# German-Style Sausage Wraps The KFC Japan German Twister is Made with a Sausage, Potatoes and More By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2018-08-22 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/german-twister References: [brandeating](https://www.brandeating.com/2018/08/kfc-releases-new-sausage-and-potato-german-twister-in-japan.html) & [kfc.co.jp](https://www.kfc.co.jp) The [KFC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kentucky-fried-chicken-wraps) Japan German Twister has been unveiled by the [QSR](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kfc-4) brand as a new menu item that is something of a departure from what they usually offer patrons. The [wrap-style sandwich](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-tomato-chicken-mcwraps) consists of a pork sausage that has been wrapped in a flour tortilla with potatoes, lettuce, a sweet & sour pickle sauce and mustard for a delicious, all-in-one meal option. The tasty menu item likely comes in response to the growing consumer demand for convenient food varieties that can be easily consumed in a mess-free manner when commuting or on-the-go. The KFC Japan German Twister sandwich is available exclusively in Japan for a limited time at a cost of 380 yen.
