Will you ingest KFC's culinary masterpiece?
Well, here it is, the official commercial for KFC's bunless abomination known as the Double Down, which goes on sale today. In case you haven't heard, it's a bacon and cheese sandwich with two pieces of fried chicken for bread. The commercial actually first aired almost a year ago, when KFC was testing this cardio-catastrophe. Reactions ranged from mortified concern to morbid curiosity, but it was clear the Colonel had one buzzworthy slab of Homer Simpson grotesquerie on his hands. Now that DD-Day is upon us, will you be trying this new American treasure? If you're feeling tempted, you might want to take a sneak peek at what you'll be getting for your $4.99.
