KFC is running an ad proclaiming the return of the Double
Down sandwich (for a limited time), and it made me wonder: should McDonald’s
try to outdo them with a Triple Down sandwich?
A Triple Down sandwich would be easy for McDonald’s to make.
All they’d have to do is replace the 3 buns in the Big Mac with crispy chicken,
or maybe even have the middle one be a Filet o’ Fish, and have the hamburger
patties in between the new chicken (& fish) “buns”. But because it’s the Triple
Down™ sandwich, and that’s got to be huger than huge, the hamburger patties
would have to be the 1/3 pounder Angus beef hamburgers (from their discontinued
premium burger line {Hey, they’ve got to get rid of them somehow!}). And each
layer would have different sauce combination: it would have the Big
Mac’s “special sauce”, but each different layer would combine it with another
sauce; for example, honey mustard with the bottom chicken “bun”, tartar sauce
for the Filet o’ Fish filet, and BBQ or ranch for the underside of the top
chicken “bun”.
And, of course, for a limited time McDonald’s would offer
the Triple Down™ sandwich with the McRib as the center “bun” as an option.
Oh, and as a health-conscious option for health food fans,
the Triple Down™ sandwich will also be available with grilled chicken “buns”!
You think you’ve cornered the cynical clogged artery
sandwich market, KFC? Well, think again, because someone else is about to
Triple Down™ on great taste! (And more
filling!)
