KFC's Double Down

So KFC has announced a new sandwich replacing the bun with two breaded fried chicken breasts, two pieces of cheese, bacon, and sauce. The calories for this monstrosity aren't bad, but the sodium of one sandwich is very high. I'm not certain how I feel about this "sandwich".

Though really how is it any different then some of the other sandwiches you can buy now a days? In an out burger has the 100x100 Thats 100 burger patties and 100 slices of cheese in one bun. In japan Burger king has the Windows 7, it's a burger with 7 beef patties in it weighing in at over 1 1/2 pounds of cooked meat! :\ Some of these are becoming gross just thinking about.

At what point does something become too much? At what point do we as Americans stand up for better proportioned food?

  1. hahahaha. When enough people like me with large families decide that it's not worth it and stop going out to eat (family of 7: 2 parents 5 kids and we eat in restaurants about 3 times a year and only at non-chain associated shops). It saves us a ton of money and our kids are darn near the healthiest in their schools.
