Spicy Popcorn Chicken Meals

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Jack in the Box's Popcorn Chicken Combos are Served with Fries

— March 29, 2020 — Lifestyle
It seems that Jack in the Box is giving KFC a run for its money with its new Popcorn Chicken and Popcorn Chicken Combos.

Though not yet available nationwide, Jack in the Box has begun selling Popcorn Chicken in Classic and Spicy varieties. The Classic Popcorn Chicken consists of bite-sized pieces of all-white meat chicken coated in a crispy breading, while the Spicy Popcorn Chicken features the same all-white meat chicken finished with a spicy buffalo breading. Both varieties are available as part of the new Popcorn Chicken Combos, which are served with a side of French fries, the chain's signature buttermilk ranch sauce, and a small fountain drink.

According to Jack in the Box, Popcorn Chicken will be available nationwide as of March 30th.
