  Why can't you use soap on cast iron?

  1 0 You know, I think the no-soap rule is actually a myth.   From what I've read of this guy, he's usually very diligent in his research: http://www.seriouseats.com/2010/06/how-to-buy-season-clean-maintain-cast-iron-pans.html   From the comments of that page: "That's a myth, probably a hangover from when soaps used to contain lye and powerful detergents that would pit the metal. Modern soaps are very gentle, and designed to attack only grease, not the polymer build-up on a good cast iron pan. That said, it's best to avoid it in the early stages of building up your seasoning, but even then, if you need a little, it's not the end of the world as long as you carefully dry, heat, and re-oil your pan with each use."

  0 0 You know, I don't really think the missing bun is being "replaced". In fact, I don't think it would provide much more nutrition than the breading on the fried chicken. Of course I think that chicken + bacon + cheese + sauce is an awful formula for a meal. But I also think that chicken + bacon + cheese + sauce + bread wouldn't be any better, and might even be slightly worse. And considering that I don't foresee any of my coworkers saying "Hey, bring me back another Double Down, will you?" anytime soon, I guess what I'm saying is pick your battles. I completely agree about Jamie Oliver though. Especially since his babies would be so adorably British. Jason commented over 2 years ago

  0 0 "not nearly as good an example of what's wrong with the American diet" vs. "a perfect example of American malnutrition" And to clarify, I think that the Double Down is widely perceived as a novelty item, which is why I think it is less dangerous than say, a cheeseburger with mayonnaise that is widely considered to be a standard lunch option. I do not think that that this "sandwich" is a healthy food. Jason commented over 2 years ago

  0 0 Sorry for the perceived attitude, wasn't intended. It seems like you don't agree with my first paragraph. In fact, you explicitly contradict it. But I'm intrigued by this four-food-group junk food idea. How does it work? Jason commented over 2 years ago

• Comment on freikja's answer…

  0 0 To be honest, I can see why this sandwich is being talked about a lot, but I think it's more funny than sad, and not nearly as good an example of what's wrong with the American diet as nearly everything else that would be a bad example of the American diet. And no, I haven't had one. I might have one eventually for the novelty of it, but I really don't feel the need to defend what I eat to people who didn't ask. Jason commented over 2 years ago
