Synopsis[]
Joe Saunders (Solar Opposites, The Bread Cast) joins the 'boys to discuss baby food, Star Wars, and KFC Double Downs before tackling bread in the elimination bracket of Munch Madness 2023: The Tournament of Chompions: BOWL!
Nick's intro[]
This week on Doughboys Double — the Tournament's penultimate battle as baked goods serve as bowl surrogates in Fat Chance Kitchen Presents: Munch Madness 2023: The Tournament of Chompions: BOWL: Bread Dead Redemption - CAVA vs. Pressed vs. KFC.
Let's a-go!
BOWL: Fat Chance Kitchen: Rules 📜[]
One of the rules of BOWL is "when it comes to bread, more will be said." So for Fat Chance Kitchen, the Doughboys focus solely on bread items from the restaurants.
Also, Evan Susser calls in and uses his Sub-stitution rule to add sweetgreen back into the competition; he says Mitch demanded this.
BOWL: Fat Chance Kitchen 🥖[]
Bread Dead Redemption is a round where the two losers in the semi-finals (CAVA, who lost to Sweetfin; and Pressed, who lost to Chipotle) face off against the winner of the Toilet Bowl (KFC). sweetgreen is added as well because Evan (and Mitch) wanted to (it had lost to CAVA).
Instead of evaluating their bowls, however, each restaurant gets one bread item to evaluate.

BOWL: Fat Chance Kitchen winner 🥖[]
First up, the Doughboys eliminate Pressed immediately, because they don't really have any bread items on their menu.
They also eliminate KFC before the final decision, as they weren't particularly impressed by the biscuit and because KFC is not particularly known as a place for bowls.
So the final Bread Dead Redemption decision came between CAVA and sweetgreen (an actual rematch from an earlier round).
| guest / host | winner |
|---|---|
| Nick Wiger | sweetgreen |
| Mike Mitchell | sweetgreen |
| Joe Saunders | sweetgreen |
So even though CAVA beat sweetgreen in the first round, sweetgreen advances! It will join the Finale!
Is Christmas A Cookie Holiday? 🎄🍪[]

| Joe Saunders | yes, definitely. see this episode. |
Snack or Wack[]
In Snack or Wack, the Doughboys taste a snack item and rate it either 'snack' or 'wack.'
KFC Double Down Sandwich
The Doughboys discuss KFC's Double Down Sandwich (and the Spicy version). They don't really 'snack or wack' it, but everyone seemed to like it a lot. Nick tried it without the bacon.
They also decide that Brendan Fraser in The Whale would love it.

Star Wars $15 Meme[]
Joe had previously done an episode (back in 2018) in which they had an auction of Star Wars things, so Nick has them look at a recent meme where you get $15 dollars and have to put together a team of Star Wars characters.
