KFC Donut Sandwich: New Fried Chicken Dish Available in Three Cities | Eater
"A limited-time test sandwich puts a crispy fried chicken filet between two whole glazed doughnuts, offered at roughly 40 test locations in Pittsburgh, Richmond, and Norfolk. The sandwich is priced at $5.99 (or $7.99 as a combo), and participating outlets also sell a lower-priced “basket meal” that pairs bone-in chicken or two tenders with one or two doughnuts, plus individual glazed doughnuts for $1 each. The item riffs on familiar sweet-and-salty traditions like chicken-and-waffles and the Luther burger (which typically uses a halved, griddled doughnut), but uses two whole doughnuts instead. Early availability is small and online taste testing is limited — at least one attempt to recreate the dish with store-bought glazed doughnuts and a regular fried chicken filet was underwhelming — though the company may expand the concept nationally or introduce even more extravagant variations if diners embrace it." - Greg Morabito
