After KFC discontinued the Potato Wedges in 2020, fans immediately took to the internet to start a petition to bring them back—an initiative that has received more than 4,800 signatures and counting.
However, there is a catch with the return of the side dish.
Right now, the wedges are only being rolled out for a test period of two weeks, and are only available in Tampa, Florida, per the outlet Parade.
It is not clear why this area was chosen to be the testing site.
You can grab the wedges for a limited time from the spots on 1605 W. Kennedy Boulevard, Tampa, 770 34th Street, N., St, Petersburg, 4402 W. Gandy Boulevard, Tampa, 3105 Havendale Boulevard, Auburndale and 1492 N. Broadway Avenue, Bartow.
KFC confirmed that if the testing goes well, the wedges will return nationwide.
