A day steeped in haze and tradition, celebrated by enthusiasts of a particular green herb. But this year, the air is filled with an aroma more tantalizing than any strain of white widow or purple haze – the unmistakable scent of KFC’s Saucy Nuggets.

Once inside, a team of “Sauce-perts” and “Nugg-tenders” led by chef/influencer Ian Fujimoto, were stationed at each of the five different flavor stations. Guiding over 1,000 guests through the experience, they explained the ingredients and flavors in each sauce, offering opportunities to smell and sample each of KFC’s limited edition flavors: Georgia Gold, Nashville Hot, Sticky Chicky, Sriracha Honey and Korean BBQ. (The herbs for KFC’s top-secret Original Recipe were covered in blacked-out boxes.)
