As the obesity epidemic continues to plunge America into deeper doo-doo, along comes KFC to add insult to injury with their new “Double Down.” They take a heaping helping of bacon and cheese and shove it between … are you ready? … two deep fried pieces of chicken!

Game over, Colonel.” Check out her full report, along with some tips, at this Shine.Yahoo link!
