Welp, America, we've officially been outdone. By Canadian Colonel Sanders, no less. In KFCs all across our Northern neighbor, you can now get what is essentially a McDonald's Big Mac (special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, sesame seed bun) with the all-beef patties replaced by pieces of crispy, flaky fried chicken. Two of them. It's called the Big Boss, and it's kinda the most American thing ever. Except not.

No word yet on whether this'll make it down to the States, but let's just say that Canada has often exported some of its best and brightest down South (what up, Rick Moranis?). Here's hoping it happens again.
