  • Welcome to “uber-Burger”- a place inhabited by mountains of fatty beef piled on lard-laced buns and topped with not-so-usual condiments such as potato chips and hot dogs…yes, you read me right – topped with hot dogs. Carl’s Jr. tested this shameful splurge over the summer, calling it “the ultimate picnic burger.”
  • "When I read this article It angers me that so many American's can't see what's happening here. People don't take into account that obesity can cause heart disease, and diabetes. It seems to me that the Fast Food Industry has preyed on "convenience" for their customers of course, however at the same time they are filling consumers hearts with fat, grease, and future medical problems they aren't aware of or tend to ignore. Nutrition is certainly not part of the Fast Food Industries Menu. And not only that but one of the worst things a Parent can do for their child is buy them soda, or some of these fast food items listed in this article. What ever happened to good old fashioned Home cooked meals?? Parents can't say things like "Oh well the wife had to go to work to help out with the bills".. or "The wife wanted a career" etc.. and expect that to be the excuse of how they are too tired to cook after a long hard days work. That's what communication in relationships is all about is working together and it's BOTH parents responsibility to make sure their children are getting the nutrition they need. However, in America I fear consumers will continue to ignore these facts and continue to feed all the grease and fat to their families and still have the courage to stand up and say... "I take good care of my family".. This is a great article and it's one that more American's need to be aware of and take account of what's going into their bodies and their families bodies."
