While everyone else is fighting over chicken sandwiches, KFC is turning attention to plant-based "chicken."


KFC will test a Beyond Meat version of their fried chicken in one restaurant in Atlanta.
Customers will be asked their opinion on the taste and KFC will decide what they will do next.
The fake chicken test starts on Tuesday.
Would you try the plant-based chicken? Have you had the beef? What did you think?
