Chicken meets doughnut in the newest food mashup: Donug

Move over sushi doughnuts, the Donug is latest doughnut-shaped food trend to grip the globe. If you’re repulsed by the idea of a chicken-flavoured doughnut or, perhaps, have your interest piqued by a doughnut-encrusted chicken nugget, it’s not really either of those things.

The Donug is basically a chicken nugget in the shape of a doughnut; it has a ring-like shape and a hole in the middle. According to its official Instagram page, the food mashup is made from chicken, a top-secret flour and spice mix and a crunchy panko and cornflake crust.
