The KFC Famous Bowl has been a staple of the fast-food chicken joint’s menu since its inception and now, it’s getting a fresh update. Monday, KFC officials announced the KFC Smash’d Potato Bowl, a new take on the Famous Bowl. The new product uses a base of mashed potatoes, which are then topped with french fries and cheese.
