TikTok can't get enough of limited edition Aussie snack: Red Rooster's boldest fried chicken flavour yet

7NEWS07-05-2025

If there's one thing Aussies can identify almost immediately; it's a delicious, mouth-watering snack.
And there's a savoury treat on the block that we can't get enough of, and it's already risen to fame on social media.
Meet Red Rooster's limited-edition snack, Buffalo Crunch, the latest fried chicken flavour sensation to turn up the heat.
As one of Australia's most beloved fast-food outlets, Red Rooster has already made a bold mark with a lineup of mouth-watering fried chicken flavours like Hot Honey, Reds Hot Spicy, Sweet N Sour and Smokin' BBQ.
Now, they're stepping up their flavour game once more with a spicy, tangy twist inspired by a global favourite and tailored for Aussie tastebuds.
Buffalo Crunch is everything fans of fried chicken and bold flavours have been waiting for. Crispy, juicy chicken is coated or dipped in a buttery, sweet sauce that brings just the right amount of heat — creating an addictive bite that lingers, beckoning diners back for more.
Whether it's their game-changing Crunchy Fried Chicken, Aussie chicken tenders or classic nuggets and chips, this flavour hits all the right notes. It's the kind of saucy, messy, totally satisfying chicken moment that social media dreams are made of.
The new Buffalo Crunch flavour launches nationally today and will be available for a limited time.
Starting at just $2.50 per piece, it comes in a variety of serving sizes, from 2-piece combos and Satisfryer packs to share boxes with 6, 12 or 18 pieces.
Red Rooster is even offering tubs of their new Buffalo sauce to take home, perfect for those who like their meals extra saucy.
But the flavour innovation doesn't stop there. Red Rooster has also unveiled Buffalo Wings, available exclusively via their online platform — part of the Reds Exclusives menu.
These wings are made from crispy Buttermilk Wings and come generously coated in the same signature Buffalo Sauce.
Only available in packs of six or ten, these wings are not offered over the counter.
To order them, customers need to use the Red Rooster App or website, choosing either Click & Collect or Delivery.
For an extra flavour kick, Red Rooster suggests pairing the Buffalo Crunch with their Blackened Aioli sauce, a zesty take on classic ranch, available for just $1 more. It's the perfect match for anyone chasing that full Buffalo experience.
Whether you're driving through, dining in, or ordering from the comfort of home, Buffalo Crunch is Red Rooster's boldest and most flavourful fried chicken release yet.

‘I never thought I would marry and have children': What made Ed Kavalee change his mind

This story is part of the June 22 edition of Sunday Life. See all 15 stories. Ed Kavalee is a comedian best known for being a regular on Network Ten's Have You Been Paying Attention? Here, the 45-year-old talks about being looked after by his older sister, his celebrity crush frequenting his former workplace and how he met his wife. I never got to know my maternal grandmother, Betty – she died when I was young. She was very close to my mother, Macy. Mum felt that loss as she was a single mother raising two young children. Mum has always been a 'head down and get on with the job' type of person. Mum met my older sister Tippy's father – a Thai student – in Australia, and they married and lived in Asia. They divorced after a few years, but I carry his surname. Mum was working at the Oriental Hotel in Bangkok when she met my dad, Charles. She was in charge of looking after high-profile guests. Dad was known as the 'duck-feather king' in Thailand; he was an Aussie businessman who had factories that made down and duck-feather products. When Charles found out my mum was pregnant with me, he didn't want to know. She became ill and moved back to Australia. After I was born, Mum worked as a public servant, an interior designer and even modelled. She didn't get to go to university as her father discouraged it. Tippy looked after me when Mum worked. That wasn't easy for her, as she was a child herself, but I am forever grateful. She has a Thai softness about her. She went to boarding school when I was nine. Mum did remarry once. It wasn't a wonderful situation. After that, I don't remember her having many boyfriends. I would have loved that for her – to have someone. But she didn't pine for what wasn't to be – she dealt with life and kept moving. I remember seeing improv [improvisational theatre] for the first time while studying for an arts degree in Sydney. Mum said if that's something you want to do, then do it, but warned it was a hard road. She got me to meet a friend of hers, a producer who gave me advice. I had a celebrity crush

Dr Chris Brown: Dancing With The Stars host reminds Perth he still enjoys vet work between TV appearances

His list of talents include TV host, dance floor cheerleader, and global adventurer, but the one CV item Dr Chris Brown is quizzed on above all is whether he still works as a vet. 'This would be the question I get asked most in life,' he told The West Australian while visiting Crown Perth this week. 'And I actually do.' The star returns to his Bondi practice regularly, declaring 'it's what reminds me of who I am' — though his feisty patients don't always show their appreciation. The popular Telethon alumnus stopped by Perth Children's Hospital earlier this to offer some gifts, pet advice, and absolutely no tips on mastering the ballroom despite returning as co-host of Dancing With The Stars. Although this dog handler might be learning some new tricks behind the scenes. 'There are moments where I'll pull aside some of the pros and be like, 'That knee slide, how do you do that?'' he said. 'So I have spent just a little bit of time in the studio, learning a few little bits and pieces.' Co-hosting with Sonia Kruger, Brown said the pair's blink-and-you'll-miss-it dance routines to open each show can feel like an eternity, but he's found a way to become a 'master at the two-second shimmy'. He said his on-screen dynamic with the 2025 Gold Logie nominee is driven by relentless banter, with the pair constantly 'throwing curveballs' and hoping the other will crack. The duo will be reprising their roles as Logies red carpet hosts on August 3. However, Brown admitted he'd be leaving much of the fashion commentary to his wing woman, because unfortunately, he shares more with man's best friend than most. 'I'm colour blind, so I just have a golden rule that I never ask, I never make any comment around what anyone's wearing, or the colour of what they're wearing, or anything to do with fashion whatsoever,' he revealed. 'It's just a minefield.' Fortunately, the animal expert is far better suited to steer his new show Once in a Lifetime, set to debut later this year. It sees Brown leave the comfort of the studio, and the vet hospital, venturing abroad with far-from-qualified Aussie personalities as they attempt to treat unpredictable animals with more than just a humorous line or two. 'The catch is that they have to be my completely untrained veterinary assistant. It's a crazy concept, but it works,' he said. Guests include Mick Molloy, Kate Ritchie, Matt Preston, and Amanda Keller, with the star joking he was 'relieved we got everyone back alive, because it was an insurance nightmare'. Despite being worlds away from home, Brown struggled to escape the same familiar interrogation from his guests surrounding his qualifications. They would ask: 'Are you actually qualified to do this?' 'And I had to remind them, yes I am — but they're not,' he joked. 'So we had some fun.' Dancing With The Stars airs every Sunday on Seven and 7plus from 7pm.
