The KFC Double Down, a sandwich that the fast-food chain felt compelled to assure consumers was actually real and not an April Fools' Day prank, will land with a greasy thud in KFC locations across the U.S. on April 12, an advertisement on KFC’s website said Saturday.

The Double Down features bacon and Monterey Jack cheese surrounded not by a bun but by two fried chicken fillets. ...

It's just the evolution of the single breast chicken snackers they sell now. I'll be buying a bunch one after they debut.

Hey....no bread!!! Perfect for the no carb diet.... :-)
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

They tested this out in a couple of markets last year.  Providence, RI was one of the markets.  I wanted to make a run down there sooooooo bad at the time.

Coleslaw was liquid with a couple small chunks of cabbage-like substance.  Even the mac-and-cheese was paste.  HOW THE HELL DO YOU SCREW UP MACARONI AND CHEESE????

That being said, I want one of these artery-cloggers, just to say I've had one.

It's got breadING. But it's saturated with oil, so I suppose it's okay.

Taste like mud. Cold slaw is dry as a bone and the Mac. is terrible ....the cheese taste like some of that free crap the gov. used to give away many years ago.

Make sure you have someone CPR-qualified to hit you with the portable defib.  Have the patches on and probes attached to, just so you'll be ready.

Nice.  Cheese is closer to being meat than bread. 

I want one.
