This looks like something you'd see at a State Fair. On a stick.

They should make you sign a waver before you're allowed to order it.

Y'know if it were on a stick, and the whole thing was deep fried I might be interested. Going to KFC is about on par with eating at the fair anyways.

I got one, because I hate myself. And like someone said, it's only as fattening as a Big Mac, right? Not the fucking point. You can't hold a greasy slab of chicken like it was bread, especially since the thing is sitting there lopsided due to the fact that it's two totally different shaped pieces of breastmeat, and the cheese is just watery and melted and running down it. They don't wrap it in foil, it was in a paper diaper, sat inside a box. If you asked for this thing not knowing what it was, if it was "today's special" or something, and you opened it up, you'd think the restaurant was run by retards. Like Davey said, if it came with bread no one would make a big deal about it. But that's the whole point, yeah it's on par with the Big Mac as far as fatty food decadence goes, but it's just a bunch of food held together by a diaper, it's degrading. It's not even entertaining to get it as a joke... you guys talking about getting one like you're in on it, I feel sorry for you.

Reminds me of 30 Rock. "Meat is the new bread." Anyway, this is an insult to sammiches everywhere; the whole point is that the bread keeps your fingers clean; if I get a sammich, I damn well better not have greasy fingers after I eat it.

For me eating shit like this (this doesn't look appealing, but there are some horribly unhealthy sandwhiches/burgers that I adore,) is along the same lines as consuming alcohol and whatnot. Moderation is key. I mean, just last Thursday I had an amazing 1/3 lb hamburger with big slices of sausage, cheese, onions, and BBQ sauce on it. Very delicious, not exactly what one would call healthy, but I'm 6' 2" and 175 lbs =)
Exactly. When I cook at home, I don't use a lot of saturated fats and I don't use a lot of salt, mostly because of my family's history with shitty cholesterol, but the one or two times a week when I go to a restaurant, the gloves come off. This past saturday I had a half pound burger made with ground tenderloin with cheddar cheese and russet and sweet potato fries and washed it down with a couple glasses of Maker's Mark. I'm about the same size as you and despite all the beer I drink, my weight has stayed stable.

The sad (or totally awesome, depending on how you look at it) thing is that my food was only marginally more expensive than ordering a large value meal at a fast food restaurant.

Agreed. The closest one to here is 15 miles away, but I still manage to stop by every so often for some spicy chicken and red beans.

I actually don't think the Double Down is really quite as horrendous as it's being made out to be, but if I was to get one I'd probably skip the sauce though. Would make things a lot less messy, and save a few calories. I'm pretty sure I'll be passing on this one though.

Eeeew. Bleagh.
That was one of the few truly nasty sights I've seen that made me recoil [namely out of the idea that people would eat that, although I really wouldn't doubt it, and it might actually taste good, I dunno, but that picture...].

It looked like meat in some kind of large cheesy hole [which seems to be just what it is, which is the disturbing part]!

I would much rather eat blood pudding. Meatbread is hilarious, I'm laughing at that.

I made one of those cheese filled woven bacon things once. It wasn't nearly as artery cloggingly delicious as I expected, not worth the whole package of bacon it took.

Stuff like this makes me laugh. I RARELY eat anything fried, I hate bacon, and I don't like special sauce. Terrible sandwich.

I would try this but I don't think I can stand going to KFC and not getting that delicious bowl mashed taters + cheese + gravy + chicken. Truly a god amongst fast food meals.

That is the biggest problem with crap like this!
Many people in the United States don't even know what it is they are eating anymore.

That piece of shit sandwich from KFC does not contain breast meat.
It is shaped to appear as though it is breast-like, but the KFC marketing page clearly says it is "white meat."

I don't even know what white meat means anymore ...is that any meat that is bleached and appears white?
A few years ago it meant rib meat that is left on a chicken carcass and removed by spraying the carcass with a solution to dissolve the fat so the leftover scraps of meat fall off the bones.
Industrial food bleach makes the scrap meat a uniform white color. Then binders and food adhesives are added to make it all stick together and it is pressed into form using a mold.

It would not surprise me at all to discover that lobbyists have changed the regulations so that any meat can be bleached and called white meat, not just breast and rib meat. Really, what would it matter? This shit is manufactured in a factory anyway. Would it really matter if your processed chicken product is really scrap thigh meat, rather then scrap rib meat?

Lol. Don't get me wrong, I do like things that are terrible for me. Candy being the biggest one. I don't like A LOT of foods though. I can eat small amounts of bacon or hamburger in something, but to straight up eat it? No. And bacon takes over anything you put it in. I don't enjoy the flavor. I guess I'm crazy, I dunno.

KFC in the Uk has been nurffed quite a bit. we dont have mash potatoes we dont even have cheese as a side order. Last time i checked we can get as a side

Coldslaw and beans maybe gravy im just checking the UK menu now.
Coldslaw, side salad, beans, mini corn on the cob, fries, gravy. I dont see the point in gravy if you cant get mash potatoes with that too.
Thats it im booking a holiday to the US for later this year. Im going to fill up on tacobell KFC and Wendy's all fucking week long. where the fuck should i go? :lol:

When I used to work a shitty fast food type job it was amazing how many people were so concerned about whether they were getting white meat or not. People would not get a chicken salad sandwich because it wasn't all white meat. Never mind that it was the only chicken we offered that was recognizable as being chicken, not a shaped pattie of chicken goop.
