Monday, April 12th marked the official unveiling of the KFC dream sandwich, The Double Down. Also, I've lived in the Marietta area most of my life and not once have I ever actually eaten at The Big Chicken (Its been one of those places I drive by but never actually stop...in Auburn, AL they call this "church"). The stars aligned and it only made sense to kill two birds with one stone.
Follow me as I take you on a trip down dietary Hell.
There she is, rising like a Phoenix from the Arizona.
Hmmm...I should probably go ahead and tell you I can count my total trips to KFC in the last decade on Lance Armstrong's testicles.
I am officially the proud owner of 1 KFC Double Down "sandwich".
So here it is. A bacon & cheese sandwich held together by 2 fried chicken "buns".
...NOM 
...NOM NOM 
...NOM NOM NOMFINAL VERDICT:
Patton Oswalt once referred to KFC's Famous Bowl's as "Failure Bowls". I will hereby refer to this beast as a Failure Sandwich. Why? Because I feel like Hell right now. The damned thing was salty, heavy, and 100% vegetable free...unless the USDA convinced you that condiments are a vegetable, then you got your daily serving of Colonel's Sauce. Seriously would it have killed you to put a tomato or a pickle on this thing?!?
I'm not a health-nut by any stretch of the imagination. I can't eat my wife's Kashi cereal without wanting to empty the hole-punch into the bowl to give it some taste. But if you find yourself able to eat one of these on a regular basis, chances are you either have a Dale Earnhardt tattoo or are wearing an over-sized Tweetie Bird t-shirt. Diabetes are in your not-too-distant future and your long hair compliments your red neck.
Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go fix myself a Lipitor and Maker's Mark...then call it a night.

Mackie,
You are a better man than me. I don't think I could get half way through that and I am a fast food junkie.
Dude, I had my first one of these today. I am by no means a health nut, but I'm considering giving it a shot after eating this thing. I wasn't expecting the amount of grease I encountered, and the only napkin they gave me was the super-thin one inside the plastic with the fork. I had to pull over and get some paper towels from a gas station windshield wash dispenser.
Anyway, I fell I have checked the block and won't be partaking of this flatulence-producing item any time in the near future. Fortunately for my wife I'm on the road, so she doesn't have to deal with the consequences! haha
I am totally undetered by your negative feedback. I refuse to believe you until I try it for myself. Fortunately, I've just restocked by Prilosec supply.
KFC is a tender looking good and very yummy.. especially fried chicken..Amanda Vanderpool
