Well, there’s a place not too far from me that serves a 1 pound burger with cheese, gravy, mayo, bacon, and a fried egg on top, plus poutine and a slab of deep fried chocolate chip cookie dough for dessert.

I’ve always wanted to try it. There’s a pub nearby that does onion, cheddar, bacon, sour cream and chili fries, but that’s not really advanced-level unhealthy. They do nice deep fried mars bars, though.

Not quite the same, but I’ve had chocolate-covered cheesecake. It’s yummy.

Well, day-ummmmm! So, do we open this diner next to a cardiac care unit for convience sake? 😃

Out of all the things I have read so far, deep fried mac and cheese on a stick intrigues me most. Then again, I am rightly fascinated by food-on-a-stick. I mean, it’s all right there on a stick with no clean up afterwards. How much better could it get?

Some people do turduckins during the Holidays. That is a turkey stuffed with a duck and a bunch of other stuff.

I propose the Goosenhoggin. You take a goose, the greasiest meat on the planet, stuff it with bacon wrapped cheddar cudes and deep fry it. When it comes out, take Cheese Wiz and write “Happy Thanksgiving/Merry Christmas” on it and use a fried egg to drape over its eye to be more festive and then decorate the white of the egg with holiday colored candy.

I’m reminded of a classic Sunday _Peanuts_ strip: We see Linus in the kitchen squirting something into a bowl. Next panel he’s seated in front of the TV munching something out of the bowl. Lucy comes along and asks, “What are you eating?” Linus replies, “Sugar lumps with honey.” Lucy looks appalled, claps her hands to her mouth and runs off. Linus, barely noticing, continues munching, then calls after her, “They’re good with cinnamon, too!”

I have had fried cheesecake before… it was very, very good.

In the spirit of adding to the thread (i have made and eaten this) apple slices, fried in butter and sugar.

There’s a place near me that was voted 2nd Best Place to Pig Out by the Travel Channel. They offer a burger with 5 lbs of meat, 20 slices of cheese, and 12 slices of bacon. And 5 lbs of fries. Fifty bucks. Or free, if you finish it in an hour.

I don’t have to make one up either – I’ve eaten it, or rather shared it with my somewhat health-conscious gentleman friend. Ladies and gentleman of the SDMB, I give you **The Deep-Fried Twinkie, aka “The Wrongest Dessert Ever”!** You can find a description of it [here, at the bottom of the page.](http://www.harrisgrill.com/menu.aspx) It’s served with two balls of ice cream positioned at the top of the Twinkie on either side of it so they look like, well, balls. It’s quite good actually – it tastes a bit like a Krispy Kreme doughnut. The rest of the food at this restaurant is quite good, too. In fact, I’ll be taking friends there in May. **Shalmanese** , I discovered this place after your visit, but if you ever come back here, I’ll take you there.

I figure if a deep-fried Twinkie doesn’t count as unhealthy, I don’t know what does.
