Subscribe to RSSThis time the double bypass was blamed.
That’s a Double Bypass from the Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas, where a woman -- eating a double-patty beef burger mashed between two lard-covered buns -- suffered an apparent heart attack. She was unconscious as she was rushed to the hospital Saturday night; she is expected to recover, KTNV.com reported.
To be fair, the burgers themselves may not be the culprit. The restaurant owner, Jon Basso, noted that the woman was also smoking and drinking a margarita.
"I would say the woman gave her body every single thing it could handle and it finally gave out," Basso told KVVU-TV Fox5.
This is the second time in three months that someone has collapsed while eating a burger at the Heart Attack Grill, where the motto is “Taste worth dying for.” Guests are described as patients in the restaurant’s stated quest against anorexia.
In February, a man in his 40s was eating a Triple Bypass when he began sweating and shaking.
Man stricken while eating Heart Attack Grill burger
"I actually felt horrible for the gentleman because the tourists were taking photos of him as if it were some type of stunt. Even with our own morbid sense of humor, we would never pull a stunt like that," Basso told Fox5. He said he heard the man had been hospitalized and getting better.
The restaurant doesn’t try to hide that it serves up fatty fare. A sign there reads, “Caution: This establishment is bad for your health.” Patrons who weigh more than 350 pounds eat free (and yes, there is a scale to catch the skinny minis angling for a free lunch.) The restaurant has explained that yo-yoing weight is unhealthy, so why not keep guests steadily obese?
The burgers range from the Single Bypass to the Quadruple Bypass, which has four half-pound patties and eight slices of American cheese. Add 20 slices of bacon (dripping in its own grease, of course) for $3.69. The quadruple has nearly 8,000 calories.
For good measure, the restaurant parks an ambulance out front.

Lol been there.....lots of greasy yumyum....
At least they will never be charged with false advertising!!
I don't blame the restaurant , but I would never eat a burger that size which only cost $3.69 cent.
Mystery meat, yuk.
More like pink slime :-) That's good eating.
I think it's $3.69 to add the bacon.
$3.69 is what it costs to ADD 20 slices of bacon to the burger, I love bacon...but damn, even I know better than to eat 20 slices on top of a big ole double cheese burger. That said noone is forceing these people to eat here, it's free will and actions have consequences.
Next time I'm in Vegas going to check this place out. I won't get one of those big burgers, 'cause I know I couldn't eat it unless I share with my wife.
Every tastes better with bacon or bacon fat. Yum!!
I think next time I go to Vegas I have to hit that place....I'd only have that burger once but I have to experiebce it at least once....since I don't smoke or drink and in pretty good health I think I could handle a triple by-pass, as I said one time only though
I wonder if this qualifies for lifetime eating for free and getting a picture plaque on the wall.
Also if at the team pep rallies do they pat each other on the back and shake hands like a NASA launch team after a successful mission.
That's insane, but I would love to try one of those if they have take out. Do fries come on the side?
Damn cool!
If we can't get the stupid to walk in front of speeding trains maybe we can get them out of the gene pool by cardiac arrest!
If a patron in some other restaurant had a heart attack, we wouldn't hear about it.
Just think about all those lucky Asian tourists with price tags hanging from their hats that got to take pictures next to the victims. Cherished memories, it's like getting to see a whale breach on a boat ride.
Yes, that burger appears tasty. And I've been on a diet for two-weeks; thus far, successfully so. Please don't show me anymore images like the above.
Satan, get thee behind me.
There are seven deadly sins. There is a reason that GLUTTANY is one of them.
thank god for confessionals then........now pass the condiments and an extra 20 minutes on the treadmill
I bet that this woman is one VERY appalling and gross looking woman...smoker,boozer AND a glutton.....I bet that she votes Republican,too ! 10 to 1 odds....anyone ? Buehler ? Buehler ?
