Inspired by this article on Snopes, what is the most unhealthy concoction you like to eat.
With me, it’s probably the bacon egg burger. A hamburger topped with bacon, a fried egg, ketchup, pickles and fried onions.
In college, my friends and I consumed mass quantities of King Dons covered with whipped cream from a can.
Scotch eggs. :eek:
We used to say that two Scotch eggs and a cigarette was an “Instant Heart Attack.”
Potatoes with fixins. The ungodly combinations of melted cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, butter PLUS either baked, mashed and fried potatoes with ingeniously added toppings like mushroom gravy, fried onions and chili I have devoured in my lifetime could easily make a ravenous boar stop and ask “Got something lighter… like a tub of Crisco?”
The toughest part of my current diet has been giving up damn near ALL dairy, potatoes and meat in favor of vegetables, fruits and more exercise.
McDonald’s Strawberry Shake
Fried pork rinds.
Nutritionally worthless. Loaded with saturated fat. Absolutely delicious.
I don’t diet, but it’s the booze that does for my waistline.
[PS Silenus, even my wife enjoyed the Mondavi Pinot Noir, so it must be okay. The colour is noticeably paler than a typical red wine. This is reflected in the smoother taste.]
Probably donuts.

Not meaning to monopolise this thread, but since we’re going out for tea at the Peninsula Hotel today, I’m already salivating at the prospect of a cream tea, i.e. scones with styrawberry jam and clotted cream. (Actually, I like everything mentioned so far - even the stuff I haven’t tried yet!)
Ro-tel cheese dip.
I don’t know if they have these in other places, but in New Brunswick, New Jersey, they have fat sandwiches. Fat sandwiches are sold at the grease trucks near Rutgers University. My favorties are the “fat bitch”, “fat moon”, and “fat cat”. Basically each “fat” sandwich is a combination of meats and other fast food products. A typical sandwich might include chinken fingers, cheesesteak, cheese, bacon, and fries, all on a hoagie roll. You can create your own mix of things also. If you can eat 3 of them in one sitting, you get to name the sandwich and post your picture on the truck.
Bastard.
One of the things i really miss, living in the US, is afternoon tea with scones, jam and cream. I introduced my Amierican SO to this little delicacy on a trip home to Australia a year ago, and she was instantly hooked.
Here in Oklahoma, there is a chain called Ron’s Hamburgers and Chili. They make a divine 1/3lb cheeseburger that has bacon bits in it, fried onions on top and a big old slice of ham sandwiched between 2 slices of cheese.
We need a drooling smiley.
I just had low-fat vegetable soup and low-salt spinach for dinner. Then I read this thread.
I’m hereby UNSUBSCRIBING, you unfeeling fucks.
And I say this as a man on a diet: FUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuUUUUCK Yoooooouuuuuuuuu, brickbacon. Fuck you like a Fat Bitch stroking a Fat Cat under a Fat Moon!
Mickey D’s sausage egg McMuffins with a hash brown.
Tater tots.
Pork rinds.
Pizza.

Regular chips with an ungodly amount of french onion dip.
Sweets.
is now sad
Oh, Jeez. Where to start?
Well, for our semi-Superbowl trashy party (“semi” as we weren’t really watching) we made a scary meatloaf-- hard-boiled eggs in the middle, and then wrapped in bacon. We were calling it “man-loaf” until we came up with a yet sicker idea of shaping the thing in a bundt-pan, whereupon it was christened “man-cake.”
Someone on the boards described the concept of “poutaine” the other day. I am intrigued.
Our local greasy spoon makes a “Hawk’s nest”: Take 2 good-sized fresh potatoes and grate them course. Fry the shreds on a grill with really nasty grill-lube to make hashbrowns with plenty of onions. Fill a 12" plate 1-1/2" thick with the result. Scramble 4 eggs with a heapin’ handful or two of crumbled bulk sausage of questionable pedigree. Dump eggs/sausage onto hashbrowns. Pour 2 cups of sausage-ey white gravy over the whole thing. Wheel it out to the table. Awesome.
One plate can feed a Vietnamese village for a week. Or me for about 4 hours, 3 of which will be spent snoozing. I can feel my belly expanding and my heart groaning as I power through this thing. Oh yeah, it costs US$5.50. I can hardly wait for Saturday.
Diet, my ass.
p.s. Never eat in a restaurant unless both the cook & the owner are fat. And NEVER eat in one owned by a corporation.
Told ya! 
Perhaps it’s ice cream, for me. I love ice cream. If that’s wrong, I don’t want to be right.
bamf
Oooh, yes, that is one fine burger. Makes me proud to be an Okie.
French onion dip.
Bacon.
