Sometimes fast food joints come up with menu items so ridiculous, I feel compelled to write about them. I recently saw an ad for "The Double Down" on TV, and started laughing uncontrollably, and said something like, "oh Jesus, what is this country coming to?" The Double Down "sandwich" features melted cheese and bacon in the middle, with two pieces of grilled chicken serving as buns. Their advertising slogan for this product should have been "Are you looking to clog your arteries as quickly as possible? Then head on down to KFC and try out our new Double Down sandwich!"
I have to admit, looking at this thing, it would probably be pretty damn tasty.This is not the first time KFC has introduced glutinous items to their menu. Let's not forget the infamous "bowl" that featured chicken, mashed potatoes, corn with a nice little gravy topping. Delicious!


Obviously the only way to make the dining experience more convenient at this point would be for KFC to introduce the feedbag first proposed by
The Onion. Imagine the convenience of driving around with this thing strapped to your face, full of "Double Downs" and mashed potatoes. Bon appetitte!
