KFC
The Korean BBQ flavor is taking over the world, and fast food giant KFC is one of those brands that realize the power it holds. This is why the chain is dropping new menu additions, the Korean BBQ Bowls. Available in two mouthwatering variations, these new bowls can only be ordered via the KFC app and kfc.com.
If you’re a fan of the bold Korean BBQ flavors (or just the dramas), KFC’s new K-BBQ bowls have the potential to uplevel your snack game. Here’s what to expect from these new fast food releases:
- Korean BBQ Mac & Cheese Bowl – This bowl features the creamy mac and cheese, topped with chicken nuggets and a three-blend cheese (shredded). All these are smothered in a spicy and smoky Korean BBQ sauce.
- Korean BBQ Loaded Fries Bowl – This bowl features KFC’s Secret Recipe fries, pickles, coleslaw, and chicken nuggets tossed in Korean BBQ sauce.
These new Korean BBQ Bowls are available for a limited time only at participating KFC locations. As for the price, you can get them for just $5 each. If you take the time to browse kfc.com, you’ll also find other must-try deals to satisfy your cravings on a budget. The fast food chain is still running a free delivery promo for purchases made online and via the app, until February 20, 2025 only.
In addition, don’t miss the chance to try another latest offering from KFC, in collaboration with Mike’s Hot Honey. Chicken lovers can now enjoy KFC with a drizzle of the swicy honey. According to the fast food chain, it’s a “food alchemy that’s meant to be,” available in-store and via delivery.
Krispy Kreme
Meanwhile, Krispy Kreme is back with a new collaboration, this time with the streaming service provider Hulu. You already know what this means…a new collection of irresistible doughnuts! Mind you, these aren’t your average doughnuts (Krispy Kreme don’t make them, no). Available now at the shop near you, the Krispy Kreme x Hulu: Movie Snacks Doughnuts feature four new doughnuts inspired by the cinema snack bar. Find your new theater favorites from this lineup:
- Blue Raspberry Slush Doughnut – Your Original Glazed doughnut just got an upgrade, dipped in blue raspberry-flavored icing and blue sanding sugar.
- Caramel Popcorn Doughnut – This treat features an unglazed shell doughnut loaded with caramel popcorn-flavored Kreme™ filling. It’s also dipped in white icing and caramel popcorn, finished with red icing drizzles.
- Cookie Dough Superstar Doughnut – This is another unglazed shell doughnut, filled with chocolate butterkreme™ flavored filling. To make it extra sweet, it’s dipped in chocolate icing, topped with cookie dough bites and gold glitter sprinkles.
- Candy Double Feature Doughnut – Here’s another Original Glazed doughnut “dressed” in white icing, topped with milk chocolate candy pieces plus mini chocolate chips, and then finished with chocolate icing drizzle.
As you may have noticed, this new doughnut collection features popular movie snacks like popcorn and slushies, making movie marathons sweeter at home. You can get the Krispy Kreme x Hulu: Movie Snacks Doughnuts in-store for pickup or delivery. Try them individually to find your faves or go get the dozen and share them with the crew. There’s also a 6-pack box that you can grab at select retailers. For easier ordering, check out this page to find a shop or retailer near you.

Try the New Caramel Vanilla Latte
Looking for an energy-boosting sip while you binge watch your favorite movies? This is also your chance to try Krispy Kreme’s new gourmet coffee, Caramel Vanilla Latte.

I’m gonna devour these treats even when I’m not watching movies, lol!
