KFC rice
- ... that KFC rice is rice that is cooked with fried chicken in a rice cooker? Source: Pretty much all of them, but I'll just cite the Japanese Gadget News article that made it popular.
- ALT1: ... that KFC rice is named after the KFC Original Recipe fried chicken typically used in its preparation? Source: I guess KFC's official website should be enough.
- ALT2: ... that KFC rice is "really easy to customize"? Source: "Although it wasn't as flavorful as I would have liked it to be on its own, this dish was really easy to customize."
- ALT3: ... that KFC rice may have originated as a quick, cheap Christmas dinner, owing to the popularity of KFC in Japan? Source: "For those who don’t want to wait in line for hours after missing out on ordering special KFC Christmas dinners in advance, there is a DIY solution that apparently went viral among Twitter users in Japan. Behold: Devil Cooked Rice."

Created by AdoTang (talk). Self-nominated at 23:52, 22 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/KFC rice; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Article is pretty interesting and meets DYK requirements. All of the hooks are cited inline and verified and a QPQ has been provided. I'm okay with any of the hooks except for ALT1 (which seems too on-the-nose), but I think ALT0, if it is to be reused, needs to have all the links other than to KFC rice be removed since they're rather universal things and may just divert views away from the KFC rice article. Maybe I should try cooking this sometime too, this article made me hungry. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:18, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
