ARE YOU KIDDING ME! DO NOT EAT

Just when we thought that the food industry was making a turn towards healthier choices KFC came out yesterday with a chicken sandwich that should not be eaten. Its called the Double Down Sandwich. This is not your regular grilled chicken with lettuce, tomato, and bun, this is two boneless Original Recipe Filets, two strips of bacon, two slices of Monterey Jack and pepperjack cheese and a special Colonel's Sauce. Oh and did we mention you can get this in a grilled version. BIG DEAL! This new sandwich has 540 calories, 32 grams of fat and 1380 mg of sodium. WOW! The sodium in this is almost equal to the amount that you should be getting in a day, and this is just one meal. So do yourself a favor DON'T TRY IT. Stick with the chicken but add it to whole wheat pasta, a salad or a wrap. Your body will thank you for it.
