TORONTO, May 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- After a viral, ice-cold scavenger hunt across Toronto, KFC Canada is flipping the switch with a drop of its own that brings the heat: the Zinger Drip menu. The lineup offers bold, saucy and spicy items including the Zinger Drip Sauce Buckets, Zinger Drip Sandwich and Zinger Drip Buckets available with Popcorn Chicken and Hot Wings.

KFC launched this menu in the spiciest way possible, with Torontonians spotting Colonel Sanders aka ‘Spiceman’ driving around the city livestreaming the whole experience. Stopping at KFC locations, fans got the chance to try the new menu items with the Spiceman himself. The consensus: the Zinger Drip Sauce is so Finger Lickin’ Good it’s going to be your new go-to for all dipping needs.

“We always want to show up for fans in fun and unexpected ways, keeping a pulse on what is resonating with them,” says Jordan Sequeira, Sr. Marketing Manager, at KFC Canada. “Canadians aren’t holding back on sauce, so neither are we, and the Zinger Drip menu is our take on what they're looking for: more sauce, heat, and flavour in every bite.”

As demand for sauce-forward menus continues to rise, KFC is stepping into the spotlight with the Zinger Drip menu, made for all dipping desires. All the fan favourite KFC staples are coated with this new spicy, flavourful and craveworthy Zinger Drip sauce, making every bite as satisfying as the last. Available for a limited time at participating KFC locations nationwide and on the KFC app.
