FAST FOOD NEWS: Burger King Buffalo Chicken Fries

Burger King Buffalo Chicken Fries

Impulsive Buy reader Rory sent in this photo of a Burger King coupon book featuring a new Buffalo-flavored variety of their Chicken Fries. The mailer is being sent to folks in Virginia, so it might just be a test item for now. (Update: It’s rolled out nationwide.) It’s the second new Chicken Fries variety of 2015. The chain offered Fiery Chicken Fries in August.
