KFC x Kraft Limited-Edition Offerings
Canadians are increasingly craving bold flavor profiles and surprising food pairings, yet they prefer to explore these new tastes through familiar, trusted brands. Addressing this appetite for innovation, this collaboration between KFC and Kraft (called Kraft Dinner or simply KD in Canada) merges KFC’s southern-style fried chicken expertise with KD’s renowned mac & cheese, creating three limited-edition offerings, which are as follows:
KD KFC Original Recipe Flavor Mac ‘n Cheese: Canadians can now elevate their KD with the Colonel’s iconic blend of eleven herbs and spices, adding a savory twist to the classic mac and cheese.
KD Mac & Cheese Chicken Sandwich: This indulgent creation pairs KFC’s signature triple-breaded, classically seasoned chicken with creamy original flavor KD, offering a truly cheesy and satisfying experience.
KD Mac & Cheese Snacker Wrap: Enjoy KFC’s crispy chicken tenders wrapped in a warm, fluffy tortilla with creamy original flavor KD, delivering a deliciously convenient and cheesy treat.
The KD KFC Original Recipe Flavor Mac ‘n Cheese is now available across grocery retailers in Canada, while the KD Mac & Cheese Chicken Sandwich and the KD Mac & Cheese Snacker Wrap are currently being offered at all KFC restaurants in the country.
“KD fans have always personalized their mac & cheese with their favorite flavors, and we’re excited to take that to a whole new level by partnering with KFC, another iconic comfort food brand,” said Brian Neumann, Head of Brand Communications, Kraft Heinz Canada, in a press release. “Just like when you think of mac n cheese you think of KD, fried chicken is synonymous with KFC. These drops will be the first time these two iconic flavors are coming together and the result is incredible. We can’t wait for our fans to try it.”
Katherine Bond-Debicki, Chief Marketing Officer at KFC Canada, added: “Our partnership with KD is KFC Canada’s largest brand partnership to date and the first to feature an exclusive menu launch with a grocery offering. By partnering with Canada’s favorite Mac ‘n Cheese, we’re excited to offer fans a bold flavor combination that is a must-try. Two iconic brands, known for delivering crave-worthy comfort, coming together to bring you an epic collaboration you never knew you needed.”
