KFC introduces surreal sandwich that replaces bread with fried chicken

I've done that all the time to eat meat sandwiches.
I can make my own Double Downs for less than their ripoff price and make them healthier.

I will blame mainly KFC for what people want.

The advertising, the colors and the packaging, nothing tackles your brain into thinking that is sewage.
Yes, we are responsible for what we choose but we also have fallen victim of pictures of beautiful green farms and red barns, that is a fantasy injected into our minds and culture, it kills reasoning.

The lurking disgusting reality behind this is hidden.

You won't believe what brain washing can make people do.
It's called POWER

:/ Not everyone is weak minded as you state they are.

People aren't fricking 4 years old we don't jump at the very site of color.

Its your fault if you want to eat that damn food.

Are you really this naive?

Of course, It's not only about the colors, this advertising and brain washing has taken place for the past forty years.
It is much more than colors.
Fast food has slowly grown as part of our culture.
It is also dirty cheap which makes it all even more tempting.

You do not have to be a child to be misguided and brain washed.

Lmfao idk where you grew up buddy, but its nothing like you think, get from under that cloud of bullshit.

grow it and kill it yourself! Mmhmmm

Why would I wish to kill an animal that I've raised myself and likely bonded with? Why would I wish to kill any sentient being?

You may be closer to the truth than you think. When I was a teenager, I worked at Burger King and one of the ingredients in the chicken was "edible plastic fillers".

i'll take 2 please and a diet coke

you're starting to sound like a vegan man, not good.

God eats meat? As in "burnt offerings"?

God's original plan was also supposedly paradise on earth, where animals and man lived harmoniously. Animals weren't fodder to feed man until after the fall.

I don't know why God would have to eat anything given that he isn't supposed to have any corporeal form.

I'd love to see where it says that though, out of sheer curiosity.

It's also strange that meat should somehow be a mandatory staple given its health disadvantages. The only time I know of in the Bible that God actually ordains a diet, it's when he commands Ezekiel to eat grains and whatnot.

One other note--many times in the Bible, the word "food" is translated to "meat."

And if you analyze the events of the Bible and God's purpose, you'll find that it is in times of peace and prosperity that man is held to a vegetarian diet--Eden, and the future Kingdom of God--and only in times of insecurity that God allows the consumption of meat. In Biblical times, you pretty much ate whatever you could to survive (save for a few "abominations" like shellfish and pork). The Israelites were a desert tribe and herding society. Vegetarianism would have been nearly impossible. But now we live in an age where vegetarian food is bountiful, and meat is no longer a dietary necessity.

Christ too may have been a vegetarian. I realize that he multiplied fish to feed the hungry and whatnot, but fish (Jesus Fish!) was symbolic of spiritual nourishment. James, his half-brother, was supposedly vegetarian, and was raised as such, which is a pretty good indication that Jesus was as well.

I didn't know that people believed that God had a corporeal form. Interesting. Or that he ate for pleasure. I'm an atheist, but my conception of God (a term I still sometimes use in a symbolic sense) is of total transcendence. Something totally inconceivable by our feeble human minds (which is why we resort to personifying "him").

I wouldn't think that a force or entity such as God would be subject to human whims like desire or hunger.

I mean, how do you think of God? As an actual man in the sky? Why would God need a human form? What use would limbs or organs (particularly sexual organs!) be to the Almighty?

I don't mean to seem like I'm challenging your beliefs or anything. I'm genuinely interested.

Do you believe in evolution by natural selection, or are you a creationist? Personally, I think Darwinism is an important factor in a person's worldview, because it means that all animals are brethren to varying degrees. Although if God did create all living beings, I can't imagine that animals would only be here for the sake of humans. I mean, why give them emotional sensitivity if they're just walking meals for human consumption? What's the deal with God and bloody sacrifice?