What a heart-wrenching story
Liam, What part in describing the woman makes anyone think she's a Republican? Was it the color of her eyes, her height, her hair or skin color? Exactly what clue stood out for such a stupid assumption? She just as easily could be a democrat, an independent, a green party, a whig, etc. There was NOTHING in this article to express any of her political viewpoints. So tired of this nonsense.
very true. as a matter of fact, Republican women are beautiful. Watch FOX news, see Republican female leaders ??? I feel for people who eat like this and accept it. We all like indulgence from time to time but this has proven to be life threatening.
Amazing you can buy one burger and feed on it for a week at less then $4.00. when are they going to franchise out.
Scientific studies shown that after 20 min of a high fat food the coronary arteries constrict and lost flexibility if you have an atherosclerotic lesion (cholesterol/fat) it closures and then you have the heart attact, those changes in the arteries last 2 hours.
The owner must put a sign saying that you can die with that meal, simply to protect himself.
Did the author/reporter look into the possibility that both may have flown to Vegas - blood clots from air travel are not uncommon.
1POV; everyone knows Hitlers engineered republican hate experiment resulted in blond haired, blue eyed, 6 foot, super humans. Oh, wait - that describes many of my Swedish relatives - but, most of them are conservatives.
Why would you go to Vegas for a burger when Prime Rib there costs the same?
Disgusting. There are hungry mouths all over this planet, and this is the best we can come up with in this day and age? 2 pounds of toxic lard shoveled into the mouths of the already obese? Congratulations Heart Attack Grill, you are literally killing idiotic people, way to make a real difference in the world and in the lives of others.
Truth in advertising. Why would anyone eat one of those by themselves. That burger would feed at least 3 people.
Amen!
All this moaning and whining about poor starving Somalis or whatever, GET OVER IT!!! I'm fricking tired of all these goodygoodys pissing themselves over things they have ZERO control over
Surprised this place isn't forced to purchase health insurance for it's "patients"
Hey, they keep an ambulance on hand. Give 'em a break. They're not forcing customers in with a shotgun.
I am surprised you can read, oh wait, maybe you can't.
It's not the food bringing them in either. It's the nurses.
I wouldn't be surprised if "Big Jim" really has a little Jim either.
THIS is America, 2012..where 68.8% of the citizens are overweight, and do not exercise,nor is their sin of gluttony committed with healthy food........240,000,000 people self-abusing their bodies........
America,....which has but 5% of the World population, but which gluttonously consumes 25% of the entire Worlds annual output of oil......driving up the cost of oil for everyone else on earth !
America,....which has the highest percentage rate of people in jail,in the entire WORLD.....1 out of every 31 people ( counting men,women and children) is in jail,on Parole,OR on Probation !,.....24% of ALL imprisoned people in the WORLD, are Americans,in American jails.......what have we become ?
Well, liam, at least most of the other 67,000,000 aren't as consdescending and self-righteous about being thin as you come across as being.
As to your other issues, until very recently we were the only country in the world that was both very large in land area and very prosperous; now Brazil, China, and yes, to an extent even Russia, are beginning to challenge this and also all are using a huge amount of energy. As to incareration, while a whole lot of it is due to the wrong-headed and poorly conducted "War on Drugs", a whole lot of it is also due to the fact, that, unlike Western Europe, we don't see fifteen years as sufficient punishment for first-degree murder or a sentence served out on weekends as sufficiently punitive for offenses like armed robbery or arson.
Liam, your a douche. Stay away from Vegas. You can't handle Americans exercising thier freedoms to be as big and fat and useless as they want. Let natural selection occur. Let capitalism succeed by providing a service to those that seek it. Yes, America is full of fat people and poorer countries are jealous. What is a better problem to have, too much food or to little? I vote for 20 slices of bacon vs. famine. I'd rather see fat, video game playing, couch potatoes vs. sick, little, casualties of corrupt regimes. I'll bet you vote liberal too.
People--again, this is a once a year type of treat--it shouldn't be a regular dining experience. Go there any more often, and you're really asking for it.
And seriously--combined with smoking and a margarita? Ok, what was she expecting?
Actually the article said she was smoking and drinking a margarita.
This is just ridiculously disgusting.
I think it's awesome!
