Discuss “SAY WHAT?”

Burger King debuted its ?Enormous Omelet Sandwich? last week, sending left arms everywhere into an unpleasant tingling with 750,000 sold. Just as the fast food industry seemed to be showing more concern for its victims, it has taken an obese step backwards.

This colossus of one sausage patty, two eggs, two cheese slices, and three strips of bacon contains 730 calories, 47 grams of fat, and 415 milligrams of cholesterol. That?s 330 more milligrams of cholesterol than a Whopper! As Morgan Spurlock, director of the anti-fast-food documentary Super Size Me, has suggested, the Enormous Omelet Sandwich ?should come with a $5-off coupon for your first angioplasty.? Sadly, Burger King?s abomination is not unique.

For those who like to clog their arteries...
