KFC has taken it to the next level with its launch of the Double Down in Canada. What happened to being more health conscious Canada?!?
And I thought the deep fired butter was a crazy idea this past summer at the CNE.
So what is a Double Down? Well it goes a little like this: Chicken. Bacon. Cheese. Chicken....(nope they did not forget the bun folks).
It may not be all that bad when you break down the nutritional numbers for the Double Down. But the look of it alone for some will send them running in fear (me included!).
Each one has 540 calories, 30 grams of fat and 1,740 milligrams of sodium. That is 116% of the recommend daily intake of sodium. And this isn't including the side of fries and possible dipping sauce.
For me this is the death sentence. I highly doubt it's gluten free so I won't be trying it. I just don't see how something having so much sodium to taste all that great..but I'll leave it for the public to be the judge of that.
It's here for only six weeks-- no doubts in my mind it will make a return.
