About this data
Most figures on this page (168 of 179 items) are the values recorded for KFC in the 2022 edition of MenuStat, a public archive of chain-restaurant nutrition disclosures, and may have been revised by the restaurant since; the remaining 11 come from the chain's current published nutrition information, as compiled in the Cindar restaurant database. Items marked ‡ are combinations assembled from the published figures of their components.
Data version 2026.05.1+ms2022-r5+official-1627oyq+c1+s3, retrieved October 23, 2026. Recipes, portion sizes and regional menus change; the restaurant's own current publication controls where the two differ. Figures are provided for general information and are not medical or dietary advice.
KFC and related marks are trademarks of their respective owners. Cindar and Hestia Studios are not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by KFC; the name appears here only to identify the restaurant these figures describe.
