Last checked: 11 November 2026. KFC's guide says its information is correct as at February 2026, so newer limited-time items may be missing.
The short answer: KFC Australia lists energy in kilojoules (kJ), not calories. A Zinger Burger is 1,874 kJ (about 450 Calories), a Regular Chips is 1,186 kJ (about 280 Calories) and a Regular Pepsi is 434 kJ (about 100 Calories). KFC notes the average adult daily energy intake is 8,700 kJ. We convert kJ to Calories by dividing by 4.184 and rounding to the nearest 10, so treat the Calories column as an estimate.
How to read these numbers
- kJ is the official figure. The Calories column is our own conversion (kJ divided by 4.184). KFC says 1 Calorie is about 4.2 kJ.
- Combos include sides and a drink. Rows marked "Combo - Regular" are KFC's combo listings, so their kJ is higher than the item alone.
- Menu changes. KFC's page is dated February 2026. Items on promotion (for example Sub burgers and Dip'd Tenders) can change.
- Per restaurant. Menu items can vary by store, so use the numbers as a guide.

KFC allergens, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free
- Allergen guide: KFC's Nutrition and Allergen Guide page links to an ingredient and allergen guide (a PDF whose file name is dated December 2024) and to a separate guide for individual and promo items. We don't reproduce allergen lists, so check KFC's guide and tell the restaurant about any allergy before you order.
- Vegetarian: KFC's FAQ says its hot chips are vegetarian-friendly (cooked in canola oil, with no animal products, and the salt is the same), but it can't guarantee there is no cross-contamination with utensils and equipment. KFC also lists coleslaw (if you eat eggs), dinner rolls and burger buns, mashed potato without the gravy and the chocolate mousse as vegetarian-friendly.
- Vegan: KFC says it has options for plant-based diets, but it doesn't publish a vegan menu on the pages we read. Ask the restaurant.
- Gluten free: we found no gluten-free menu on the pages we read. KFC's allergen guide is the place to check ingredients.
- Halal: only some restaurants are halal certified. See KFC halal in Australia.
Healthier choices (KFC's own tips)
KFC's FAQ suggests choosing no-sugar drinks such as water or Pepsi Max, and choosing a regular serve of chips or a regular combo instead of large. See KFC menu prices for what things cost and KFC deals for offers.
