Holy Double Down!!!!

This is the first official Snacks in the city Post! I have been toying with the Idea of this blog for a while but have never started an article. Well finally an event occurred in my snack-dom that has out done anything in previous memory.
Anyone on the net or well... anyone living knows about the meat monstrosity called the KFC "Double-Down". Well I am a Pescatarian ( mostly vegetarian but I include fishes in my diet) and this meat medley was not in the cards for me and really I had no desire for it. Well yesterday, Jason (my boyfriend and also pescatarian) was sneaking around the grocery store picking out peculiar items such as; 2 bricks of cheese, veggie chicken patties and fake bacon etc.... I think that you all are starting to get the picture. When I questioned him about this crazy idea.... he told me "Hey we deserve to dream too, don't we."
So this afternoon we had a super deeelish Vegetarian double down. OMG we both wanted another!

Here are some pics!

  1. Found you on Gaper's Block and while I'm truly repulsed by the actual Double Down, THIS does not look half bad. WTG on the creativity.

  4. Great idea and it looks promising for real. Out of curiosity, how does your creation stack up against its evil twin nutritionally? I suspect that the fat content and cholesterol will favor the Good Twin but the calories miiiiiiiight be nearly a wash. Just a hunch.
