Chicken Fries

by Burger King

2005 – 2012 IT CAME BACK

Back. Burger King returned them as a limited-time item in August 2014, after fans were tweeting about them as often as once every 40 seconds, and made them permanent in March 2015. They are still on US menus in 2026.

Breaded white-meat chicken cut into fry-shaped sticks, so you could dip with one hand and steer with the other. Burger King dropped them in 2012 to make room on the menu, and the internet refused to let it go.

🧾 One more thingThe 2005 launch ads starred Coq Roq, a fake masked metal band invented by Burger King's ad agency. Slipknot's lawyers said the masks had been copied, and both sides eventually dropped their claims.
