KFC joins the Squid Game craze with exclusive menu in Spain
Not just McDonald's! After the success of the Squid Game meal offered in Japan, a competing fast food chain has ventured to create its own meal inspired by the Netflix series. What can we eat at KFC?
The first season of "Squid Game" was a global hit. The series' second installment also achieved record viewership, accompanied by plenty of controversies. The show has only seven episodes and ends with a suspenseful cliffhanger. The music from the series is trending, fans are creating numerous conspiracy theories, and they are also betting on which contestants will survive.
The tale of consumerism, greed, human nature, and bloody games has achieved its purpose, again becoming number one. At the same time, the machine that the series theoretically attempts to fight against has been set in motion again. You can buy pajamas in chain stores that look like the Squid Game contestants' tracksuits, while meals inspired by the series appear in restaurants. The first meal related to the Netflix series was introduced by McDonald's.
The set is available exclusively in Japan and includes: 10 McNuggets, large or medium fries, a drink, Korean BBQ sauce, and a Dalgona cookie with the M symbol.
KFC introduces the Squid Game set
The American giant specializing in fried chicken was inspired by McDonald's and decided to enter the Squid Game world too. Fans of the series (and chicken) in Spain (and for now, only in Spain) can taste two items related to the show:
- A bucket of spicy wings with Korean BBQ sauce (five, 10, or 12 pieces).
- A burger with an original chicken breast filet glazed in Korean BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, a mix of cabbage, cucumber, and Red Seed Bread—a distinctive pink bun. Available as a single or double.
Both options can, of course, be ordered in a set with a drink and fries. The appeal of the meal is further enhanced by its packaging, which references the aesthetics of the Netflix hit. Isn't it the perfect time for a trip to Spain?
