Good morning,
If you’re a fan of Cheetos and Burger King’s Chicken Fries, today is your lucky day.
Today, the fast-food giant is releasing Cheetos Chicken Fries in select stores in the US. The new product features “juicy white-meat chicken inside” and “a dangerously cheesy outside.”
The new Chicken Fries are supposedly mess-free, so they won’t stain diners’ hands orange. Grabbing a box of these shouldn’t set you back very much either, as a nine-piece order will only cost you $2.89.
This will be the at least the second collaboration between Frito-Lay and Burger King in 2016. Over the summer, the internet went berserk when Burger King released Mac N’ Cheetos.
