Do you plan to partake in KFCs Fried Chicken and Donuts basket?
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money...ed/4814937002/
KFC is bringing fried chicken and doughnuts to the masses. After a successful pilot last fall in select Virginia and Pittsburgh restaurants, the Louisville-based fast-food chain announced Thursday that the limited-time Kentucky Fried Chicken & Donuts will be released starting Monday, Feb. 24 at participating restaurants nationwide. The sweet and savory meals are available as a sandwich – a chicken fillet between two warm glazed donuts – or as a basket with choice of tenders or bone-in chicken with one or two donuts depending on the meal. The sandwiches and baskets will be sold through March 16 or while supplies last with prices ranging from $5.49 to $7.99. Hot donuts also can be added to any meal. “Chicken & Donuts is the newest fried chicken trend we’re bringing to all of America,” said Andrea Zahumensky, KFC U.S. chief marketing officer, in a statement. “But not just any donut would do. Only a donut that’s glazed-to-order and served piping hot every single time can stand next to our hand-breaded fried chicken." Before Monday’s nationwide release, Chicken & Donuts will debut from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 22 in a Los Angeles pop-up shop called “The Colonel’s (Chicken &) Donut Shop” at 615 North La Brea Ave. The first 50 qualifying guests 16 or older at the pop-up get a free Colonel’s Dozen with six tenders and six donuts. Walk-ups are welcome, KFC said in its release, but you can RSVP at an Eventbrite page too. The chicken chain recently announced another new limited-item: KFC X Crocs Bucket Clogs, a low-to-the-ground pair of soles covered in a fried chicken print that comes with removable, chicken-scented Jibbitz charms so it can smell like the fried protein. |

Nope. Just another ploy by a company that is desperately trying to remain relevant. This whole thing seems to me, to be a "bridge too far".

This looks like an abomination, but the marketing makes it look like a tasty abomination.

The donuts are sweet based and the chicken is salt based. Would these tastes go well in the mouth the same time?

I find the idea gross. I've never been interested in trying chicken and waffles but that seems way better than this idea

I think I'd go for the chicken tender sandwich instead of a basket. Why prolong the inevitable?
