hungry prof Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I couldn't find a previous thread on KFC, but reports of their new sandwich, the Double Down, nearly made me lose my breakfast:"KFC is now offering a "sandwich" which consists of bacon, two kinds of cheeses and sauce between two pieces of fried chicken. That's right, fried chicken as a bun instead of bread." Points for creativity, I guess. Who's up for a lunch outing when this thing shows up?

Rovers2000 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Here is a link with a picture of this monstrosity.

DonRocks Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Turn on your speakers (low volume). I wonder if these dancers realize how ridiculous they look, and also if they'll look back one day and understand that they're the Marlboro Men of this generation.

I wonder if these dancers realize how ridiculous they look, and also if they'll look back one day and understand that they're the Marlboro Men of this generation. I love how their current slogan is "Unthink." They mean it as in, "Unthink what you thought about KFC" (in reference to their new grilled products). To me, "Unthink" connotes something completely different in this context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Dente Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 When I first saw a picture of this thing I got a good laugh. I honestly thought it was a joke. Bill Maher is right about this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Landrum Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Let's be honest, if any number of acclaimed chefs here locally or nation-wide had come up with this idea, we'd be hailing them as visionary heroes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll proudly put it on their "reels" and on their resumes. Performers will do pretty much anything if there is national exposure and a paycheck involved. And they can keep their clothes on.

(It would be gender-biased if I *didn't* do this just because you're female ... forgive me, I have to ...) *Long* backstory, but I affectionately called my mom Eva - it started out as a joke, but it stuck for thirty years. There's a scene in "Arthur" when he says, in his drunken, British accent, "Susan, you're *such* an ahs-hohle." I was at my mom's house, and my (then four-year-old) niece was there. My mom said something mildly annoying, and I said, in my best Dudley Moore accent, "Eva, you're *such* an ahs-hohle." My niece started wailing like a banshee, and both my mom and I were all over it, saying "What's wrong? What's wrong?" She looked at my mom and replied, "Donald called you a nostril." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
