Each photo is worse than the other! I wouldn't eat any of these things. What on earth makes people say "hey I want to eat that"??? And who comes with these dishes? Amazing what we are capable of eating.

I've never been to a fast food chain -- people don't even believe me -- how is it possible -- but I love ground beef and all sorts of meat - I'll have a french fry once or twice a year -- I'm so naive when it comes to "fast food"! What's wrong with me?

GROSS!

I look at these meals and then to the right on my computer screen is and ad "Testosterone Trick" and I think humahuma I will need those calories.

Thanks for the info, but I'm a vegan

Friday January 18, 2013, 5:20 pm
I don't eat at these or any other fast food places.

Friday January 18, 2013, 6:10 pm
Some of those look good, but at that count, I wouldn't, we don't have any of those places in Canada, except Ihop which I've only seen it in Niagara falls, and Chili's, I haven't been though

OMG - All you need is one big bite of the burger and fries and you'd fill your caloric intake for the day

Friday January 18, 2013, 7:56 pm
Good grief! Thanks Cal for the link to the slide show and info on each.

Nice feast of fear mongering but real short on truth. The one thing that the article fails to mention is that in and of them selves there is absolutely nothing unhealthy or dangerous in any of these meals or Grand Ma's chocolate Cake with fudge frosting or home made ice cream-the real stuff or whole roast pig. The health problems and dangers arise from making these your diet and not living a healthy life style all the rest of the time. For one thing absolutely none of these menu items would be on the menu if they did not sell enough to justify the overhead and prep cost. Contrary to popular belief among the food police chain restaurants and fast food joints do not exist to destroy the nations health they exist to make a profit. And that profit does not exist unless a sufficient number of people MAKE THE PERSONAL DECISION to purchase and eat their menu items. Perhaps going from food police to food Gestapo might help but you have to be stupid to think it would. Those who justify these menu items through their Choice to purchase them are far more likely to simply make the same foods for themselves at home. You might want to consider the Healthiness or what is consumed on couches to watch sports on TV or at the game, ever hear or tailgating or the family BBQ. You are not generally going to find great healthy eating or portion control at any of afore mentioned and if you go after those you might want to check up on your "Tarred and Feathered" coverage in your insurance policy.
The point is these foods are in and of themselves not unhealthy, the frequency of their consumption and all the other life style choices of those who eat them are the actual source of the danger to health.
