That chicken thing doesn't hold a candle to the fare at Taco Town !

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A') crunchy all beef taco smothered in nacho cheese, lettuce, tomato, and special Southwestern sauce; wrapped in a soft flour tortilla with a layer of re-fried beans in between; wrapped in a savory corn tortilla with a middle layer of Monterrey jack cheese; wrapped in a deep fried gordita shell smeared with a layer of special ‘guacomolito’ sauce; wrapped in a corn husk filled with pico de gallo; then wrapped in an authentic Parisian crepe filled with egg, gruyere, sausage and portobello mushrooms; wrapped in a Chicago-style, deep-dish, meat lover’s pizza; rolled up in a blueberry pancake; dipped in batter and deep fried until it’s golden brown; and served in a commemorative tote bag filled with spicy vegetarian chili.

To beat it all, KFC chicken producers now implant 'chicken' material onto the backs of beef cattle and periodically harvest the tumorous 'chicken' like mass

and they have genetically altered the chickens to have no lower intestine or rectum so allowing a chick to grow from hatched egg to 5 pounds in only 6 days.

:P

I usually can get people to believe me when I tell them about the new genetically engineered "boneless chicken". I tell them it's like seedless grapes but with chicken. Some think it's a great idea ! 8O The charade breaks down when I do my boneless chicken impersonation. :mrgreen:

I can imagine a world where the Monsantos and the KFC's control things to such an extent that this crap is the only food available and the price is not as affordable as today. Witness the bill earlier this year requiring registration of organic produce production.

It would be ironic if was not so sad at what things have become. Try growing organic vegetables and you have to submit to all kinds of bureaucracy and regulation meanwhile the big corps are given free reign to genetically engineer boneless chickens and other Frankenstein foods.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'K')FC is now offering a "sandwich" which consists of bacon, two kinds of cheeses and sauce between two pieces of fried chicken. That's right, fried chicken as a bun instead of bread.

The Vancouver Sun has done an independent calorie analysis for the "Double Down" and has concluded the "sandwich" likely has 1228 calories. For comparison:

-- Wendy's Triple with Everything and Cheese (960 calories, 26 gms of fat)
-- Burger King Stacker Quad (1020 calories, 69 gms of fat)
-- 3 McDonalds Big Macs (1620 calories, 87 gms fat)

A humdinger of a morsel like this should come with a coupon on the
wrapper. With each 1000 coupons, you get a free home defibrillator
or a chicken feather boa for those dressy, eating out nights at KFC.
And tell all the soup company roosters to eat their hearts out...

Since white bread is worthless from a nutritional standpoint, i guess it doesn't matter. I'm not eating it.

As a side note. One thing i like about Wisconsin is its organic movement. You guys in the south can eat that GMO crap! We also have an abundance of plus sized women who love to party!

I'm fleeing to Canada if Monsanto takes over.

AFAIK the point of bread on a sandwich is to keep your hands from getting all messy. I fail to see how fried chicken is going to fulfill that roll.

Like something right out of the Atkins low-carb diet cookbook.

Hence the lack of bread of any sort.

I knew plenty of llargish people (BMI>>30) in Louisiana that went on that diet, eating bunless cheeseburgers, bacon wrapped chicken breast drenched in butter cream sauce... all sorts of stuff like that. They would say "fat and calories don't matter, its the carbs man, its the carbs".

This is an atkins dieter's wet dream.

After my healthy lunch today of a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread, an apple, and a banana, I think I could down one of those bad boys right now. I should not be looking a pictures of food. :(

Problem is the hours I would need to run on a treadmill to work it off. Not to mention all the nasty stuff that is in processed food, particularly fast food.

Dadgummit I miss having a teenaged metabolism.

DOUBLE DOWN BABY!!!
