I survived the KFC Double Down and lived to tell about it.




So, I finally took the purge and travel to the local KFC to taste the infamous Double Down. I have to admit, personally, I wouldn't finish the sandwich for moral reasons. This doesn't take away from the quality of one of the best fast food sandwiches to hit the market; regardless if it has more salt than the island of Malta.




To comment in regards to the media, I believe the American Heart Association, PETA and all of those other damn organizations with tax-ID numbers needs to stop scaring Americans in regards to what they consume. I've read more articles in the past speaking out against the Double Down than about cigarettes, drugs or Burger King. The hypocricy in the media needs to give this sandwich a chance, as we know, the Double Down isn't going to last for long. However, we're still going to deal with other sandwiches like The Triple Whopper, The McDonald's Angus & let's not forget about Hardee's that place has enough grease to give John Travolta a fountain of youth makeover.

Overall, I would try this sandwich again if I was totally wasted and on days that I've clearly watched my sodium count. The other sandwiches listed above are stay out of my eating rountine completely. I personally would recommend trying the sandwich if you don't fall to the will of healthy eating propoganda, in that case you're probably too afraid to ever indulge yourself outside of fat free yougurt (which is very good by the way).

I give this sandwich a 13.80 out of 15.
