big smoking ban starts here soon, no smoking anywhere even bars! (casino's are exempt)

stupid fucking lawmakers

We've had it in place for.. year and a half now I think. It's awesome going to a bar and coming home not smelling.
Title: Re: KFC DoubleDown- OHMYGAWD!!
Post by: Hefe on April 15, 2010, 11:50:16 AM
yea, it is nice for us non-smokers, but horrible for Bars

just a bad business move
lower income means less taxes
less people just hanging out at the bar
less people buying cigarettes
less people playing Keno

just a bad move financially

even when I was a smoker....smoking WHILE you eat is sickening. At a bar...different story.

But some bars are smart....build a beer garden, where folks can take their drink outdoors and smoke.

the new law here says no smoking within 50 feet of an entrance too
so you would have to have a big outdoor area.

as awesome as it will be to NOT stink after being at the bar...

I think it is just a BAD law!

KFC's Double Down: Is There A Cardiologist In The House?

Yes, that's right. I put my cardiac health on the line today. I drove to the KFC on Harbor Boulevard in Garden Grove, steeled my nerves, crossed myself, walked in and ordered a Double Down. Let no one say I never take one for the team.

Note to the KFC in Garden Grove: the kids in this picture make the caption really, really creepy.

On the surface, it doesn't sound so bad. It's really a chicken club without the bun, except that it's also devoid of anything resembling a vegetable. Even iceberg lettuce has been banished from the Double Down.

It took eight minutes to get my sandwich; unlike pretty much everything else at KFC, the breaded chicken breasts are fried to order for the Double Down. They lovingly smear "Colonel's sauce" on the breasts, then layer on Monterey Jack and pepper Jack cheeses and two pieces of bacon (also, from the smell emanating from the back, freshly cooked). The two breasts are clapped together, wrapped in paper, put in a box and rushed to you.

The first thing you notice is how greasy it is. It soaked completely through the wax paper in which it was wrapped; six double-folded napkins later, it was still greasy enough to cause me to get grease on the touchscreen of my camera.

Then you dive in to the nutritional information: 540 calories, which is actually less than some of the "man meals" of other fast food chains (the Low Carb Six Dollar Burger at Carl's Jr., for example, has 570 calories). A whopping 32 grams of fat (10 of them are saturated and 0.5 are trans fats). The real kicker, though, is the massive 1,380 milligrams of sodium.

Let me put that into nutritional perspective for you with a mental image:

    1. Take a microwave-safe bowl and measure out two and a half tablespoons of Crisco.
    2. Toss eight ounces of boneless, skinless chicken breast into the bowl.
    3. Add a heaping half-teaspoonful of plain old table salt.
    4. Mix it all together, microwave until the chicken is cooked, and eat, licking the bowl clean.
