KFC is now serving doughnuts at dozens of locations. On Tuesday, the fried-chicken chain announced that it was testing its "Chicken and Donuts" menu items for a limited time at more than 40 locations in Norfolk and Richmond, Virginia, and Pittsburgh.
The options are a basket that pairs chicken on the bone or chicken tenders with one or two doughnuts, and a sandwich with a chicken fillet between two glazed doughnuts.

'MURICA!

Ooh. There's an independent in Houston: Sam's Fried Chicken and Donuts. God Bless Texas.

Urk! KFC.

It's like KFC is working for insulin manufacturers.

It takes some real willpower to resist, but I'm going to hold off on this one.

This is why I switched to Lee's and Popeye's - their chicken doesn't need gimmicks. (and the honey is real.)

I love me some Popeye's. My old office had a Popeye's a half block away. Couple pieces of chicken, red beans and rice....that's a meal.

Um, I like Popeye's but contrived shortages and the BYOB(bring your own bun) policy they instituted last week are clearly a gimmick and a bigger one than KFC's donuts-chicken sandwich.

Another vote for Popeye's. I do like the chicken and they have some tasty sides. KFC is never on my list can't stand it.

Their chicken doesn't need a bun. You get a biscuit, which is infinitely better.

Even Raising Cain's Texas toast is better than any bun. .... oh, those chicken fingers....


I think I've just lost my elect salvation for even hinting that Chik-Fil-A is inferior.

No donuts?

I've only had Popeye's once. I wasn't impressed. I thought it was supposed to be spicy? I mean it was okay, but it just tasted like regular ol' fried chicken to me.

KFC abandons healthier menu options after 'no-one bought them'

 

[DRob]

No one bought much of anything from the KFC on Southport Rd just west of I-65. It's out of business. Must be the influence of the 25 or so other restaurants within a half mile. And then there's Long's Bakery a couple of miles farther west! They have no chicken but nobody else can match their donuts.
