As a vegetarian, this may come as a bit of a shock. But I'm not grossed out by the KFC Double Down.
I think tomatoes and lettuce sandwiched between two pieces of fried chicken isn't a bad idea. Because most people would eat two or three pieces of fried chicken without the added nutrition of sandwich fillings. So what's the harm of deleting buttery slices of bread (which, if you have read Chick-Fil-A's health info, is actually worse than the chicken).
But one thing KFC advertises that raises my eyebrow is their "Buckets for the Cure" campaign. Something like fifty cents goes to Susan G. Komen for the Cure for every greasy, most-likely-cancer-causing bucket of kentucky-fried chicken you purchase.
So you buy fried breasts, and then you theoretically save some breasts.
But eating fried chicken isn't healthy. So you must eat something bad to do something good?
Not that I'm anti breast cancer prevention and research, but perhaps KFC should focus on, I don't know, heart health? And perhaps stop selling chicken by the bucket?
Just a thought.

how dare you speak negatively of the holy grail (the chick-fil-a chicken sandwich)! personally, i prefer to get my cfa sando without butter. but even if you do, it's about 320 calories and you'll be full for hours.
sorry to freak. but cfa is THE reason i'm not a vegetarian anymore. (i wish i were joking.)
p.s. i also know that isn't the message of this post. ;)
