## Story

Kentucky Fried Chicken is bringing back its Fried Chicken & Waffles dish from March 23 through April 29 while supplies last, according to a Nation’s Restaurant News report .

The fast-food brand first offered the dish temporarily in November and December 2018 and cited “ an overwhelmingly positive response from customers” as the reason for the return, according to the article.

“We expected people would love Kentucky Fried Chicken & Waffles when we launched it in 2018,” KFC chief marketing officer Andrea Zahumensky said in a statement, according to the article. “But we underestimated how much love there would be so we’re bringing it back just four months later. Too soon? Not a minute.”
