A nostalgic classic returns for a limited time, alongside a new option to bring everyone to the table
Plano, TX (RestaurantNews.com) KFC® is expanding how guests can order across occasions with the return of the Twister and the debut of the $20 Build a Bucket, a new bundle designed for sharing and variety. Together, the two offerings make it easier to enjoy KFC whether you’re grabbing something for yourself or feeding a crowd.
“In today’s market, value can’t just mean price, and portability can’t come at the expense of satisfaction,” said Melissa Cash, Chief Marketing Officer, KFC U.S. “We brought back the original Twister fans love as a wrap that stands on its own, now with even more ways to customize it, including a bacon option. And for those moments meant to be shared, we designed the $20 Build a Bucket to deliver generous portions with built-in flexibility. It’s about delivering real abundance and real choice for solo meals and shared tables alike, without compromising on value.”
The Return of the Twister
Back on the menu by popular demand, the Twister features two crispy Original Recipe® Tenders layered with fresh lettuce, diced tomato and KFC’s signature Pepper Mayo inside a warm tortilla. Reintroduced with a more substantial build, it returns as a wrap meant to satisfy as the main event, not just a side.
Available in two builds:
- Twister Classic: Two crispy Original Recipe® Tenders with lettuce, tomato and Pepper Mayo.
- Twister Bacon: Two crispy Original Recipe® Tenders topped with hickory-smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato and Pepper Mayo.
For those who like heat, fans can add Zinger Sauce for an extra kick. Whether it’s a commute, a lunch break or a late-night run, the Twister offers portability with a filling punch.
Introducing the $20 Build a Bucket: The Bundle That Proves Sharing Doesn’t Mean Compromise
When dinner turns into a debate, the $20 Build a Bucket is KFC’s answer. The customizable meal is designed to simplify ordering for the table while still giving everyone a say.
- 8 pieces of Chicken on the Bone or 8 Original Recipe® Tenders

From busy weeknights to last-minute gatherings, this shareable option takes the guesswork out of mealtime and puts the focus back on enjoying time together.
Built for Today, Rooted in Original Recipe®
