Wow. Isn't a burger unhealthy (and delicious) enough? Really, when is too much, too far? This is a good example.

Yeah, I'm over three hundred pounds and don't exercise; but even I'm uncomfortable with this. Not even from a health standpoint; just in terms of taste. I guess it's a good late night craving type food, where you get to wanting a specific type of flavor. It probably tested through the roof with younger people, and you're probably not gonna get something that salty without ordering a drink.
The only thing that really surprises me about this is how long it took mankind to figure out it would be a good idea to use breaded chicken as bread in a sandwich. Honestly though, there isn't really anything outrageous about this. It's basically like just eating some chicken strips with some melted cheese and bacon on top - definitely unhealthy, but nothing worth the publicity it's been getting. If they would have just put a bun on either side and called it a double-decker chicken sandwich, people probably wouldn't bat an eye. Instead KFC saves money on buns and uses marketing to position the "sandwich" as something people will talk about. Genius.
