I too was cold calling the RI KFC's to see if the Double Down was still available and I received a Bad News/Good News/Great News conundrum. <br /><br />The few KFC's I called had stopped selling them. Bad News nonetheless. But two restaurants (I didn't make a note of which ones, sorry) said while they did stop selling them outright, they did still have the ingredients to make them and would sell them, if one so desired. And you thought that that was the Great News, didn't you? Nope, just the Good.<br /><br />The Great News is is that one "manager" had told me that though their test market had expired, he was told that in the near future (most likely 2010) that KFC was going ... wait for it people ... NATIONWIDE!!! Yessiree, you heard me correctly! They are going cross country with this baby, all across this great nation of ours! God Bless America!<br /><br />Well, that's it folks. Hope you all sleep soundly tonight knowing what might be. <br /><br />[Ed. Note- Please take this "news" with a huge grain of salt as it is just here-say and not etched in stone anywhere.]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27945607.post-90793804874505971132010-01-16T14:49:11.774-05:002010-01-16T14:49:11.774-05:00:( Bummer.

Our stupid KFC's here never got 'em, and I'd bet you just about anything something like that would be a huuuuuuge hit in the Midwest. We're fairly hearty eaters here, after all. :) Though I wonder what the cost overhead would be on KFC if the DoubleDown were to ever take off? They couldn't stay very inexpensive, I'd have to guess.J.

I was hoping to try one...This is horrible news....<br /> I was hoping to try one of those things. I heard Dennis Miller talking about them on his radio show a few weeks ago. His argument was that it's not really a sandwich because no bread is involved. "It's just two pieces of chicken with stuff in the middle!" he said. I was like, "Whatever. I still want one."Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517857978576422454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27945607.post-72165856856470648272010-01-16T06:52:24.431-05:002010-01-16T06:52:24.431-05:00Haha...that is hilarious...but I do not mean to la...Haha...that is hilarious...but I do not mean to laugh at your plight.Eating The Roadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06441852924342104644noreply@blogger.com
