The fast-food chicken sandwich war soldiers on thanks to KFC and their new fried chicken sandwich where two glazed donuts act as the bun.
Per Business Insider, KFC is testing a “chicken and donuts” menu at 40 different locations in three different markets: Norfolk and Richmond, Virginia and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Depending on how the test menu does, the “chicken and donuts” menu could be expanded nationwide.
In addition to the fried chicken donut sandwich, also available are two basket meals featuring either regular fried chicken or chicken tenders with two donuts on the side.

No doubt -- this is the result of KFC Execs seeing the @PopeyesChicken sandwich craze while in a board meeting. They just made a sandwich out of whatever was nearest.
