KFC Double Down “Sandwich”

I love chicken. I love bacon. I love cheese. And I love sauce. But something is telling me I won't be ordering the "Double Down" from KFC anytime soon. Maybe it's my kidneys, or liver. Maybe it's my children from the future who know if I choke this thing down, they won't exist.

It seems fast food companies have officially said "F*** It" when it comes to nutrition. You would think the movie "Super Size Me" would have at least deterred them from making artery clogging food stuffs and lean just a tad towards health consciousness.

According to the KFC website, the "Double Down" has 540 calories 32 grams of fat and 1380 mg of sodium. It's made of two boneless white meat chicken filets, two pieces of bacon, two melted slices of Monterey Jack and pepper jack cheese with the Colonel's Sauce. I'm having chest pains just looking at it. But those nutritional facts are tame compared to Wendy's Baconator Triple which boasted 1330 calories, 38 grams of saturated fat (the bad kind), 345 mg of cholesterol, 3,150 mg of sodium, and 11 grams of sugar. So I should be ripping Wendy's.

But no, I'd rather rip KFC. Why? Because of their clear disregard for health. The lack of nutrition in the Wendy's Baconator Triple is merely a byproduct of the food made up of it. KFC on the other hand made a conscious decision to forgo "goodness". Who needs bread when you can use two fried filets of chicken? Why did they stop there? Dipping the whole thing in chocolate would have totally put a bow on it.

The "Double Down" even looks like a bad decision. I'm surprised you don't have to sign a waiver prior to ordering it.
