From The Club

When two big brands team up like KFC and F1® THE MOVIE, the result is a juicy, can’t-miss collab! Fill Ups are back and there’s no better time to race to KFC drive-thrus than now. I love that there are four variations to choose from and each one has the same price! For just $7, that Famous Bowl Fill Up is more than enough for me, lol. 😂 And, of course, their new Peaches & Cream Soda is definitely a must-try. It sounds so refreshing!
