The KFC Double-Down Sandwich.

Have you ever had a meal, and afterwards felt good, happy....full of energy? Now what about the opposite? Felt like garbage or that someone could wring grease out of you.

Now imagine having both of those experiences AT THE SAME TIME.

This is what you will get when you order the new KFC Double-Down Sandwich.

Today at lunch I decided to give one a try and write up a little review. Here it is.

The Double-Down Sandwich consists of 2 boneless chicken breasts (grilled or fried), with 2 strips of bacon, 2 pieces of pepperjack cheese, and some kind of sauce I couldn't place. There is no bread. Just meat & cheese & sauce.

Needless to say there is a lot of meat on this sandwich. Rivaling that of the Baconator at Wendys. Yes....possibly even surpassing the Baconator in the meat department.

The first few bites were spicey goodness. Though sadly I could barely taste the cheese, bacon or sauce. Maybe I should be thankful for that...I dunno.

Half-way through the sandwich I began to feel nasty and started feeling the meat sweats coming on. Seriously. The meat people....the meat.

I managed to finish it with some potato wedges, but I can tell you right now I am not a better person for it. This was a one time deal for me.

Those with heart conditions and high blood pressure or anyone in general just wanting a happy outlook on life need to avoid this sandwich like the plague. Its just not something any human being ever needs to consume....ever.

As I type this...I'm actually in pain. Like my body is just trying to force it through just to get it the hell out.

Do yourself a favor....don't do it!

I feel like as a long time fan of Destructoid I would be remiss not to try one for myself. You will not deter me with your little review. Let it be known across the land that Gatsu cannot handle the meat!

I haven't dropped dead yet. so...handling it is a matter of perspective. If I make it through the rest of the day without a stroke and I'll call it a victory.

I don't know if that was the meat sweats or your blood pressure doubling. 1400 mg of sodium, fuckin a man!

Nice, the actually had that 'sandwich' on the news last night. A little free publicity for KFC. 460 calories, 1/2 of them from fat. Nice!\r \r I was thinking about trying it but think i'll heed your warning and not :)
