By looking at its name, we are aware that KFC is originated from America. It is one of the most famous food chains in the world with more than 20,000 stores. Surprisingly (not really, actually. We just want to give a little bit of hyperbolic scene), KFC is very famous in Southeast Asia.
It is very interesting to see their penetration strategy to the Southeast Asian market, where they make specific local items for each country. And this is where the Americans would be jealous of us. Here we have compiled some of the menus we found in Southeast Asia countries and some might make you say 'seriously?', but that's how KFC satisfy your tongue!
1. In Thailand, you can order a Shrimp Doughnut, which is shrimp breaded and deep-fried in the shape of a doughnut. You know... calamari, but shrimp.

3. This is to satisfy you who love something that is not very American. In Singapore, KFC sells Chocolate Hazelnut Fries. It may or may not qualify as dessert in your eyes, but they're definitely eye-catching!

7. Among Southeast Asia countries, we know the Philippines has part of America in them with Jordan Clarkson. And chicken hotdog and pasta are their answer so that Clarkson will keep playing for the Basketball National Team.Â

10. Holy chicken! In Malaysia, there is the Cheezilla, which combines a mozzarella patty AND a hot and spicy chicken fillet between two buns. Malaysia 1, America 0!
