Triple bypass on a bun
New Burger King breakfast offering outdoes Whopper - Mar. 28, 2005
I give you the "Enormous Omelet Sandwich". I never thought that BK could surpass that thing they had a couple years ago that had bacon and extra cheddar cheese and extra meat, but they might have done it with this one: a sausage patty, three strips of bacon, two eggs, and two slices of American cheese. Plus the bun, which isn't exactly a diet staple itself.

Good God. That should come with its own life insurance policy.

According to the picture, that must be one huge sausage patty. It looks like three could fit in there.

Ooh! Ooh! Am I first?
"We take eighteen ounces of sizzling ground beef, and soak it in rich, creamery butter, then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg.
We call it the Good Morning Burger."

Still, can it be much worse than your everyday IHOP Breakfast Sampler? No way to know since IHOP provides no nutrition information on their site--none I can find anyway.
Yet I must confess a weakness for their Swedish pancakes.

Take that, Hardee's!

Exactly.
Just as Fox News made it okay to dispense with objectivity and reasoned political discourse with regard to news coverage, Hardee's made it okay to dispense with common sense (owing in part, I believe, to a male preoccupation with size) with regard to what one eats. Now everyone else has to up the ante or lose business.

This reminds me of the Cajun food craze of the 70s. After a couple of years our family was being served food that, let alone sacrificing the subtlety of blended seasonings to the harsh dominance of cayenne pepper, you couldn't even eat.
And isn't anyone going to praise my Simpsons reference? It seemed so relevant.
