Healthy Living
I had found a comical article recently that kind of shows you what fast foods are the most popular and also on how they relate to bad health. So I bring you 2007’s worst Foods for your health. Suprisingly a lot of these were also the most popular fast food items. Sit back, and grab you a glass of fresh juice… Here We Go!!
Coming in at # 10 
Denny’s Extreme Grand Slam Breakfast - with count them 3 strips of bacon and if that wasn’t enough grease for you, 3 sausage links, come on cholesterol 2 eggs. hash browns, and topping it off with 3 pancakes. Of course you can offset some of that with a nice fresh glass of juice (kidding).
Listed at # 9 
Wendy’s Baconator which is a health Terminator, Arnold would be proud! Six strips of bacon, because 5 is not enough, packed atop a mountain of a 1/2 pound of beef, smothered with 2 slices of processed American cheese, slathered with mayo and ketchup. I am gaining weight just thinking about it.
Number 8 on the list: 
Pizza Hut’s P’Zone, Comes in 3 different variations including the Classic P’Zone for a classical death, the Meaty Pzone for a artery clogging show stopper and the Pepperoni Pzone, all loaded with over 1 pound of Mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and a side of Marinara Sauce.
#7 is all of our favorite: 
Starbucks Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino Blended Creme - Chocolate chips and milk blended with ice topping, whip cream and Chocolate syrup topping. I have to admit this sounds yummylicious, but we have to think of our health right? Huh?
Making the list at #6: 
KFC’s Chicken & Biscuit Bowl - starting with a Big Scoop of buttery mash potatoes, layered with the healthiest ingredient of this heart attack delight, sweet kernel corn and loaded with bite sized pieces of fried chicken, topped with peppery cream gravy and if that wasn’t enough, sprinkled with a 3 cheese blend and a biscuit to sop it all up with.
# 5 on our Health Stravaganza: 
Hardee’s Country Breakfast Burrito - I have my resting spot in the country already picked out. Made from, count them 2 omelets, 5 hashrounds (WTF is a hashround?)..Cheddar cheese and sausage gravy all wrapped up in a whole wheat tortilla (minus the whole wheat). How is that for a whopping 920 calories, 23 grams of saturated fat, and 2000 milligrams of salt. Good ole Hardee’s famous for their 1110 calorie Southwest Chicken Salad.
No. 4 on or list: 
Denny’s Meat Lover Scramble - which consists of 2 eggs scrambled with chopped bacon, diced ham and crumbled sausage not including the apple that was in his mouth. Topped with Cheddar Cheese, served with 2 strips of bacon, 2 sausage links, hash browns and 3 pancakes. (1 whole pig included in every bite)
Winding it down to # 3: 
El Monterey XX Large Chimichanga - Savory Beef, refried beans, and caliente! Mexican Spices in a oven baked flour tortilla, and then fried for a whopping 10 oz gut buster to make you yell Whoohooo while your in the bathroom. 55 grams of fat, 35 mg of cholesterol, 1,100 mg of salt, with Aluminum Sulfate, Monocalcium Phosphate, Sodium Metabisulfite, Microcrystalline Cellulose, and Dicalcium Sulphate. Is this a Burrito or a Science project?
2nd on the List : 
Pizza Hut’s Double Deep Pizza - Double the toppings and 50% more Cheese, Whopeee!! With a gut busting 580 calories with 330 of that being from fat per slice. adding to the healthy goodness is 100 mg of cholesterol, a whopping 1990 mg of salt, and 2 grams of fiber to help it come out. Ahhhh!
And the winner of our Worst foods of 2007 list is……..Drum Roll Please!! 
Carl’s Jr. Western Bacon Six Dollar Burger - 1060 calories with half of that being from fat, 135 mg of cholesterol, winning the highest salt content on our list at 2180 mg, A whopping 1 pound of goodness.
