LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Meat lovers, relax. But chickens, beware.

KFC says Americans are gobbling down so many Double Down sandwiches that the fast- food chain will offer the bunless, meaty sandwich longer than it had planned.

Originally, the sandwich — bacon and cheese surrounded by chicken fillets — was to have been available through Sunday. But KFC said Wednesday that the sandwich will be available for as long as customer demand remains high.

The Double Down came onto the market April 12 and was supposed to have lasted about six weeks. But it tapped into Americans’ fascination with quirky food and became a viral-marketing sensation.
