Celebrity Buzz John Travolta phoned up a KFC in England and asked to reserve a table. Here is an awesome quote from the employee who turned him down. Why is John Travolta eating at KFC? What kind of human being calls to reserve a table at KFC? Why does England have KFC? I don't care. This anonymous employee is now a folk hero who is a much better spokesperson for the 99% than Occupy Wall Street.
They all look like they’re having a good time and all, but … I’m just not into it. Maybe it’s because I prefer Popeye’s.
After witnessing a man tossing chicken bones from his car window, a Welsh police officer hit his emergency brake, injuring 3 people in the process. The brave officer is a hero to fried chicken establishments everywhere.
Peter Serafinowicz creates the least appealing ad for KFC imaginable. Think they’ll like it?

Jeff has fun with a little double entendre.

Maybe. It surfaced on the internet, so take it with 11 herbs and grains of salt.
A KFC employee does not take kindly to being recorded. I'd also be upset if I had to make Double Downs for drunk people with Flip cams.
Food Buzz Five juicy layers of crisp golden-brown fried chicken skins, American cheese and a generous helping of bacon between two hearty buns. It may be fake, but so was The DoubleDown, until KFC started selling them.
Food Buzz Some fast-food ad campaigns work because they're funny, some work because they're creepy as hell, and others simply don't work at all. These would be from that third category. You can see the rest of the list over at Heavy.
Doublicious all the way! a KFC Double-Down parody of Yosemitebear's 'Double Rainbow' video.
Don't play with your food, unless Colonel Sanders says so. Click through for more pictures.
Nate Silver returns, this time to determine the unhealthiest fast food sandwich using math. The chart uses one (1) KFC Double Down as a unit of comparison, though it turns out that the DD isn't actually the unhealthiest in statistical terms. (CONGRATS TO WENDY'S!)
Hot off the success (is success the right word?) of the Double Down comes a new KFC prototype/monstrosity. Six thick-cut fried chicken breasts, still dripping with hot vat oil, and all the fixings, baked into one savory pie.
I tried my best to capture the experience in video, since words fail when it comes to KFC's newest sandwich. This is very gross, and I hope this will keep you from eating it — consider it a PSA. Also, it cost $5.98 (including tax) when I bought mine in Brooklyn, and took forever to make, I guess because of the bacon. Or because to person who made it had to overcome so much revulsion.
Last summer, KFC ran a test campaign to see how people reacted to their meat and cheese monster called “The Double Down.” Yesterday, KFC announced The Double Down will be a reality starting on April 12th. (This is your fault, Internet.)
What's a white guy to do when he awkwardly finds himself in a crowd full of black folks? KFC has the answer.

This is perhaps man's greatest achievement or evidence of our civilization's impending doom. Maybe it's both. Meet the KFC “double down.” Although no mention of it is made on KFC.com and we have never seen an ad for it ourselves, we are being lead to believe that it is real by Foodgeekery.com.
