VAUGHAN, CANADA,September 7, 2020– Around the world, KFC is famous for many things. Most notably, the unrivaled taste of its deliciously crispy fried chicken. Today, KFC Canada is announcing its latest innovation, the KFC Famous Chicken Chicken Sandwich, featuring KFC’s legendary Extra Crispy seasoning and premium Canadian ingredients that set the standard for what a truly famous fried chicken sandwich should taste like.

“We’ve spent 75 years making the world’s best-tasting fried chicken.
