Aren't you glad that fast food joints are now including the calorie count on their menus?

[Anonymous]

I don't know about you, but whenever I order the ten patty burger with ten slices of cheese, calories aren't really on my mind.

Yes, and I also enjoy a side of tartar with extra guilt.

No, I'd rather be kept in the dark like a mushroom.

Calories are what they put in food to make it taste better.

Yes, I am. I was raised Catholic in a Jewish town, so I'm mithridatized against guilt and shame, but I fail to see how being more informed is a BAD thing.

And frankly, if you ever find yourself in a position where you're chronically short on calories, you'll be damn grateful to be able to max them out. And you'll never be able to take those wdo talk about "junk food" seriously again, but that's another issue.

" I fail to see how".. this post was intended to just be a sarcastic joke.

I watch my calories as I’m downing food & dam that shit taste good. On the flip side I love how people order extra this, extra that & their plate is full & they order a fucking Diet Coke, are you kidding me.

[Asker]

I just posted that to another guy on here. lol
That diet Coke just evens it all out.

There was a hilarious Jack in the Box commercial. This is the best commercial ever. I hope the link works.

Absofuckinglutely & I say lose the bun & lose the Diet Coke & life is good. You know what else grinds my gears? I love when you go out to eat & people order from the menu & they tell the waitress or waiter to tell the chef not to put this on it or not to put that on it & more. People are insane.

I mean, I know it'll be a cheat day, but I at least want to know if I should order a side of nuggets with my BK Triple Stacker or not... (I'm not even joking, LOL!)

[Asker]

You can eat as many Triple Stackers as you want, just as long as you balance it out with a diet Coke.

Who cares about the calories what about the heart attack and stroke causing amonts of sodium.

[Asker]

No one who eats these hamburgers care about any of that. It's about as dumb as putting a warning label on a pack of cigarettes.

[LiamSawyer]

They will care when that heart attack or stroke happens.

[Asker]

Yes, but if they're in line ordering it, they most likely haven't had either of those, yet.

[LiamSawyer]

Aside from the shown killer monstrosities even a regular fast food burger with cheese, fries and a soda has more sodium then a person's daily limit.

[Asker]

You must be the life of the party.

[worldscolide]

Yeah actually.. What they have done is why I went from eating fast food a few times a week to once a month if that.

[Asker]

You couldn't have just did a quick Google search and found out that junk food is loaded with calories?

[worldscolide]

I honestly didn't think to search. And them adding calories to the menus, at least where I'm from predates google

[Asker]

OK, it's a relatively new thing where I live. It frustrates me, because they hide the price of the individual sandwich, but but the combo price in plain view. And now the calorie count is in large font and in plain view. But it doesn't really matter much, because fast food is getting too expensive for me.

I went through a KFC drive-thru, and the guy said: " Would you like to try the blah blah blah for $24.00?"
I thought for a moment I was at the Red Lobster. lol

[worldscolide]

Yeah it's getting kinda crazy lately.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

HOLY FISH PASTE. I think you Twippin Twippin, that’s too many Pattie’s. Like, how do you eat that and not recreate Hiroshima in your bathroom?

[Asker]

I don't eat that, because with this crazy inflation, that burger probably costs as much as a Kirby vacuum.

[Bklynbadboy12]

No that's the worst idea ever

[Asker]

I agree. If I was counting calories I'd not be there in the first place.

[xJayleenx]

That is good
