OH MY BLESSED LORD!

From Consumerist, which got it from FoodGeekery.com, comes this video of a KFC sandwich in test market in Omaha called the Double Down. The video quality and sound are bad, but watch it and then read what it is below the player:



Two Slices of Cheese
Two Pieces of Bacon
Colonel's Sauce
Two Boneless Fried Chicken Breasts as "Bread"

One thing for certain, KFC is about to get more "Heavy Users."

Here's a screen cap from ">Food Geekery (click to make it bigger):



As a public service to my Jewish readers...I'm guessing...Milk+Meat+Pork = Trafe

From HuffPost and their superb writer Jason Linkins:

Max Baucus is a conservative Democrat from Montana who arguably holds the fate of health care reform in his hands. Another fun fact about Max Baucus is that he's accepted so goddamn much money from corporate health care interests this year that lobbyist cash is now permanently imprinted on his genome.

Whatever You Do, Don't Drop the Radio!

Biting critique of Radio Shack's decision to drop the Radio.



BTW, if you don't read Consumerist every day, you are depriving yourself a shot of cynical humour that can lift the sourest day and make it dulce de leche.

Now owned by Consumer Reports, Consumerist helps consumers find justice for their product problems, and pokes deserved spotlights at we marketers' most egregious decisions. Like downsizing a product, keeping the price the same, and doing it "to better serve the consumer." Or whatnot. Happily, Consumer Reports did not take the sass out of Consumerist. It's just as bitchy as ever. But now with 100% more ads to subscribe to Consumer Reports! Free! Which, BTW, you should also do.There is nothing more fascinating than reading how CU simulates product use to test products.

Or am I just a big dork?

The Wedding Vid

I think this is the sweetest thing. And my favorite part (let me pause for a moment and emphasize that I am laughing with, not at) is that not one person in this church seems to be able to dance or clap to the beat. Ah, the rythm of my people. ;-)
