Getting Even More Intimate with the Double Down
The KFC Double Down is on Twitter, and it is following me. I like it better than all of my other Twitter friends, too, because it says things like, “This is my 100th tweet. Not bad for a sandwich. A delicious, filling sandwich.”
It tweeted to Anthony Bordain: @NoReservations: I come in peace. And Original Recipe. And Grilled. All delicious!
Andrew Zimmern tweeted to it: @kfcdoubledown Fermented walrus anus? Yes! KFC Doubledown? No f-ing way!
And the other day, it tweeted to me in response to my review of it!
I think my new dream job is to tweet as foodstuff.

I tweeted about your porn yesterday, actually. I’m sure you’ll find a way to repay me someday. WITH A DQ BLIZZARD SENT TO MY HOUSE IN DRY ICE, HOPEFULLY.

Hehe….I wish it would make it in tact….I would surely send you one….man o man I love the Blizzard. Thanks for the Tweetlove!

“I like it better than all of my other Twitter friends…”
I’ve been outclassed by a SANDWICH. A FAST-FOOD sandwich. Not even a Tom Colicchio sandwich.
*sob*

Oh, um, you’re #2?
Or, um, #1 amongst humans?
Surely that counts for something.

you are practically FAMOUS!! mazel tov on the fantastic shout out. truthfully, im green with envy.

It’s funny how things like this make me like the chain as a whole better, too. Suddenly KFC as a whole is clever and has a sense of humor to me, not judge the marketing execs who decided this would be a good idea.
Sammy Skye
agreed! between the double down and the tweets, the dudes at kfc must be marketing gurus.

Nevermind! We’ve been duped!
Sammy Skye
is it weird that i find this devastating? if you cant trust tweeters to be honest, who can you trust??
Travis
I was honest…about tweeting as a sandwich.

I’m so happy to hear that you and the Double Down are making nice on Twitter!

Meeeeeeeeeeeee, too. Although I found out today that it’s a real person! Named Travis! And he commented right below you. So disillusioned.

Love the blog! Sorry that I am not *actually* a sandwich.

You will always be a sandwich to me. <3
