Attention, fast food aficionados and KFC enthusiasts! Prepare your taste buds for a blast from the past because KFC is reviving a beloved classic from its culinary vault.
For those who have felt the pang of loss when a favorite menu item vanishes, you understand the unique blend of nostalgia and craving that can only be satisfied by that special dish.
Well, it's time to rejoice because KFC is answering your fried food prayers—for a limited time.
The iconic Potato Wedges are making a triumphant return to the KFC menu, but there's a catch: they're only back for two fleeting weeks.
Starting March 10, select restaurants in Tampa, Florida, will be serving up these crispy-on-the-outside, fluffy-on-the-inside slices of seasoned potato goodness. It's a short window of opportunity to relive the glory days of KFC's side dish offerings.
KFC has set the stage for a two-week encore of the Potato Wedges, and the future of this fan-favorite is in the hands of those who savor it.
The duration of their stay on the menu is a trial run, a test to gauge the public's passion for these savory slices. If the demand is high enough, who knows? We might see a nationwide rollout.
KFC's US President, Catherine Tan Gillespie, has thrown down the gauntlet, stating, “Our fans have commented, tweeted, and even petitioned for the return of KFC Potato Wedges, and we're thrilled to deliver on those feisty requests to bring them back to Tampa for a short time. Tampa, it's up to you if we bring them back nationally. No pressure!”

If you're in the Tampa area, you're in luck. Here are the locations where you can get your hands on the Potato Wedges:
- 1605 W. Kennedy Boulevard, Tampa, FL 33606
- 770 34th Street, N., St. Petersburg, FL 33713
- 4402 W. Gandy Boulevard, Tampa, FL 33611
- 3105 Havendale Boulevard, Auburndale, FL 33823
- 1492 N. Broadway Avenue, Bartow, FL 33830
You can order the Potato Wedges in restaurants, either as a standalone snack or as a side to complement your meal.
KFC suggests pairing them with their rich gravy or dipping them into the creamy and zesty Comeback Sauce for an extra flavor kick.
KFC has also announced that the item will only be available in restaurants for two weeks. Its potential full return will depend on customer demand.
Although, this chain isn't the only one stirring up nostalgia. Burger King has brought back The Steakhouse Bacon Whopper, a fan-favorite that's been resurrected by popular demand.

This Whopper variant is a meat-lover's dream, featuring A1 sauce, crispy onions, bacon, Swiss cheese, and a creamy peppercorn aioli.
Taco Bell is also joining the throwback trend with the introduction of the Steak & Queso Crunchwrap Sliders.
These snack-sized delights are a new take on the classic Crunchwrap, filled with grilled marinated steak, creamy chipotle sauce, pico de gallo, cheddar cheese, and a mini tostada, all wrapped in a warm flour tortilla.
