Thought this was interesting. KFC haven't added anything new to the menu in months. December's promotion was a mix of existing food and since then the menu has stayed as it is. So today I notice billboards up around town for a burrito.

They do three of them. Original, Zinger and Pulled Chicken. Personally I was hoping the pulled chicken range would die, not get bigger. Anyway, anyone had one of these? I kind of don't want to be first.

Original Recipe Burrito
Our classic Original Recipe Chicken as you've never seen it before. A soft tortilla packed with spicy rice, beans and salsa, then toasted to perfection - this burrito is perfect for lunch on the go.

Zinger Chicken Burrito
Pack more into lunch with Zinger Chicken, spicy rice, beans and salsa all wrapped in a soft tortilla, then toasted to perfection. Add a little spice to your lunch break!

Pulled Chicken Burrito
Take time to appreciate the taste of slow-cooked Pulled Chicken with authentic spicy rice, beans and salsa, all wrapped in a soft tortilla shell, then toasted to perfection. This burrito demands your full appreciation.

The KFC near me will get these 6 months after every one else does.

An American restaurant in the United Kingdom selling Mexican food.

Good to see more Burritos here, but why would I get KFC instead of Tortilla? Or any other Mexican place.

 

[Dennis]

Are the burritos Mexican food or American 'Mexican' food?

Tortilla is only in London and a small select few other places. Personally, there aren't any mexican places within a rather large radius of me. Rather wish there were, mind.

 

[Necromanti]

Looks like a glorified Twister wrap.

Most towns I visit have at least some sort of buritto place these days

Pinto is pretty big up here, quite a few in Glasgow and Edinburgh.

No vegetarian version?

I forgot that KFC had Chicken in there somewhere, ah well.

Speaking of which, does anyone know a good Burrito places in London (and for that matter in Birmingham)

I ate one near Angel Station, and it was really good. Would love to try other places out.

 

[Porcile]

That pulled chicken shit was disgusting.

 

[Delta Assault]

Why don't they just go ahead and bring Taco Bell over?

That Demolition Man reference has to be explained to our UK brethren one of these days.

I was going to say Chilango's by Angel station, but you've already been there. The roasted pork burrito is so damn good.

 

[Rug Monkey]

Easy enough to make. Their Zingers should be called Fizzles just nowhere near hot enough.

Damn fine selection of recipes

There's one in Lakeside shopping centre, I think. Was surprised when I saw it.

 

[thelatestmodel]

That's pretty funny considering they don't even have Taco Bell. (No, having the one doesn't count)

I imagine your average Brit has not heard of a burrito - they're always called "wraps" over there.

 

[A.D. Skinner]

Looks like pulled chicken for me!

One in Sheffield opened up last year over here and we're getting a second one in the next few months :3

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

New type of beans or their standard bbq ones?

They lost the franchise wars in the uk

No mate, we call them wappitywipwraps. Get it right.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone calling a burrito a wrap here.

Texan friend of mine said mexican fast food is basically the same ingredients it's just folded differently

 

[LyleLanley]

Nothing like some nice authentic Mexican food from your local KFC.

Mexican fast food is just an endless variety of rice, beans and meat housed in various kinds of tortillas.

 

[MrE26]

Had one earlier. Needless to say, it looked absolutely nothing like the pictures & was actually folded into a square & had a spoonful of rice at the most in there.

 

[HazySaiyan]

KFC is not the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Mexican food.

KFC and Taco Bell are owned by the same company.

 

[Kyari]

Both of the KFCs in Newcastle shut down over the last few years ....

 

[CreepingFear]

KFC and Taco Bell are owned by the same company.

That company is Yum. They also own Pizza Hut.

 

[Kyoufu]

My friend had one and said it was a bit small and mediocre.

It's all about Tortilla for Burritos.
