Why bother with the bun? That's the premise of KFC's latest offering, the Double Down, a sandwich that replaces the traditional bun with two original recipe chicken fillets that hold bacon, cheese and some secret sauce.
An you thought the low-carb Atkins diet was just a fad? Some have estimated this chicken experiment has more than 1,200 calories.
Here's what folks in the BV Community are saying about this new menu item KFC is testing out in two states: Nebraska and Rhode Island.

At first sight I was like: "JESUS!" But then I thought to myself...if you were to only eat one of these once in a while, what's the big deal!? Now if you're one of those non-home cooking lazy people who allows KFC, McDonald's, Burger King etc. to be your personal caterer on a daily basis well then this is not a good idea. Adults will eat what they want and parents will allow their children to eat the things they do. NO ONE IS BEING FORCED TO EAT ANY OF THIS STUFF. It really upsets me when industries are blamed for the things their customers do. They are not twisting our arms! Like Chris Rock said: "Drug dealers don't sell drugs. Drugs sell themselves. The dealer just supplies it!" These eateries are just the suppliers. If you don't want it don't eat it. No one is forcing you to. And like my father use to say: "Just because you have money in your pocket doesn't mean you have to spend it." All they are saying is: "look what we have. It's here if you want it." Stop complaining about every little thing!
