Macaroni Bun Chicken Burgers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

KFC Singapore's New Mac 'N Cheese Zinger is Like Two Meals in One

— February 14, 2019 — Lifestyle
KFC Singapore is taking comfort food to a whole new level by combining fried chicken and mac and cheese into an epic sandwich called the Mac 'n Cheese Zinger. With this new sandwich, you never have to choose between crispy or cheesy again.

The Mac 'n Cheese Zinger is a brand new menu item from KFC Singapore that "spares the bun." Instead of buns, the sandwich features two scoops of mac and cheese molded into the shape of patties, breaded and then deep-fried. Between the buns is a crispy Zinger chicken filet, slices of turkey bacon, lettuce, tomato, and even more cheese sauce.

While certainly not for those with small appetites, the new sandwich is perfect for those who love to sample innovative food hybrids.
