2. Yeah, it's all shit.
You'll note how much of that garbage is from a chain. Meaning, LOTS of folks are likely to be eating that crap.

4. All of those look so delicious
I guess part of the fun in eating it it knowing how bad it is for you.

But some of those things look damn good.

6. How dare anyone defame the name of Uno's Pizza!
It probably serves four anyway.

8. damn them for including uno's pizza
although i would argue that the chicago is not redundant. chicago style means something specific, and uno's does sell that other, sad sort of pizza.
honestly, i don't eat it very often these days, i would leave out the meat, and really, i think the only people who think of those as personal pizzas are already at least a person and a half.

19. I know. The pancakes just sound good. Caramel banana pecan cream. Are you kidding me?
Yum.

Everything else ... I agree. Bleah bleah bleah bleah bleah. x(

I cannot BELIEVE the high caloric content of most of that stuff. It's like an entire day's worth of calories in one item.

16. I've eaten some pretty hideous stuff before...
still, that stuff is all brutal.
The Carl's Jr. BIG ASS BURGER is especially ruthless.

18. I'm proud to say that I've only had 2 of the meals on that list
1) The Pepperidge Farm chicken pot pie- I'm guilty of consuming far too many frozen dinners; it's tasty, though!

and

2) The Chipotle burrito (although it's been several years...)

(Which isn't to say I wouldn't *want* to try most of the things on that list, horrible as they would be for me...)

22. I had that burrito last night
Edited on Mon Aug-25-08 12:50 AM by FKA MNChimpH8R
Urp.

Tasted good, but afterwards I felt like someone had inflated a basketball in my belly.

Where does all the freaking sodium come from in a goddam sub sandwich?

23. At least we are not responsible for Monkey Gland Sauce
http://kitschnzinc.blogspot.com/2004/06/monkey-gland-sauce.html

Sauce made from actual monkey glands would probably be more appealing.
