KFC Is Testing An Ice Cream Sandwich With An Unexpected Twist

KFC has been in its creative bag. In just the last month or so, it dropped a handbag full of pickles in The Netherlands, a new restaurant concept in Texas, and a fried chicken-flavored cereal in the UK. 

And now, for its next magic trick, KFC Japan is testing a soft-serve ice cream biscuit sandwich. According to SoraNews24, the biscuit soft-serve sandwich has been on the menu since late October, and it comes in three soft-serve options—vanilla, chocolate, and both—at the price of 290 yen (US$1.81). There is also a meal version that includes a drink, with the chain also testing soft-serve by itself as a dessert option.

The item is currently confirmed to be at three locations only—Tokyo’s Akihabara and Asakusa branches, and the Minami-machida Grandberry Park branch. There’s been no official announcement of whether or not KFC plans to roll it out nationwide.

Biscuits and soft-serve aren’t two things us Americans think to pair, but if honey goes with biscuits, it isn’t hard to imagine ice cream going with them, too. Looks like we’ll just have to try this unexpected combo out for ourselves.
