Get a Krispy Kreme chicken sandwich at the Orange County Fair

krispy kreme doughnutsOrange County, better known as The OC, isn't all golden tanned, ultra thin surfers. At least, not when the County Fair is going on. Sure sure, there are the standard fair foods, like corn dogs and funnel cakes, but would you let yourself eat a Krispy Kreme sandwich? Maybe if it were filled with ice cream or custard, but what about...chicken?

The $4.95 dish is the brain-shild of Chicken Charlie's, and consists of chicken breast and slice of swiss cheese between two Krisy Kreme doughnuts. To top it off, it's served with a honey sauce.

If you plan to go to the fair, it runs until this coming Sunday. Don't forget your Alka-Seltzer.

From USA Today, on June 23:

The Gateway Grizzlies, an independent baseball league team in Sauget, Ill., started selling "Baseball's Best Burger" this month: a $4.50 cheeseburger with two strips of bacon grilled between a sliced Krispy Kreme doughnut. (The glazed sides are flipped to the inside for less mess.)

It comes to the plate with 1,000 calories and 45 grams of fat, but the Grizzlies are selling 150 a game, says team spokesman Jeff O'Neill. "People ask us what to put on it," says O'Neill. "We like to think it doesn't need anything."

But what I have NOT figured out, is why someone just doesn't make what sounds like an obvious menu item to me: A Breakfast Sandwich. Take your donut, split it, toast it, and fill it with ham, bacon, eggs, whatever. Doesn't that make more sense?

I'd never eat it -- I think K.K.'s are highly overrated and not worth the calories -- but surely people would flock to a Krispy Kreme Egg Sandwich.
