Chizza first debuted on KFC menus in the Philippines in 2015<\/a> and since then the KFC exclusive has made its way around the world to Korea, Taiwan, India, Thailand, Germany, Spain and Mexico, among other countries. Now, you can experience the global phenomenon here in the U.S. for the very first time.<\/p>\n

“Fried chicken and pizza collaborated to create something even better,” said Nick Chavez, CMO KFC<\/a> U.S. “The fan-favorite mashup is finally available in the U.S. after making its way around the world \u2013 try it while you can!”\u00a0 Enjoy the Chizza on its own or plus up the experience with the combo meal, which includes the Chizza, Secret Recipe Fries and a medium drink.<\/p>\n
