Famichiki Red (ファミチキ レッド in japanese), whose commercial character is Rikako Yagi, is currently holding a competition to determine the best Famichiki Red holy land at FamilyMart Official X.
“ファミチキ レッド,” which has sold over 5.5 million meals in the two weeks since its release, takes advantage of the juicy meat flavor of the conventional “Famichiki (boneless)” and combines multiple chili peppers to create a “slowly spicy” flavor that is “strongly delicious and gradually spicy.” *Sales results as of June 24 (Tuesday) to July 7 (Monday), 2025
At the first bite, you can taste the umami of Famichiki, but as you continue to eat, you gradually feel the deep spiciness of the chili, creating an addictive, exquisite spiciness. As mentioned in the article above, at the new product launch event, which featured guest Yagi Rikako, Yagi tested how many seconds it actually took for the spiciness to “slowly” hit her with a timer set up on stage, and the time was 10.66 seconds.
