"Food Porn"

Hey all,

In the midst of our efforts to eat locally, I have been intrigued and disgusted by the unhealthy phenomenon that is processed food. But KFC has taken the cake, or the chicken if you will. Here is a link to an article discussing the "Double Down," the new menu item that features a sandwich that uses two pieces of chicken as the bread.

Not only is this really unhealthy, it goes to show what lengths American food companies will go to in order to be first place in artery clogging...
As we have discussed and read about several times, the idea of a food desert is frightening, especially with "non-edible food-like substances" as some of the options...
It seems to me that the food industry is imposing some kind of sick and twisted, human-induced Darwinism upon the disadvantaged and uninformed. (Just one of my more extreme conspiracy theories)
