KFC Hong Kong Is Serving Green Tea Biscuits

With the world looking for healthier food options, fast food chains are going two ways. Either, they’re determinedly churning out unhealthy mash ups like Burger King’s Cheetos Chicken Fries or they’re taking the other road and including healthier menu items. KFC Hong Kong, for instance is putting on a green healthy hat with the launch of Green Tea biscuits.

The biscuits are made by adding green tea powder to the biscuit batter to give them a sweet matcha flavour and their green color.

Green tea has become a popular ‘superfood’ across the world as its packed with antioxidants and other nutrients.

The green tea biscuits in Hong Kong’s KFCs are served with the breakfast menu which includes scrambled eggs and hot dogs as well as with KFC’s lunch entree options like macaroni and cheese or chicken wings.

This isn’t the first time KFC has gone the green tea route: KFC Japan began serving frozen matcha KFC Krushers in March which is a milky frozen drink flavored with powdered green tea.
