In related news, KFC announce the “Behemoth” – 5 chicken breasts between 7 layers of cheese served between two loaves of bread and deep fried. Now that is innovation!

Sauce, you say?

The one picture to me is as good as example of the failure of our society as anything else.

size being the only consideration, not a single vegetable in sight, plastic cheese, probably a week’s energy needs for a normal person.

and the link to the item? it’s in a directory called /menu-nutrition/. awesome

Reminds me of the good ol’ days when we’d swallow a full-grown mastodon and then hang out in the cave for a month or two digesting and maybe doing a little drawing … we didn’t have good sauce back then, actually I don’t remember bacon, either. Nobody ever could remember to pick up the buns either …

I’m more and more proud of going pescetarian…

Offtopic:

this feed in google reader is bad: this is what i see

Nutrition trends for 2011. Trying to best KFC ’s Double Down, Burger King adds the Quad Stacker to the menu — quadruple-stacked layers of beef and cheese — topped with bacon and “sauce”. Super size me?

that is, in reader i can see < p > < strong > Nutrition trends for 2011. </ strong > ...

@gaddo Same here.

@Trent:

Here is the healthy version….

This one has Lettuce, tomato and (crispy) onion. Oh and 5 Steak House XT patties!

I’m trying to imagine some kind of cross-over between the fast food industry, and the shaving-razor industry.

NEW ! BK Triple-Bladed Razor Stack-O!

That Quad Stacker has been there way before the Double Down hit the market. I should know; I’ve suffered more than one.

I second that request to fix your RSS feed. For the past three posts it’s been having issues with HTML .

Looks. Sooooo. Tasty.

Here’s what sad that people don’t realize…

PFC Double Down: Calories=540, Cholesterol= 145, Sodium=1380

Zaxby’s House Zalad: Calories=760, Cholesterol=135, Sodium=1820

Sometimes the “bad” choice is better than the “good” choice.

The people who designed this bigger have followed some of the principles in Getting Real.

Yep. Google reader feed is showing HTML .

CARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNE

(It means “meat” ni spanish, but I love the “R” fonetic when I say it) :)

P.S. Happy new year!!!

the man vs. food edition of the Quad Stacker

Increasing meat-to-bread ratio. It’s a good thing!

How revolting. And a blatant disregard for life. Greed. Gluttony. Everything that’s wrong with the world.

Hey, it seems that your RSS feed is broken: http://feeds.feedburner.com/37signals/beMH. I get

Yuk

I know it seems like a ridiculously fattening item but the KFC Double Down is actually no worse than a lot of fast food chicken sandwiches.

KFC Double Down: 540 cal, 32g fat BK Tender Crisp Sandwich: 800 cal, 46g fat BK Original Chicken Sandwich: 630 cal, 39g fat McD Crispy Chicken Club Sandwich: 630 cal, 28g fat

Looks delicious. Can’t wait to try it.

@Mark – one might actually be better off eating the razors…

There’s always Protein Style… http://www.google.com/images?q=protein+style

I hope 2011 sees the start of people taking more care in what they eat. The warning signs are there people – food is becoming a big killer. Combine that with a new laziness thanks to technology (iPhones, iPads etc) and we are all living very dangerously.

and look how the burgers are made…http://eatthis.menshealth.com/slideshow/whats-really-your-food

I look forward to this post scrolling off the front page. I’m sick of seeing this burger.
