KFC Has a Double Down Hot Dog and It's as Terrifying as It Sounds

[n2doc]

Back in 2010, when Kentucky Fried Chicken announced the release of its Double Down sandwich, everyone was in a huff about how such a fattening concept could make it onto the menu. Fast forward a few years and a few satisfied customers, and the Double Down has become a consistent staple in the KFC brand.

Now it looks like KFC Philippines is taking the next step toward the evolution of the Double Down with the new Double Down Dog. The dog is made with a fried chicken breast patty that's wrapped around a hot dog. Because replacing buns with fried meat is the whole point, right? The dog also has a choice of ketchup, mayo and cheese.

Business Insider reported that only 50 Double Down Dogs are available for purchase on Jan. 26 and 27 at participating locations. This means our readers currently in the Philippines might not even be able to get one after this sentence.

Better luck tomorrow.

A few individuals have already posted images of the hot dog on social media. It looks like a beast.

4. That looks obscene. That's not what a hotdog is supposed to look like

I've seen many "advertising versus reality" fast food photos...that's GOT to be one of the WORST. Dear GOD.

8. In the real picture, is the breast really small or the hot dog really big?

[KMOD]
