KFC revamps its $5 meal deal as it battles McDonald's and Wendy's - but there's a catch
KFC has fired the lastest salvo in the fast food value wars - with a $5 meal deal plus other offers.
Like most fast food restaurants, KFC has seen sales fall this year - and is hoping the offer will lure back fast food fans.
McDonald's, Burger King and Wendy's all already have near identical $5 meal deals - with a choice of a burger, four chicken nuggets, fries and a drink.
But there is a catch with KFC's three different options - pictured below - in that none come wtih a drink.
The first has eight chicken nuggets, fries and two sauces. The second is a bowl of mashed potatoes, sweeet chorn and nuggetswith gravy and cheeses. The final is two pieces of fried chiicken plus mashed potato and gravy and a biscuit.

'As customers are looking for more value from brands, we're expanding our Taste of KFC lineup with new fan favorites like our nuggets and famous bowls, each for just $5,' said Nick Chavez, the company's marketing boss.
'These Taste of KFC Deals offer three choices – with something for everyone – at an incredible price.'
In addition to the $5 deals, KFC continues to offer its popular '$10 Tuesdays' deal - a bucket full of eight pieces of drumsticks and thighs.
Every day of the week, customers can also grab the $20 family deal – six pieces of chicken on the bone (two drumsticks, two thighs, one breast and one wing), four sides, and four biscuits.

McDonald's and Burger King have been undercut by Krispy Krunchy Chicken, which is offering a meal deal for just $4.
Lsat week, White Castle was the latest burger chain to enter the fast food price war - slashing the price of its famed sliders to the lowest amount in a decade.

Casual dining chains such as Applebee's have also waded into the value meal market in an attempt to pinch customers from fast food rivals such as McDonald's.
Applebee's move to compete with fast food chains echoes that of Chilli's which also recently its new 'Big Smasher' - a bigger version of the Big Mac - that comes with fries and a drink for under $10.
