KFC launched a new food item to its restaurant chain unit in Canada, and it is called the Kentucky Scorcher. The new sandwich offering has been described as the fast-food chain's spiciest creation yet.
The new KFC Canada's Kentucky Scorcher chicken sandwich is made from pure Canadian chicken breast and covered in the restaurant brand's signature scorcher sauce. Crunchy pickles and spicy mayonnaise have been added and served in a toasted bun.
The chicken fillet in the new Kentucky Scorcher has been thickly cut, so customers will surely be full with just one sandwich. Moreover, since this new item is really spicy, as its name suggests, KFC Canada is also serving this food with free milk to tame the scorchingly hot spiciness. The free milk will be available until supplies last.
As per the Daily Hive, on the Scoville heat scale for chili peppers, KFC's scorcher sauce hits the level of 13,500. This level of spiciness is said to be double of Tabasco's. Surely, this level of hotness needs milk. Customers are also being warned about the fiery heat.
"Spicy offerings these days are made for the masses and lack the intensity Canadians are craving, so we set out to create a sandwich that truly delivers on heat," KFC Canada's director of brand and innovation, Ira Dubinsky, said in a press release. "We tested dozens of hot sauces and peppers to ensure a balanced combination of spice and flavor, and the Scorcher sauce brought tears to our eyes. This chicken is not for chickens and we have got the milk in case you need it."
Fans and diners can now get their Kentucky Scorcher at any KFC store outlet in Canada. They can also purchase this item through online ordering set up via www.kfc.ca and the KFC App. it should be noted that while the new sandwich is available nationwide, some of the locations may still not have it.
Finally, KFC Canada will be selling the Kentucky Scorcher for a limited time only. Thus, KFC lovers must head to the nearest store to try this new product before it is taken off the menu.
