(NewsCore) - The KFC Double Down, a sandwich that the fast-food chain felt compelled to assure consumers was actually real and not an April Fools' Day prank, will land with a greasy thud in KFC locations across the U.S. on April 12, an advertisement on KFCs website said Saturday.
The Double Down features bacon and Monterey Jack cheese surrounded not by a bun but by two fried chicken fillets.
KFC describes the sandwich as so meaty, theres no room for a bun! Consumer affairs website Consumerist called it mysteriously tempting (and potentially lethal).

Many American pioneers only had salted pork to eat for meat - you’ve heard of pork barrels, right? Although peoples on the edge of the frontier were successful hunters, as more & more settlers came, the hunting grounds were quickly depleted of game.
Add brisket wrapper and it’ll be a balanced meal!
It’s been clear to me for quite some time that pork is so good that we must limit the market lest it be costly.
I agree about the sanitized, homogenized, institutionalized way that food is produced today due to the threat of lawsuit and bad press (think of the horror if someone got a fertilized chicken egg from their store. I have found embryonic chicks in many breakfasts back home on the farm and always thought of it as a pleasant "bonus" to go with my toast and coffee. In following that rule of everything that is good for you tastes bland and awful while everything that will kill you is flavorful and delicious I came up with the twinkie lasagna a desert that combines every dietary evil I had on hand
The infamous Twinkie Lasagna
This dish combines everything that is bad for you into one so it has to be good
One box Twinkies
One package full fat cream cheese
One pint sour cream
One pint Ricotta cheese
½-1 cup sugar (to taste)
¼ tsp vanilla
A few drops of orange liqueur
Ground Coffee (the stuff you put in Mr Coffee)
One Cadburys chocolate bar with almonds
Slice Twinkies in half lengthwise and arrange the slices in a single layer in a medium baking dish (at least 2 inches deep)
Combine Ricotta, Cream Cheese, and sour cream, Vanilla,
and orange liqueur.
Add sugar to taste.
Pour enough of the cheese mixture over the Twinkies to cover them.
Grate or shave the chocolate bar and sprinkle between layers
Use a sieve to sprinkle the coffee over the chocolate (you dont need much)
Continue to layer Twinkies, cheese, and chocolate until the dish is full
Freeze over night and let thaw for 2 hours before serving (This thing is easier to cut up if its a little frozen)
Ping
ROFL.
So true.
Thanks. We need more food sanity and less nanny food hysteria.
I generally don’t care what people eat or don’t eat as long as they don’t feel compelled to tell me about it or make snide comments about what I eat or don’t eat.
It never looks like ad. And it always tastes disgusting.
