I'm afraid so - there's an inappropriate amount of sodium in most processed foods, particularly burgers. When you get over your recommended daily intake of sodium in one hit then that's serious. People don't realise that we're getting way too much sodium in our diets which is a major cause of hypertension which leads to heart disease, etc.

I don't fathom how you could see it any other way. Sodium IS bad for you, because it's almost impossible to eliminate the massive amounts we consume in our diets.... Have you had your Cornflakes today?

Everything taken in moderation, with physical activity is what everyone should be doing.
However, this KFC 'double' is quite a hefty calorie, fat & sodium monster. It's amazing how people disregard these things and go for a good advertisment - points for the advertising industry I guess.

My brother tried to kill me with one on Saturday. It was a oily salt flavor that took a while to get the taste out of my mouth.

Baffles me why people would still go and eat those things knowing what's in them. Even if you don't, it doesn't take much to know how oily it would be...
