Some of you may have heard about this a few months back.  But for those that haven't, ladies and gentlemen, meet the KFC Double Down

 
Set for nationwide release on April 12th, this heart clogger is a bacon sandwich with two fried chicken breasts as the bread.  For those that are wondering, this bad boy will cost you 540 calories, 32g of fat and 1380mg of sodium.  For your heathier side, the grilled Double Down will only set you back 460 calories, 23g of fat and 1430mg of sodium.
 
So, what do you guys think of this behemoth?  For my fellow Americans out there, are you interested in trying this?

I am Canadian, and I hope this comes over here. Then again, I don't have a KFC near me so I'll never end up trying it. 
 
Also, random fact: A packet of Sweet and Sour sauce at Mcdonalds is 310 calories.

They need to deep fry the entire thing. 
 
I never eat KFC after 2 cases of food poisoning back in the early 80s.  Pavlov's Dog theory at play and I stay away.  Chicken is normally the only meat I eat, but I prefer to cook my own thanks, but hey, enjoy your coronary bypass  :-)

My diet doesn't allow me to eat any of those foods. But maybe I'll try it while at a hospital just in case.

That is awesome and I must try one.  Still, I'm not sure if it's as sinfully delicious as the Krispy Kreme Bacon Cheeseburger.

I'll start a blog, why Ireland is awesome and put in some crappy Irish stew ; )
 
But damn, that looks delicious. Do you not think it will be worldwide though as KFC is just about everywhere and they sell pretty much the same thing?...

It doesn't look that good to me. Sorry, but fatty foods on top of other even fattier foods isn't always good.

540 calories actually isn't bad. For comparison, a Whopper is about 750-800 calories.

And to be more on-topic, no, I don't think I'll have one of those.

Only Americans have the courage to take a big out of a hamburger whose bun is actually donuts. God bless you, Christopher Columbus!

You know, it looks absolutely delicious, I love KFC, and the fact that I lack the ability to gain weight seems means I'd love to eat one.  But that thing is probably going to be pretty damn small considering how few calories it contains, making it a pretty bad deal cost wise.

Looks utterly disgusting; and not even in a good-disgusting kind of way.