I saw a segment on the Travel Channel about this place. The program was called "Best Places to Pig Out". The guy who conceived of it and owns it is/was a registered dietitian. After attempting to get cardiac patients to eat heart-smart and failing he just gave up and went to the dark side. I kid you not. Twisted, sick, and funny.
I agree, this article makes me wanna go eat a salad!
I wonder if the people who calculated that burger at 8000 calories are the same people who gave advice to the guy who did Supersize Me- who honestly NEVER once met or exceeded the 5000 calories-a-day mark his medical team calculated he was consuming.
As for the heart attack label, you are in greater danger of heart failure from the FDA's guidelines on a 'healthy' diet than eating that burger.
It's very simple. If you treat your body like garbage, you'll pay for it.
He must have eaten the white-Hispanic Orca whale named "Iceberg"
WAKE UP AMERICA
"white-Hispanic"? Not too many of those off the coast of Russia, dude!
you can find hispanics off just about every coast now.
I've heard of gimmicks to get a business off the ground, but this is" INSANE & OBVIOUSLYDEADLY"! The fact that they have anambulance parked outside may seem like a "JOKE" to some, but really needs to open up most minds, I enjoy a
good juicy burger as much as the next guy/girl & am not the supermodel size either. However, I am NOT going to frequent an estsblishment w/a DEADLY menu & reputation. The "AMBULANCE" parked outside & the "NAME" speak loudly enough for themselves!!!
Wow Cyndilou, I think you have stumbled onto the key to happiness in this world...NOT going to places YOU don't want to go to.
Now, if only this world would stop telling me where I don't want to go.
Well said Steve! Nowadays it actually amazes me when people realize we still have a right to choose. I know the libtards are trying hard to eliminate our rights but until they do, keep on doing what makes you happy and tell the other guy to mind his/her own business!
fairly certain that its the bible thumping right thats trying to tell people what to do and when to do it.
1: dont get abortions because we dont like them
2: dont use condoms because we dont like them
3: dont teach evolution because we disagree with it
4: dont be gay because we dont agree
5: you must live by our moral values because we want you to
6: I can go on like this for hours. Need I continue..........
Don't forget that the conservative republicans are pushing for internet spying and the Supreme Court Conservatives voted for Strip-searching anyone that gets arrested... even if just for an illegal U-turn !
I hear that Steve. People telling us we shouldn't have guns, abortions and waht not just because it is there beliefs. Heck they will even call you names if you don't agree with them.
Then we have the gov. you can't protest here or there, no guns here, none of those mean black rifles and god forbid should someone want to smoke a doobey. But yet it is OK for someone to chug a fifth of vodka and smoke 4 packs of ciggs a day. Heck it's even ok for me to take 6 oxy/roxi, 6 morphine, 6 methadone and 3 xanax a day but if I take a hit/doobey I'll go to jail. Where is the sense in that. I could give up 7 different meds I take per day if they allowed just 1, heck I would even be able to sleep. But heck PhRMA would be loosing all that money. I don't even smoke, well except the couple times in a few years but what a relief it gave me. Been waiting like 2 years since this was passed in NJ and still nothing. One thing is clear: The health department isn't close to opening the first dispensary. Folks even bought/rented store space 6 plus months ago with the ok to open for business and still nothing. How long can some pay rent without an income
Heck even around 10 years ago or so it was illegal for a diner to sell eggs with a runny yoke do to some crazy notion it was worse for you.
Sorry for the rant
PS HA HA HA Commonsense, you and I were thinking somewhat alike. Peace
Yes, the bible thumpers 10 commandments can go on.....
7: Eat and eat and eat, as thou art gluttonous pigs !
8: Consume prodigious amounts of alcohol, thou maketh the Lord mighty proud as thou defile thy temple, the body which I have given thee.
9: Attagirl !, Sayeth the Lord, poison thy lungs by ingesting clouds of contaminants and Nicotine...Wayeth-togo" ! , you Swine.....
10: Taketh the Temple, the beautiful body which I hath given Thee, and filleth same with disgusting amounts of fatty foods, giveth no hungry persons on earth any food, Fatstuff ! Keepeth thy many rolls of blistered and disgusting,purple LARD growing, and growing, fertilize same with Big Macs, corn dogs and Twinkies galore .
