DoubleDown Takedown

I have tasted heaven. When I first heard of the KFC Double Down, I was amazed. "Why didn't I think of this?" Thing is, I probably did, but never executed. So, in the battle for the best munchie-cancelling food with Taco Bell and Jack in the Box, KFC comes through with the Double Down.

It looks good. It smells good. It tastes good.

Don't let anyone ever tell you how unhealthy fast food is. They were brainwashed by diet pill commercials and stupid Super-Size Me movies. You can eat whatever you want, what you do afterwards is your own god-damned business. You can get fat, or you can earn whatever the fuck you eat and burn it off. I go with the latter. So something like a Double Down is perfect.

The one negative thing I have to say about the Double Down is the price.

$5.00

Five dollars? Surely it does not cost that much to make this. Yeah, they gotta make a profit. So having had finally tried the Double Down before some councilman decides that it is unhealthy and bans them, I figured it would be a great idea to experiment and make my own Double Downs.

It's the Double Down TakeDown.

Now I know this has done before in other forms, but I have only witnessed the pics online of the McGangBang. I have never seen anyone actually successfully order one from the counter, either. Besides, the purpose of defeating the Double Down from KFC would be offering a similar “lo-carb” “Atkins” South beach” diet-type of alternative, for less.

And here is what I have come up with:

1. McDonald's: 2 McChickens, 1 McDouble. Throw the bread, pickles, and useless space-filler lettuce away. You will still have some Mayo from the McChickens and Ketchup from the McDouble.

$3.24 Total

2. Burger King: 2 Spicy Chicken Crisps, 1 Double Cheeseburger. Same as Mickey D's, throw away the bread and useless crap.

$3.24 Total

3. Wendy's: 2 Chicken Sandwiches, a Jr.Bacon Cheeseburger. Throw away the bread, lettuce, tomato, but keep the bacon and pathetic burger patty.

$3.24 Total

I will be searching more dollar menu items at various locations, but my purpose is to beat the $5.00 KFC price tag. Sure, nothing beats the original crispy chicken that KFC uses, but you do get Burger meat, and sometimes bacon.

Failed:

Weinershnitzel: 2 Chili Cheeseburgers, 1? Chili Dog? Chili Cheese Fries Burrito? Chili made it messy. And most times, the Chili Cheeseburgers are up to $1.39. Making it over $4 when you buy 3 items.
