    Maybe it's because I'm heavily dosed up on steroids (have a nice little pneumonia going on) but some of that stuff looks pretty good to me at the moment!!!

    Haha

    I can understand why Americans are so big cos they eat alot of junk food but when you go into any food place there's calories by the side of the menu so they can't even say they don't know how bad it is for them. Was in hard rock cafe and deliberately chose something low in calories cos I could see what they were.

    Went to this place where they have a hotdog eating competition and the guy who's won the last two years ate 69 in 2007 and took his foot off the gas this year and only ate 66! They're 297kcal's each so he ate around 18,000kcal's in one go

    While I like my home made junk, the pics are making me feel sick
    Sweet and meat don't go together for me. In America the bread always has corn syrup in it. In fact almost everything you get has an artificial sugar/sweetner in it there. Bit too obsessed with food...

    Re: World's unhealthiest junk food?


    Eat what? Poutine is the unofficial dish of Canada and, short of stuffing raw lard into your gullet, perhaps the most unhealthy food on planet earth. It’s “a dish consisting of French fries topped with fresh cheese curds and covered with hot gravy (usually brown gravy) and sometimes other additional ingredients.”

    Well that doesn’t sound so bad.

    It is when you consider that the “other additional ingredients” to which they refer typically include bacon, butter, more cheese, fried fois gras, not fried fois gras, and just about anything dairy, meat and artery-blocking. God, I can’t wait! For a disturbingly thorough look at all things poutine, check out MontrealPoutine.com.
    Yum.

    Can't beat the Scots with deep fried salad though..

    Re: World's unhealthiest junk food?

    I wouldn't mind having a Wagyu burger, topped with some pan fried foie gras; or even better, foie gras butter on top of the sizzling meat; it is incredible!