11: For thou art another YUCKY and repulsive American slobbette, with stained garments, which strain at the Seams of your size 18 tents...GO NOW, and maketh thy Lord thy God proud,stand in front of mirrors and breaketh the glass by the appearance of thy presence.....waddle over,now...do not breaketh through thy floor !
amazing how a story about greasy burgers causing heart attacks leads to posts about politics and the Bible?!?!?!
REpublicans very well maybe a bunch of meatheads but come people this article is about burgers!!!!!
Go ahead and treat your body like a temple and miss out on life. I know I am only gonna live once so I am treating my body like an amusemet park, where the rides are always free. :P
forreal, ALL of the articles here end up that way. It's rather comical.
commonsensesam, Geez, God haters telling Bible thumpers what not to tell them, sounds like mega hypocrisy. How about if you shut your trap and no one will tell you anything.
all I see are far right and far left nuts all screaming at each other and telling each other what to do
Don't balme the restaurant for tjose people having heartattacks from eating there, they probably had pre-existing medical conditons before they ever walked in the door.
Gee.... I wonder what the odds are that someone who weighs over 350 lbs and is willing to eat an 8000 calorie, 200 gram saturated fat burger has pre-existing conditions !!! Pretty good don't you think. LMFAO !!
Seriously, you are not going to have a heart attack from a meal. A lifetime of bad choices, yes, but not one meal, no matter how fatty/calorie laden it is.
all true but that doesn't make a juicy (pardon the pun) headline. if you already have cholesterol problems, then you go eat a 3,000 + calorie burger with fries cooked in lard, you're just asking for it. oh and don't forget the smoking.
20 slices of bacon for $3.69!!!!!!!!!!! I'M IN!!
Has to be a misprint. It cost $3 per piece of bacon around here.
Maybe he butchers his own hogs., LOL
Love bacon, in Idaho there was a butcher out in the desert (South of Snake River and Mtn Home) that had the best bacon. Could eat a pound in one sitting.
Don't forget it's Vegas....everythng's cheap...food, booze and women....lol
and politicians!
You can get Harry Reid on your burger for 50 cents, more PORK!
Wow! Even this story went political in only 6 posts!
Yeah, but it was pretty funny.
I think is BYOB...... bring your own bacon. "You buy it.. we fry it !"
HadEnough, I think it started back in #4. Maybe someone can do a study or something and at the end of each month show which article went political in the shortest ammount of posts. Maybe something like a football pool with a payout. I'd be in for that. Heck, I'll even bring the burgers, if someone will bring the condom mints. nyuk nyuk nyuk.
To start or make an issue out of someones chice of eating habits takes away one freedom of choice. Several have dies from pllayiing sports, mountain climbing, wieght lifting and activities that are to help make one healthy as well. If a person chooses to eat a hamburger that has such a high fat content then it is their right to make such a choice under the freedom we all enjoy and the consequenses of actions, like anything else will be on that person fro his dissiosion to do so. I think it sounds delicious, i wouldnt be able to eat one in one sitting but i guess id have left overs for a couple days. definatly not an every day burger but then again if one chooses to eat it that often then let them. I know i would hate anyoe to regulate what and howmuch i should eat and close any store they think might now fall into their recommended dietary oppinios of health.
It's 8000 calories in one sitting. OMG
You shouldn't have freedom of choice for misspelling so many words
How poor the nation that can only afford to spell a word one way.
Yes, we all have the "freedom to choose". I agree with that statement. No where in the article does it say that the restaurant is in danger of being shut down due to the health risks. They make those very clear in their ads. When you "choose" to eat at this restaurant you are aware of the risks. Just as people know when they weigh 350 lbs, there are risks. However, what disturbs me about your post is the number of spelling errors. It is very difficult to read. If you are going to post comments online and want people to be able to read them and respect you, you might want to do a spell check before hitting "Post comment". Any worthwhile opinions you have become null and void when you misspell every 4 words. Your screen name is even misspelled.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...momloves3, I didn't catch the name being misspelled, and I couldn't have said the rest better!
