Denny’s new sandwich…one of the seven signs of the Apocalypse?

Yeah, the Internet has been abuzz for since word of Denny’s new sandwich leaked out earlier this month.

It’s a new addition to their $2 $4 $6 $8 value menu…the $4 portion to be specific.

The sandwich is the Fried Cheese Melt.

In a nutshell, it’s four fried mozzarella sticks stuck inside a grilled cheese sandwich.

That’s right.

Cheese. Surrounded by breading. Surrounded by cheese. Surrounded by breading.

Oh, and accompanied by marinara sauce. Gotta have something healthy to drown all that cholesterol in.

Many are wondering if Denny’s is trying to top KFC’s Double Down sandwich on the outrageousness scale.

To me, it sounds like it’s three steps down from Mimi’s Cafe’s Five-Way Grilled Cheese sandwich.

The only twist is that extra layer of breading separating the two cheeses.

Will it be worth the reported 895 calories? I’ll leave that to you to ponder.

The Fried Cheese Melt, along with four other new value items, will debut at a Denny’s near you next Tuesday (August 24).

Update: Denny’s is unleashing the Fried Cheese Melt early. Saturday at midnight to be exact. Countdown is progressing…
