Foodporn

Not nearly as fun as the AVN awards. The newest inductee is Hardee's "monster thickburger," a thing consisting of two 1/3 pound burgers, three slices of cheese, and four strips of bacon sandwiched between buttered and liberally mayonaissed buns. It contains a mere 1200 calories, over a hundred grams of fat, and enough sodium to send an elephant into shock.

By pointing this out, I hope I'm not going to be accused of being a puritan about food. I'm quite strongly libertarian in fact, and I believe in a citizen's absolute right to eat him or herself to death. What I object to, however, is the cost of the coronary procedures of the human-cows who consume these things being reflected in my medical bills.

IRONY UPDATE: As soon as I post about the sandwich of death (see above), Adsense starts displaying a banner ad for the tickets to Green Bay Packers games.
