The picture of the “real” thing on The Consumerist is kind of gross looking. Not sure if I could get past the visual aspect in order to take a bite.

My 11 year-old and I can not _wait_- April 12, suckers! We’re only going to have one (each), but we are looking forward to that one. We are real gourmands around here. ---

I think it sounds great! Is is just Alice, her son, and I? There’s a grilled chicken version. I might try that. Sans cheese, of course. ---

I’ve long been annoyed by the lingering lack of unhealthiness that the traditional bun has represented in fast food. ---

I’ll take one with extra bacon and a diet Dr Pepper, please. ---

So was the chicken towed before or after it got fired? ---

Actually, it looks to be very low in carbs. Atkins himself would approve, so long as you scrape the breading off the chicken. ---

The version with grilled chicken sounds like a great low-carb meal. 460 calories doesn’t sound too bad, really, although the sodium levels are still insane. ---

Ok, maybe I’m not that sorry. Still, I used to be on high blood pressure medicine and had to watch my salt intake. I went low carb for my diabetes, and my blood pressure completely normalized, to the point where I haven’t had to take medication for 3 years. Thing is, I’m not eating all the jarred, boxed, packaged food, all the fast foot, all the salt/sodium-saturated foods I used to eat. Now I can put kosher salt on my steak and not have to worry about it. One of these every now and then will be fine. Yum! ---

> [@RealityChuck](#): > > Chicken Cordon Blue – with bacon instead of ham. And much worse cheese. That’s what I was thinking. The nastiness seems to be mostly a visceral reaction to the idea of pieces of chicken being bread. Some fried chicken, cheese and a pork product isn’t my idea of inherently bad. Of course it’s unhealthy because it’s fast food but so is all their other food. ---
