   KFC to Put Cheese on Donuts
   
   
   If you thought the cronut was an odd dessert, just wait until you hear about KFC's latest menu offering. According to the Consumerist, KFC Indonesia's newest addition is a cheese topped donut. Participating locations will offer donuts with a mixture of shredded Swiss and cheddar sprinkled on top. And strangely enough, an advertisement pairs the item with Hazelnut-flavored coffee.
   My question would you buy it.

   I will try anything once. It probably wouldn't taste bad, just different than what we're used to.

   Why not? It is always good to try out new things. Moreover. KFC is a reputed brand and I believe that whatever it experiments it cannot be a flop. Donut topped with cheese will definitely tastes yummy. So, lets try.

   bleh not a chance. Of course my first job many years ago was at a KFC and I never eat there anyway, but this just sounds absolutely disgusting.

   KFC around here stands for Kentucky Fried Chicken!  I've never heard of KFC Coffee.  We have Honey Dew Donuts, Bess Eaton, Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, Willoughby's (an hour from here), and Bruegger's Bagels.  There are other private donut shops around.
   
   The Dunkin Donuts in town starting a sandwich.  It's 2 maple glazed donuts with a fried egg and bacon inside.
   
   I like my donut sweet and gooey.  I don't think I'd like it with cheese unless it was a pizza donut with sauce.

      I from the states also but they are starting it in Indonesia but I really do not think it is something that will last, Maybe if hey started a small donut menu I may work but not this.

   Cheese and donuts...? Two great tastes, but I'm not sure they would go so great together.

      Maybe if they cut through the donut then add a few pieces of bacon on it they may have something there.

   Cheddar cheese on top of apple pie has been served since the 1920s or 1930s at least in diners, so cheese-and-sweet sometimes go together. I don't know about donut and cheese, tho. Maybe Asiago cheese would be better than Swiss and cheddar, because Asiago cheese bread tastes a little sweet to me, and is good.

      I agree with you but as a sweet donut with cheese on top I really d not think it goes well at all.

      Defintely not good if the donut is a glazed donut. An apple fritter might be good with just a little Asiago cheese, unless the fritter was covered in sugar glazing like Tim Horton's - not good then.

   I like chocolate fudge ice-cream, but I also like steak. I doubt the two would go well together though, nor does that make it a good food because it's the best of both worlds (in my opinion).
   
   However I can imagine cheese working with donuts. As I don't like cheese I can't say, but I speculate there are people who wouldn't mind it. After all there has to be taste tests otherwise KFC's marketing teams wouldn't allow it due to the loss of profit.
   
   Personally I wouldn't buy it, but it sure looks nice in the picture you linked, and many will probably go for it.
