Not to condemn or condone this sandwich or anything but here are the nutritional facts...

Per the KFC nutrition guide,
Grilled variety is 460 calories with 23 grams of fat (9 grams saturated), 61 grams of protein, 3 grams of carbs, 1430 mgs of sodium
Regular version is 540 calories with 32 grams of fat (10 grams saturated), 53 grams of protein, 11grams of carbs, 1380 mgs of sodium

In terms of fast food specifically (and minus the salt) this isn't that unhealthy of a sandwich. Especially, if you on the low carb, high protein kick...

Additionally: at least two more customers ordered the sandwich while I was there.

lol there are so many double down haters out there. it is no more or less healthy than a quarter pounder with cheese or a whopper. and it probably has the least amount of calories of any sandwich with bacon in it.

think outside the bun. errr….

Wow – I mean…wow. Great article, and I admire your bravery in trying it. You'll feel it the next morning.

I understand substituting lettuce for bread to be healthy (like In-N-Out), but substituting chicken for bread seems to serve no purpose. If I'm going to consume a daily intake of calories on a sandwich, give me the bread.

Scary what this “sandwich” says about the American diet
