(CNN) — Kentucky Fried Chicken is going to sell a new menu item that contains no chicken — but tastes like it does. The new plant-based fried chicken nugget alternative, called Beyond Fried Chicken, will be added to menus nationwide beginning Monday, Jan. 10 for a limited time. “The taste is so good that they might choose it over regular fried chicken,” Hochman said. KFC’s Beyond Fried Chicken had a trial run in 2020 in select US cities including Los Angeles, Charlotte, North Carolina and Nashville, Tennessee. Restaurants will receive Beyond Fried Chicken already pre-breaded and fried and in-store employees will re-fry it before serving.
