    The stuff on this is why you're fat is fucking disgusting, but at least this isn't stuff anybody is eating on a regular basis... right... right? Please tell me the '' meals''( if we can call them that) posted on that site were done only for shock value.. please

    As for more.. regular food that is plain disgusting AND UNHEALTHY try... anything by KFC or Taco Bell. Even McDonald is healthy in comparaison.

    some of them are clearly jokes or shock value, but others appear to be real store-bought items, like that pizza cone monstrosity

    Poutine is delicious. Saying this as an American citizen. I know it's not good for me, but every trip I make to Canada I make sure I get some poutine.

    Also, regarding chicken and waffles:

    I went with some friends to try it once. I left there feeling like I had a concrete block in my stomach (some of the heaviest food I've eaten) but I'll be damned if I wasn't surprised at how well chicken and waffles combo'd together.

    ololol generalizing aside, that shitty "cheese" is nasty. In fact I'm gonna go get some real cheese right now.

    Yeah I remember expressing a very obvious shudder when I went to a Subway in Vegas and they didn't have the cheeses I'm used to. It was a choice between American *shudder*, Monterey Jack (meh), and Provolone.

    I actually ate one just like that. It's called the T-Rex poutine.

    Poutine is freaking awesome. One of the restaurants in my hometown used to make it with cheese, dressing, ground beef, mushrooms, onions and gravy. We called it a heart attack, because after you finished you felt pretty close to one. Delicious!

    On skinned fried chicken, how large are chicken intestines? If they're big enough, you could conceivably wrap the various pieces. A fried chicken sausage, if you will.

    That looks just delicious.

    Hey, I have some of that at home.* The directions on the can are amazing.
    "Open can at both ends. Use a spoon to gently push bread out of can. Cut to desired thickness."

    I don't need directions on how to cut bread, thank you.

    *Morbid curiosity, I swear. If we ever get to the state where that thing starts looking like a viable food product, it'll go great with my can of novelty Monty Python Spam.

    I guess English people just like buttered bread. I mean, in England you would just always put some margarine on a sandwich if you made one unless it was really fancy.
    In the US, if you butter the bread you usually don't put anything else on. Thus the bewilderment.

    Thats because in the USA you can't really get a proper sliced loaf to use in a UK Style sandwich. Unlike in the USA where most sandwiches come on rolls, in the UK they come on sliced bread. Sliced bread goes much better with butter, and we just like sandwhiches more. Honey sandwiches, Cheese sandwiches, Jam sandwhich, PB+J. You 'butter' (almost always margerine) the bread first, but not with a crazy amount or anything.

    o_O Almost every sandwich I've ever bought has had two slices of bread. You buy loaves of bread to make sandwiches in the US. The iconic PB&J sandwich is always depicted as two slices of bread with PB&J in between.

    The jam and honey sandwiches sound like a regular piece of bread with honey or jam, but I guess with an extra slice slapped on top? Lightly buttering such a thing is quite reasonable.

    Buttering a PB&J or cheese sandwich is depraved.

    I saw an ad once for gel-filled Eggo waffles. I'm not sure what the gel was - strawberry goo, syrup, frosting? - but the idea is revolting. I imagine it's like eating a jelly donut or pastry but you pour maple syrup on top, too.



    Apparently they are called "Waff-FULLS". Bleh

    I'm starting to think that stuffing and filling foods with other foods is the essence of fatness.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzNUa9nGEBk

    It's made of people!! Eggo Waf-fulls is PEOPLE!!

    Another small time offender to me are those Hungryman TV dinners from Swanson. Some are okay, like the Buffalo chicken strips, but others are NOT even close to being 'food.' I'm looking at you, Sports Pack Nacho Cheese and Chicken Strips. Fried chicken and nachos are an unholy union.

    I've had one. It was very tasty, and much simpler than you'd think. Basically a peanut/caramel pie with a chocolate topping, if memory serves.

    The dorm cafeteria I eat at has something called the "Phatty Melt". Effectively, as far as I can remember, it's a burger+philly cheese steak, using two grilled cheese sandwiches as buns, with whatever grilled/sauteed veggies (mushrooms, peppers, etc.) you want.

    They now have t-shirts advertising it...

    That sounds delicious, though unwieldy.

    Also, people from England: your food is disgusting, and soon even you will realize that and finally switch over to an entirely curry-based national cuisine. French fry sandwich? Want some more starch with your starch? What the fuck is wrong with you?

    Then you at least have cheese and meat to contribute flavor. That sounds fine. When your only ingredients come from the potato/bread/rice group then you're doing it wrong.

    Seriously, just finish the switch to Indian and realize you've done yourself a huge favor.

    Poutine is generally disgusting. I'll make it at home once and a while with home made fries, home made gravy, and some decent cheese, but when I visit Quebec and the people I know in Montreal try and trick me into eating it, I know better.

    Not at all bad for you -- actually, it's really good for you -- but does kimchi count? I eat so much of that shit that even my Korean friends think I'm insane.

    In the UK a lot of take away restaurants have started selling variants of 'The Munch Box'. It's basically a 7 or 9inch pizza box filled with fries, chicken pakora, mushroom pakora, vegetable pakora, donner kebab meat, cheese, garlic mayonaise and whatever else they feel like throwing in.
