KFC Double Down

When it was announced earlier this year that KFC was coming out with the Double Down sandwich, I have to admit I was intrigued. A bun-less sandwich, combining two KFC chicken breasts with cheese, bacon, a special sauce and enough sodium to kill a horse. With no bread or vegetables to get in my way, was the Double Down my path to fast food nirvana? Nope. It was like eating a salty, deep fried catcher's mitt.

I feel like even though this looks bad and everybody says it's bad, I'll probably try it someday, because why not? I mean, besides my heart etc.

You should definitely try it. Everyone should. I just wasn't all that impressed after I ate one. They're not worth the money either, I paid over $8 (CDN) for one. And I know I already brought it up in the review, but I can't stress enough how salty they are. If you have a pre-existing heart condition, avoid the Double Down at all cost, or at least keep a defibrillator close by.

I bought one a few months ago with the intention of reviewing it here--I even got a photo of me eating it. Then I had a hypertensive episode and forgot my name for several months, and woke up on some fucking Indian reservation in northern Manitoba. Kill me, please.

Sorry I beat you to the punch John. But if you're really looking to end it all, just grab a few more Double Downs, the sodium in those bad boys should do the job for you.
