Chick-fil-A Announces the Return of Fan-Favorite Sandwich and Milkshake
September 24, 2024
Chick-fil-A has announced the return of a popular fan-favorite sandwich, along with a classic Southern sweet treat that’s been on hiatus for over a decade.
A press release announcement revealed that along with the new Spicy Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich, which is only available for a short time at certain restaurants, the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich will be making a comeback on menus across the country.
And it’s hardly the only item returning this season. Following a 13-year absence and countless requests for its reappearance, the Banana Pudding Milkshake is returning to menus across the country, offering a refreshing take on the beloved treat. Customers have been clamoring for this seasonal delight since it first debuted in 2011. The sweet and creamy milkshake has soothing, cooling flavors. It is created with Chick-fil-A’s Icedream dessert, real bananas, and crumbled vanilla wafer cookies. It is garnished with whipped cream and a cherry.
Returning to the menu by popular demand, the brand’s first-ever twist on the Original Chicken Sandwich in 2023 was the limited-edition Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich, which became an instant favorite among consumers. Served on a toasted bun with mild pickled jalapeños and a Chick-fil-A filet drizzled with honey and topped with pimento cheese, this sandwich is making a bold comeback this time around with the option to have it spicy as well.
Chick-fil-A Launches a Streaming Channel
This isn’t the only development that the national chicken chain has launched recently.
Over the summer, it was announced that the fast-food giant was entering the streaming platform wars. Chick-fil-A has reportedly been working with several major production companies, including some of the studios, to create family-friendly television, particularly in the unscripted genre. Acquisition and licensing of content are still in discussion.
Glassman Media, the production company behind NBC’s “The Wall,” and Michael Sugar’s Sugar23, the brains behind Netflix series like “13 Reasons Why,” have both pitched a family-friendly game show. It appears that this new game show has been handed a 10-episode order.
The anticipated cost of unscripted budgets for each half-hour is $400,000. The intention is to make the premiere later this year, according to insiders who talked with Deadline. Animation and scripted productions are also being discussed, and lead programming guru Brian Gibson has been in talks with other producers. Gibson has worked on projects such as the History remake of “Top Gear” and Fox’s adaptation of “The X Factor.”
