This is a mighty challenging piece of food. Anyone tried one?
Ugh.
I’ve had a Triple Whopper with cheese. But I will never try this.
Here’s the thread already going about this. I’m eating one right now. I didn’t expect the chicken to be so thick. It’s getting hard to eat any more of it, it’s so filling. I probably won’t get another one, just wanted to try it.
Merged astro’s thread with Gangster Octopus’s older one.
Almost. When I was heading back today from a bit of a workout, in need of calories, I literally cut into a KFC across two lanes of traffic for this thing, drove towards the drive-through, and then thought the better of it. I chickened out and went straight to the exit lane. For whatever reason, I just couldn’t bring myself to do it.
Yes, but can you get medical marijuana, now? 
I suspect this Double Downer isnt any less healthy than a triple whopper.
Nasty.
Gross.
A coronary waiting to happen.
The least desirable way to see two hot breasts next to each other.
I just had one. To be honest, there’s so much chicken that I could barely taste the other components (beyond a slightly gooier texture), so overall it was fine if you like Original Recipe KFC, though very filling indeed (as has already been mentioned).
Even though there’s a hunk of meaty pork with slippery creamy sauce between them?
Yeesh, I can’t believe I just typed that.
I’d just as soon eat an actual baby.
OMG, that looks beyond, BEYOND awful. I know what I’m having for dinner tonight.
Even though. And now I’m imagining two sexy, beautiful, firm, perky breasts… with cheese, bacon and sauce on them… and it just ruined the beauty. I love breasts, I hate bacon.
I will admit to trying one (2 actually - I was with friends and we ordered one fried and one grilled). billfish678 makes an excellent point. The cheese is flavorless. I’m nodelicate flower, and am not intimidated by large portions but I don’t think I’d feel great after eating a whole one. The grilled one tasted not unlike a casserole my former mother-in-law used to serve.
The other thing is that it was on the pricey side for fast food (and I don’t know if it varies by location but our meal was not fast at all). The sandwich itself was about average, I guess ($5.49 I seem to recall) but their drink prices were high. One of my friends observed that for the exact same money the same group could go to [a local place] and have food as good or better, and we wouldn’t have to carry our own food or bus our own table.
It has fewer calories and not that much more fat than the sandwich I usually get at Panera when we go there.
All in all, I’m on no rush to ever have another one. My conclusion was that I would not do well trying to stick to the Atkins diet. It cried out for the addition of vegetables.
Yup. Tried one today myself, and this spot-on. It’s basically eating two pieces of KFC chicken. The sauce adds a bit of zing, but the bacon is really thin and the cheese is just texture. Just lots of chicken.
A triple whopper with cheese has 1230 calories (!!!). The fried double down has 540, and the grilled has 460, according to KFC, which are actually not unreasonable numbers for a lunch meal, provided you get nothing else with any calories.
Well, I bit the big one. Literally.
I was under the assumption from the photos that this sandwich was made from 2 of the snacker patties, so I got the $7.99 combo. Nope, it’s a full fledged meal in one, between two thighs, in additional to steak fries (which actually REALLY REALLY fucking good - KFC, I had no idea!), Mac & Cheese (which isn’t bad, but I’ve had way better), and a drink (blue Mt Dew!)
So I bit in. First impression - OMFG this is DISGUSTING. I’m going to die. And then the pepperjack (yes, there are THREE slices of cheese, all different types) kicked in and I had to reach for the Mt Dew. Okay, the pepperjack wore off. Lets have another of those fat fries. Salty, but damn tasty. The Mac & Cheese just seems like fatty filler at this point. Going back for seconds, and I’m not even sure where to bite in. I hope this thing is boneless. Hey, I taste bacon in this bite!
I’m scarfing down the fries (yes, I eat fries with mayo, got a problem with that?) and mac & cheese and trying to avoid touching the “burger.” Eventually that’ll be all that’s left, and I don’t want to feel like a wuss, so I need to do some catching up. The closer you get to the middle, the more bacon you taste.
Holy shit, I don’t remember putting Mayo on the SANDWICH. There’s fucking mayo on this too!!!
You know, I’m sure this is still healthier for me than the triple baconator from Wendys. lordkat.com has an awesome clip of his test drive. I kind of wish I recorded my Double Downer experience, but I doubt anyone would want to see THAT.
I feel sick. Never again. I’m sticking with Popeyes.
It made This is Why You’re Fat!!! Just scroll down to the second entry on the front page. (Well, right now)
So I tried it.
Meh.
For the price, I could have just bought one chicken breast and gotten a bacon cheeseburger from the BK down the street.
I found that claim very hard to believe when I first saw the thing, and apparently I was not alone.
