A fan-favorite menu item, Chicken & Waffles, is making a comeback at KFC after five years away.
The fast-food restaurant chain confirmed to "Good Morning America" that the classic combo returned April 28, the same day KFC introduced a new menu item, Strawberry & Crème Pie Poppers.
"Chicken & Waffles hasn't been on our menu in over five years, but it's one of those iconic combos our fans never stopped asking for," a KFC spokesperson said in an emailed statement to "GMA." "We've been listening, and bringing it back felt like the right kind of reunion of familiarity and indulgence all without sacrificing value."
The $7 Chicken & Waffles box features Liège-style waffles and comes with either three chicken tenders or two fried chicken pieces and one waffle paired with syrup from Mrs. Butterworth's.
