i always thought the buns got in the way , so yum for me, and i find it strange that all the nutritionists are up in arms when most of the burgers from Burger King and Macca's have more calories and fat content , yet this burger is going to be the cause of all obesity in NZ

Common sense is not as common as you think.

Will have to get it via the drive-thru, not sure I could handle being in a room full of consumers eating these as their bodies spill over the sides of their seats. It's just too depressing to witness.

After the TV segment that showed that the BK Whopper had the most fat and calorie content, I now know I'm getting my moneys worth.. not paying more for less ...

My thoughts are no longer my own and is probably representative of our media-controlled government

Back when I ate meat, especially when I did a protein diet, this thing sounded like an awesome thing to try. Now I eat mostly raw food (no meat and very little dairy) it sounds quite horrible.

I haven't had KFC for years but I would be tempted to buy one just to give the big finger to nanny state.

All I can say is it is great advertising for them. There is nothing stopping anyone cooking up one of these themselves, I mean it is just food.

An 85kg individual would need to run at least 7km to burn off the double down. Need to run further if you eat fries and have a soft drink. Thats a lot of running!

I can't put a picture in my post for some reason but I had a funny one about this. One of those motivational ones, Life is short, make it shorter.....

Couldn't you just make one of these anyway by ordering two tasty breasts? That's my kind of sandwich.

You could say the same about all food. It would be fairer to only compare the difference between this and an "acceptable" meal.

if they had put buns on it there wouldnt be such an outcry, in fact they have reduced the energy value by removing the buns!
