Introducing: The "skin-wich"
http://www.geekologie.com/2010/08/mm..._kfc_skinw.php
Kentucky Fried Cruelty is allegedly testing a new sandwich at select stores. What kind of sandwich? Try "5 layers of fried chicken skin, lumped on a bun and topped with white american cheese and bacon." Mmmm, I can already feel my intestines trying to escape out my butthole. Per somebody who had the misfortune of trying one: Nasty. The richness of all that fatty seasoned skin is totally overwhelming. It's also tongue-parchingly-salty. I started to gag and got that "brushing the back of your tongue" feeling. Had to spit it out. In KFC's defense, the sandwich was luke-warm after taking the pics. But I doubt it would be much better hot. With this latest move and the Double Down's success, KFC may be catching up to Hardees/BK in the "making sandwiches so nauseating they generate buzz" dept. I don't know about you, but when I close my eyes and think "delicious", a pile of fried chicken skin is definitely in the top three. Okay, okay -- top ten. Thousand. Right behind a football. |
My wife absolutely loves crispy chicken skin. I just asked her and she said she would probably like it, but would never eat it.:) As for me, I'd rather have the equivalent in crisp bacon topped with tomato for that amount of fat and calories.
