KFC has left foodies totally divided after announcing a new ice cream flavor which some have dubbed the ”strangest” ever.
Every now and then, KFC is sure to come up with shocking ideas and collaborations – and this might be the most bizarre of them all.

Hackney Gelato are known to go for their original flavors, but this is out-there even for them.
The gravy gelato is just that – gelato flavored with KFC’s own gravy.
As they put it, the gravy “features rich notes of peppercorn and, of course, chicken“.
The bizarre combo may sound too gross for some – however, if you’re keen to see whether the savory treat actually works and makes sense, you’ll be in for a disappointment.
According to KFC website, the frozen gravy gelato is not available in the USA – at least for now.
But if you’re planning a trip to the UK or London this spring and summer, you’re in luck, as the new addition will be available online on the KFC shop.
The tub – which comes in red and gold packaging – sells for £5.50 (or $7.30) and all proceeds go to the KFC Youth Foundation, empowering young people across the UK.
It’s available from 15 May from 1pm, so if this sounds a bit like you, make sure to set your alarm.
‘That’s like putting pickles on Crème Brule’
Needless to say, the brand new menu addition has sparked a fierce debate online.
After seeing the news on X – formerly known as Twitter – one social media user cried out in sheer horror.
”what in the actual f**k. That’s like putting pickles on Crème Brule.”
Someone else was just as baffled by the ”strangest” dessert flavor, writing: ”How is this going to work?”
”This can’t possibly be legal,” thought another foodie.
”Wait – is this a leftover April fools joke? Come on! I love ice cream & I love a good white country gravy BUT the two don’t dance together ya’ll!” a fourth commented under the tweet.
”That sounds absolutely disgusting…” someone else penned.
This comes after KFC brought back a beloved menu item after five years.
The Kentucky-based fast food giant announced April 28 that Chicken & Waffles are returning for the first time since 2019.
The crowd-pleaser pairs KFC’s signature fried chicken with thick, golden brown Liège-style waffles.
The pearl sugar waffles are served with a side of sweet Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup.
“We believe Chicken & Waffles is an American icon,” said KFC President Catherine Tan-Gillespie.
“Flavorful, juicy and freshly fried secret recipe chicken, paired with sweet, golden waffles and gooey syrup – it’s bold, it’s delicious, and it’s back on our menu just in time for Mother’s Day!”