First, use your spell check or make sure mommy reads it before you post. Second, freedom of choice also applies to those of us who choose to criticise others for being morons about their health. Eating an 8000 calorie burger should be done only after signing a waiver for your health insurance company. Hasn't anyone heard of Murphy's Law?
I was going to support you freedomof"chooice"..but, damn...give me something to work with.....
google Jim Fixx
No one's screen name is "misspelled", it's a SCREEN NAME. I'm fully aware that mine doesn't "spell anything", which is kind of the point, no one else already had it. And while I try to use spell check and also edit myself, MSNBC's spellcheck isn't very good -- for example, it takes both "MSNBC" and "spellcheck" as misspellings, the irony of which I sort of dig, I guess. And I don't have to google Jim Fixx, author of The Complete Book of Running, who was long regarded as sort of a guru of physical fitness, until he dropped dead of a heart attack at 50.
Rlquall
Who put a burr under your saddle?
They do have a "Harry Reid Secret Burger" specially ramrodded behind closed doors and guaranteed to make to use the of Obamacare mandatory.
pathetic! neither the desperate customers or the restaurant owners are deserving of the attention this article is getting. They are both disgusting, only in Las Vegas !
Not only in Las Vegas, I know there is one right outside of Phoenix. I think it's the original one.
Someone needs a nap!
They should put a 10000 calorie "Kevorkian Burger" on the menu ....which has a special sauce that contains cyanide. This would save billions in healthcare costs !
Is plotting mass murder a hobby of yours?
It will reduce overpopulated fat obese people too! and the US will no longer be #1 throughout the world with obesity and diabetes!
No.... the cyanide is clearly listed in the ingredients. People would have thefreedom of choice for a quick death instead of long drawn out suicide with the eventuality of strokes, heart attacks, or diabetes. Then medicare and medicade will have enough money to help those who care about their well-being.
Is the author seriously stating that the burger has lard covered (as in a condiment) on the burger as if it is mayonaise? I'm sorry but that doesn't make sense, as I am sure looking at the picture of the burgers that no one in their right mind would eat lard straight out of the can on a burger. That is asking for trouble.
Like others, I wouldn't eat this without the help of others. I don't like hamburgers that much.
Yup, that's lard! I saw it on Diners, Drive-ins & Dives.
Be sure to tip your waitress, and if she smiles go ahead and push her all the way over.
Industrial if that is on the burger, I won't be eating it. That sounds disgusting. Fry my fries in it but I don't wanna eat it.
Places like this count on stupid customers, and there's a sucker born every minute. Now they'll just have shorter lifespans.
A guy weighs over 350 lbs, THATS MASS. IF he eats an 8000 calorie burger, THATS suicide. NO ONE forced him to eat it. Mass MURDER is when one kills more than 100 people.
MMMM MM!!! I want some of that action!
In other news: 'merica, FUG YEAH!!!
As long as people want to eat there it is their choice===but I'm surprised that Obama hasn't stuck his nose in this yet, for freedom to do what you want is on it's way out.
Wrong blog dummy. This article is about a person having a heart attack at a burger joint...not politics. Get a friggin' life.
It will be about politics soon enough.
You are high
now you went and jinxed it, he'll probably be calling a press conference any minute now to announce his new "Burger Czar"
what do these fat ass people think is going to happen to their hearts, that is so grosss
If they claim that Michelle Obama said this restaurant food is not healthy ... their profits would go through the roof .... Republicans would be lined up for miles to show their support.
Liberals don't eat meat, they only pull it! (I'm referring to bar-b-q of course! Or am I, hmm?)
Freedom to do what you like is on it's way out? Seems to me it's long gone. BTW, will they serve them rare?
Do they sell Franchises. The Original one is in Arizona.
Sadly, not any in Arizona anymore :(
They closed up their location by my house in Chandler, and moved to Las Vegas.
I was in Vegas, and stopped by, but the line to get in was over 30 minutes long.
I lived in the Phx area a couple years ago...wasn't there more than one location in "the valley"?
I think it was on Thomas Rd ...at 44th St?
@hadenough, I'm pretty sure the only AZ location was in Chandler.
