KFC customers have been relentlessly begging the chain to bring back a beloved discontinued menu item for years, with one even going so far as to create a petition that garnered thousands of signatures.
The debut is big news considering that 2014 was the last time KFC offered Twister Wraps in the United States, though the item has been available in some international markets like Canada, the United Kingdom, and South Africa.
The catch with this launch, however, is that KFC is currently only testing the new Twister Wraps in Nashville, Tenn., for a limited time.
Fast-food chains often use limited test runs such as these to gauge whether a new offering is popular enough to be offered nationwide. So, KFC fans can hope the Nashville debut is successful enough to support a wider rollout further down the road.
Though KFC is perhaps best known for its classic bone-in fried chicken, the chain has been putting a much bigger emphasis on wraps over the last year and a half.
The limited-time wraps are no longer available, but customers shouldn't rule out the possibility that they'll return in the future given that KFC has already brought them back once before.
In other KFC news, the chain dropped new Saucy Nuggets on April 1 that come in five flavors: Honey Sriracha (45 calories per nugget), Korean BBQ (45 calories), and Georgia Gold (60 calories).
KFC also unveiled a new value menu on April 9 with three meal options starting at $4.99. The "Taste of KFC Deals" lineup will be available through the end of the year.
