Embrace the bacruncheeesiness™

One of the best things I ever put into my mouth was a “sandwich” of some nice marbled kosher corned beef between two crispy fried potato pancakes. I made sure there was a defibrillator standing by and enjoyed every bite.

One of Colonel Sanders’ offspring must have been standing by (although I can’t picture a Sanders at Manny’s Deli), or at least one of the marketing minions from Yum brands, because KFC has created their own version of the Jewish heart attack on a plate: The Double Down.

Check out that picture. I don’t even eat half the stuff on that sandwich and I want one, just to experience the bacruncheesiness.

Ever since that guy fell down the stairs holding the chocolate bar and the other guy was at the bottom of the stairs holding a jar of peanut better—and you Reese’s fans know what happened next--food manufacturers have realized the potentially new business opportunities in new food and flavor combinations.

The best of them are great examples of the best of Twisted Thinking. My next idea: The Tornado. Chocolate, bananas, and whipped cream between two funnel cakes.

I’m surprised they haven’t had that at the Wisconsin State Fair yet. A man can dream...
