Does a sandwich without bread actually count as a “sandwich?” At best it’s sandwich-esque. On the other hand, I doubt your fat-encased heart will care.
[The "Double Down" is] bacon and cheese sandwiched between two pieces of fried chicken. [...] KFC announced the decision to go live with the Double Down yesterday, but we weren’t sure they weren’t playing a April Fools gag. But no, they truly are going nationwide with the delicacy on April 12.
The sandwich will be available in two forms. The Original Recipe sandwich will set you back about 540 calories, 32g of fat and 1380mg of sodium. The not-as-bad-for-you Grilled Double Down totals 460 calories, 23g of fat and 1430mg of sodium.
looks pretty good to me
Is this really much different than eating two pieces of chicken? If you are willing to eat at KFC at all, then this is no worse than anything else you would order from them, except you’re following a diet closer to Atkins.
The only concern I would have with this item would be what oil was used to cook the chicken. Otherwise if you follow the Paleo way there is absolutely nothing wrong with this.
Its the simple carbs that this society consumes en-mass that are the root of all health problems. The simple carbs are what cause the inflammation that leads to a whole host of health problems.
April 12 is now circled on my calendar.
KFC here I come!
I want!!
Before you guy go trashing KFC too much, consider that “chicken cordon bleu” is a chicken breast stuffed with cheese, ham, and is also breaded.
mmmmm, and very few carbs! why didn’t they add the carbs in the info?
OMG! It looks delicious. I want one already I hope they bring it to my country too.
McDonalds used to post there calorie count in their restaurants. As I recall, their Big Mac was over 500 big cals. The KFC concoction actually sound pretty good. The cal count may be more competitive than first inspection might indicate. I’m going to try it. Some body has to do something to get even for Obamacare. Come-on, what are you saving yourself for, Cancer?
A few years ago Hardee’s had a “low carb” burger that was very similar. Essentially they removed the bun, (and charged more if I remember correctly) because the Atkins diet was such a craze then. Last I knew, it was still available, but just not displayed on the menu.
Fat does not make you fat!
Its the diet sodas that fat people drink, yeah thats it!
Ay yay yay… only in America…
First, it looks gross. I mean, look at it… but I guess it is ok if you eat it once a month or something like that.
Anyway, ditch this crap guys – start eating humus and fresh salad!
If there is anything worth learning from the middle east, it is the food.
Bon Appetite.

One good thing about the new healtcare bill is that info of that type will have to be available with the food… now if Americans weren’t so darn ignorant in mass about their suggested food guidelines and what ‘food’ manufacturers are providing.
Fast food outlets are legally poisoning the American population, and are responsible for a huge portion of the American Health costs… maybe just like with Tobacco, it is time to start trying to control the poisoning of America?
#32: As soon as I can find a way to serve hummus and fresh salads “medium-rare”, I’ll order them!
An Atkins dieter’s dream!
it’s genius!
#32 Hummus: not eating it.
I’ll try one, but I probably will not eat it every day. I spend most meals at home eating unhealthy packaged meals that are loaded with carbohydrates.
In Jockland they’d put that between two slices of bread, batter it, then deep fry the whole shebang.