We've had too many debates on evolution on Current to recall. I probably shouldn't have brought it up again. I'm really more interested in your theological views. Although that bit about prehistory existing before "proper" creation I hadn't heard before. Creative interpretation.

I must say that the evidence for evolution goes far beyond animals looking like one another, but no, we should drop it.

Wow, i never knew any of this... I kind of feel like a bad christian, even though I don't really consider myself a Christian, just a believer of God and Jesus

I hadn't heard a lot of that either. That's some pretty mindblowing theology. What denomination are you?

okay this is completely and utterly rediculous and i blame you. why did you have to come into this topic and write "i am a christian"? cause we have a huge waste of a discussion about god. this is a chicken burger okay ... CHICKEN BURGER!!! at what point did a chicken burger have anything to do with god, and the point someone decided to tell everyone else their religionm, well thank you for the spam and the 40 emails with so satisfying conclusion but it ends just after i clear up a few things:

1) humans are carniverous. meat is part of a stable diet. vegetarians generally have to drink protein shakes and stuff like that to make up for the l;ack of protein in their diets. anyone who says otherwise needs to look a their meat tooth in their mouth, and science.

2) fish should not be confused with other animal meat it has very different heath benefits.

3) evolution happens every day, research the journey of the caterpiller of sometyhing.

4) the laws of sin? FFS its a fucking cghicken burger! wake up and smell reality man. its a chicken burger, okay chicken burger.

5) oh, so way back animal offerings would clense youi of sin? but things have moved on since then god did a windows update to home edition and decided "no, this time they can come to a church and talk about it and there ya go! clensed" no. people sacrificed because they "thought" it was a sin clenser... is that it huh? am i sarcifising with my breadless chicken burger? is that what you like? bitta, breadless chicken burger sacrifice? yeah i feel clensed.

"I'm christian and I believe..." there ya go, thats how smoothly it, it was falling off a cliff smooth.

We went off on a tangent, but I was curious about some things he said in passing. It's what you might call a conversation. I'm fascinated with religion and also interested in animal rights, so naturally I had some questions.

HAHA! lol.

haha yeah

What a website! And this sandwich def IS on it!

Beat me to it MizPiz.

he forgot shredded cheese! that's the best part!

i love this.

Holy shit! First Nettle and now Slarabee? Were you both sucked into the same time-space vortex? And they had a KFC there?

I agree with both your points, slarabee.

If it doesn't make them stupid, what does it make them? Ignorant? Self-destructive? Lazy? I guess.

Indeed.

me 2 lol i thought it came from the onion...

Me too!

Exactly my thoughts! But when I saw it was real, then it became the funniest thing I have seen this week. :) I love it.

Fucking A

i totally agree with you missamanda. the one thing i will say though is- if on the wrapper for this you could see the fat and sodium content right before your eyes (like you should see) then it would be even less the consumer's fault and more the chain's. the thing is the obesity problem begins in childhood and snowballs right through the teen years... who's to blame for that part of the population?

the parents are responsible...i agree, thinking about it further, that even giving people the opportunity to buy such a thing and feed it not only ot themselves but to CHILDREN is just gross and wrong and irresponsible

but i believe that the government shouldn't be in charge of 100% of what people can and can't do, and to say "KFC can't sell this"...is just a violation of small freedoms...i hope that the kids today in this "green, local, organic" day and age will learn something or be excited about eating healthier. for now, we have the fast food nation teaching the young ones it's ok to binge on grease-soaked chicken and gravy.

it's unfortunate that even with the nutritional facts available to people, they still feed it to children and eat it themselves (I eat Wendy's once a month tops, and i feel gross every time lol). grill up a red pepper if you're hungry, i did it last night and never felt better. lol.

My arteries clogged reading that.

haha that's one of the bars around here, I've never tried that though.

i do but i add mayo, ranch dressing, and chocolate syrup, with any bottom shelf tennessean whiskey for dipping. we call it an "obama death panel."

HAHAHA
