Fantastic Mysteries: Does The KFC Double Down Chicken Sandwich Even Exist?
The Internet is going crazy today over the new KFC Double Down Chicken Sandwich, which features two pieces of bacon and two pieces of cheese "sandwiched" between two pieces of fried chicken. That is a ridiculous "sandwich." It's a real catch-22. Someone should start a Tumblr about horrible food creations that might make someone who ate them fat. But, I have just one question: does this thing even exist?
It's not like it's hard to believe. It is far too easy to believe. But there is no mention of it on KFC's website. And have you seen the YouTube of the purported ad that everyone is posting? This is sub-par Yeti footage. The abominable snowman is like "do you have anything else that might substantiate your claim?". Look at this thing:
I don't know. It looks real enough, but has anyone actually seen this ad? Has anyone actually TASTED a KFC Double Down Chicken Sandwich? These guys know what I'm talking about:
THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE, SHEEPLE.

I know Gabe was slyly referencing this earlier, but:
1) Some people may be unaware without a link
2) This site is awesome
3) The sandwich in question is on the front page.

The Fool's Gold Loaf Sandwich looked like an animal being gutted and cleaned. Why would anyone want to screw up a perfectly good PB&J sandwich by slapping bacon in it?

I think the real question is who actually wants this sandwich to exist?

I do! That looks goooooood! I may just feel that way because i haven't eaten anything today and I love bacon, but I want me a doule down chicken sandwich!

I think the real question is WHO DOESN'T? (Your coronary artery doesn't).

One of those people is Joe Bereta of Barats & Bereta, a comedy team based out of (my alma matter!) Gonzaga University. I suspect it is fake.

This seems like a commercial played during the news broadcasts in Robocop.

It does exist.

this sandwich is pretty ridiculous but i don't think it trumps the McGangbang. (McDouble and a McChicken combine to become a glorious artery clogging masterpiece)
Score = -1
I think this is like the McGangBang. It's not on the menu, but if you ask for it, you get it. Don't try that at a Girl Scout cookie sale though. I asked for a Cleveland Steamer and now I can't go within 100 yards of a school.

The first I heard about this was on last week's Best Show. Patton Oswalt was the guest (of course) and a guy called in from Omaha to tell him that the KFC test-market store was selling these horrible foodproducts. Go to last week's show and skip to the 1:42:00 mark for comedic gold.

I wonder if Tracy Jordan gets royalties for this, seeing as how it was made with (or at least inspired by) his meat machine. Now, folks, bread will never maybe infect your brain again.

I hope to see my friends eating these very soon.

Commercial looks suspect but I would never put something like this above the lab chefs at KFC.

Am I the only person not impressed by this?
It's not that hard to get a chicken bacon cheese sandwich, so essentially eating this is like if you bought your own sandwich, and then decided to bum one piece of chicken from a friend's KFC bucket.
Sure it's pretty gross and bad for you, but where's the majesty? If I'm going to eat an insane sandwich, it should be the kind that makes me think "So this is what it feels like to be Dagwood Bumstead", not "so this is what it feels like to ask for seconds". Throw an all-beef patty and a fried egg in there and we'll talk.
Score = 0
The double-down chicken sandwich is a sandwich best served cold... I can just imagine the "Ow! Ouchie! Owowow!" as fryer grease contacts fingertips.
Isn't this what bread was invented for? Have we evolved to the point where we don't need bread? Is the Atkins diet back on? My brain hurts.

I live in Lincoln, Nebraska and they sell them here, at least for a limited time. I didn't realize they were such an elusive item............
But trust me, I bought one..... they are the most disgusting thing I've ever eaten at KFC. I felt bad about myself for buying the thing and threw most of it away.
