KFC Just Released One Of The Most Ridiculous Fast Food Menu Items Ever
KFC has introduced a hot dog wrapped in a cheese-stuffed chicken breast.
The so-called "Double Down Dog" has caused a stir on social media.
It appears to be a hot dog version of the infamous "Double Down," a sandwich that uses chicken patties in place of bread.

And the Double Down Dog's popularity on social media is free advertising for KFC.
Here's a photo of the original Double Down.
