"Even if you ignore the nasty and brutal cruelty to animals that KFC is absolutely famous for, you cannot possibly ignore the fact that this sandwich is heart disease on a platter at 1380mg of sodium per Double Down."


YEAH..its the 1380mg of sodium that is bad about this sandwich. Why is it we get so worked up over sodium? There is the same amount of sodium in 2-3 pickles...no one is giving pickles a bad rep.

Looks yummy though :)

kfc chicken has become so gross over the last few years that I don't even bother anymore. I still like fried chicken but the safeway or sobey's deli chicken is so much better that kfc is off the list

I can't wait to try that sandwich. I'm pretty sure it will be a one time deal though like the triple decker from Wendy's.

I like Mary Brown's and Popeye's chicken better for fast food chicken. I haven't seen any Mary Brown's around for a while though.

I had Mary Brown's 2 days ago. There's one about a block from my place.

As for the article...just tell me about the sandwich and stfu about your misguided opinions you hippy douchebag.

You can get it with grill chicken instead of deep fried :).

It's a crappy area, but tons of stuff within walking distance. There is a pita pit, dominos pizza and a burger king now too.

Double Down grilled - 480 cals, 25 grams fat, 1760 sodium, 4 grams carbs, 60 grams protein. Probably the most protein in any road food, and with the amount of water we all drink, that's not enough sodium to be concerned with.

I'll be having one for sure.

minus the TYPE of fat but yeah, not bad if stuck for some reason that you hadn't planned for.

I took a motorcycle trip down to Southern California with buddies this summer, we saw the ads everywhere and had to try it...

I was eager to crush one down as my protein bars had run out and it was pretty damn good! I think I'll have to go for round 2!...

I had one, it was okay. Tasted like their chicken and tasted good, not sure if I would pay 9 bucks again, but if I was in a jam, sure.

I heard that from some of my buddies, but when I had mine I didn't find it salty at all, and I don't eat salt on anything

I ate one last night... it was not bad... 50G's of protein is pretty impressive given that it's a pretty small portion compared to all the mega double, tripple and quad burgers out there :)

In the States you can get this with the grilled chicken which would actually make it not so 'unhealthy'... it was insanely salty... I drank about 4l's of diet pop and water last night after eating it... I actually like the idea of a bunless sandwich!

The diet pop likely did not help the case seeing as how it contains a fair amount of sodium as well.

Looking forward to trying one of these in a couple weeks.

No. I had to take some time off the past few months since I was traveling for work.

Yes, You can get grilled Pressed Meat grilled if you don't want it deep fried. Make no mistake, this very processed chicken. It's fast food. You're not getting anything high quality.

I was sad when they took this away from the regular menu. I only had it once but it was nice, like a thai massage.
