The KFC Double Down. The KFC Double Down. The KFC Double Down.
This sandwich has caused more discussion in the Fast Food industry and more disgust in pussy health-food groups than any sandwich in years. The only comparable item was Wendy's superior Baconator which debuted in April 2007.
The commercial for the Double Down was amusing/ kind of racist

And Colonel... "You da man!"
After hearing all the discussion about this sandwich I of course had to get my hands on one. Me and a fellow Fast Food lover my good friend Emmanuel (I don't know if I spelled the name correctly, who gives a shit, if his parents wanted him to be easily known they would have named him David) made a promise to try this as soon as possible.
We saw a really unappetizing advertisement as we walked into the KFC and to my dismay my friend Emmannneul backed out! I give credit to the Double Down in all it's mighty myth that it could turn a fast food lover into a pussy health-food sympathizer just with an ad.
The truth: This thing wasn't even that bad. It was so much smaller than advertised. and beyond the grease, high amounts of sodium it was not even that hard to eat! I thought it was semi-tasty and would try it again. I'd give it a 6 out of 10. I ate this with a side-order of fries, and probably could have gone for another one if I wanted to look like Hurley from Lost.
I'm the only person on a desert island to get fatter. Whoa.After all the myths and talk, these are the measurements for the Double Down
