(WJW) -- Fast food chicken chain KFC plans to bring a couple of fan favorite items back to its menus nationwide.

Starting Aug. 18, you'll once again be able to fill your belly with KFC's Potato Wedges, which were discontinued in 2020.

Showcasing a big demand for the potato wedges, KFC did a special release of the spuds in Tampa which led to a sellout in some restaurants, according to a news release.
