved Zinger Sandwich is known
for its crispy, juicy chicken fillet marinated with a blend of bold
spices, topped with spicy mayo that will leave tastebuds tingling.
To maximize the heat, KFC’s Hot Wings are available for the true
spicy-food-lovers out there. These Hot Wings are breaded and
crisped to perfection.
“KFC Canada is thrilled to bring the bold and
crispy taste of our Zinger Sandwich and Hot Wings to spice lovers
nationwide,” said Katherine Bond-Debicki, Chief Marketing Officer,
KFC Canada. “Our commitment to serving up craveable heat and
unforgettable crunch shines through in these global favorites. With
our fresh Zinger collaborations and merch, we’re giving Canadians
even more ways to savor and celebrate the spicy flavours they
love.”
To get Canadians even more excited, KFC is
celebrating all this spiciness in a big way with epic Zinger
merchandise, a spicy collab with Ruffles, and heating things up at
Budweiser Stage.
Ruffles Double Crunch KFC Zinger chips
– Canadians loved the Ruffles Original Recipe chips so we
wanted to bring two iconic brands back together for another flavour
explosion. This time with a kick of Zinger spice for a Finger
Lickin’ Good snack. This limited edition collab is available now at
major retailers across Canada. Once they're gone, they're gone.
Live Nation Collab at Budweiser Stage
– To ensure Canadians are getting their hands on the KFC
Zinger sandwich during their favourite summer moments, KFC has now
made the sandwich available at Budweiser Stage for sizzling concert
experiences. On July 15 and 17, August 2, 16 and 17, concert-goers
will have the chance to beat the heat and KFC’s spicy flavours by
stepping into a Zinger-themed Misting Station at Budweiser Stage
for a moment to cool off and refresh.
KFC Zinger Merch – As of July
10, KFC Zinger merch is available for Canadians who just can’t get
enough. The lineup encompasses a range of branded products that
celebrate the iconic Spicy Zinger Sandwich. These items include
apparel such as T-shirts, crew necks, and hats, featuring playful
and eye-catching designs that highlight the Zinger's fiery