I think the place you are talking about on Thomas is "The Grill Next Door", they also have real good burgers
There was a "Heart Attack Grill" in Houston or Dallas I think, but they also closed.
I guess this is the legal version of assisted suicide. Too bad Jack Kevorkian didn't think of this, he would have made money without getting in trouble.
he-he
i am a big time burger lover, but how in the heck can a person get there moth around a burger that size?? dont get me wrong, i would be willing to try, but my mouth does not have a hinge jaw like snakes do. i am thinken 2 half pound patties is more then enough. lord....all this talk about burgers is makeing me hungry. (on the serious side, hope both the lady and gentalmen get well.)
Maybe the burger got out of a Florida jail and is under witness protection. Run Willie, Run. Be free. Don't let them catch the white-Hispanic Orca.
Free Willie Jimenez!
Will somebody tell me how "iceburg" the albino Orca is "white-hispanic" He was discovered in Russia...shouldn't he be a "white-red"?
I'd try one..with four friends to split it with!
The burger wasn't the problem. Why does the reporting on these 'events' insist on implying that the restaurant is at fault here? If someone has a heart attack while eating a burger, it was going to happen anyway even if they were at Whole Foods having a salad. The problem is the physical & medical state of the "patient" before he/she ever waddled in through the door.
Absolutely! When will personal responsibility make a comeback? It's not like anyone forces people to eat this much food at one sitting. They voluntarily walk into the establishment and order it, and then try to eat it! Don't blame the restaurant, blame the patron.
Never. Personal responsibility is not allowed in the enlightened society. It is always someone else's fault.
I'm not saying it's the restaurant's fault, but the burger IS the problem, that is consuming it over and over, day after day. People who develop pre-exhisting medical conditions do so by developing habits like eating at places like that over and over.
I'm all for Darwinism, and the health-care industry needs jobs, so whatever.
Funny, these burgers haven't affected me...but maybe that's because I've got sense enough NOT to eat them!
Conclusion? It's not the burger's fault, either!
Seriously...who would be foolish enough to eat at such a place?? We have the highest rate of heart disease of any country on this planet. I can only assume that it's due to either apathy or stupidity. I'll pass, thanks.
This is coming from the Caffeine Queen.
Some of us have a weight problem you know. If i dont eat at places like this I become a tooth pick. I dont go saying you're stupid for eating other stuff. You should learn to judge less. :(
Caffeine does not contribute to heart disease, although it can lead to palpitations, jitteriness, etc. if taken in excessive quantities. Neither is this comment referring to weight, even though most heart disease co-exists with other health problems found in overweight/obese people, such as hypertension, Type 2 diabetes, and so on. The comment refers to heart disease, which is found in many "thin" or "skinny" people as well - one not need be fat to have it.
Sometimes the very first sign of cardiovascular disease is a deadly heart attack or stroke. People need to get their cholesterol checked regularly no matter what size they are. Thin people can have heart disease too.
I think the publicity on this is ridiculous. Customers have heart attacks at restaurants all the time. Most Americans have poor eating habits and out of shape. Just so happens this women whom was not in the best physical shape (saw story on the news) has heart problems and paramedics are called out. Nothing out of the ordinary as far as I can see. Just because of the name of the restaurant.....the media gets all crazy and alarms everyone. I guess if you eat a greasy burger and fries at any other burger joint and have heart problems while eating, that is acceptable. Sooooo annoying!!!
So the Woman had heart problems... every Cardiologist would have told her not to eat food like this !! If she is stupid enough to go back she should order the Kevorkian Burger !!
So a normal healthy person walks in, eats this burger and has a heart attack? Dream on "Breaking News" writers.
May I place your order? One assisted suicide to go please!
wow after i just finished watching that movie "Fat Head"!
smh...and people are still going to this place. They can't even blame the restaurant though, but those who choose to go here and eat the high calorie food. That's ridiculously too much for one person! But the woman was drinking, smoking and everything else so it probably just wasn't the burger itself.
"I actually felt horrible for the gentleman because the tourists were taking photos of him as if it were some type of stunt. Even with our own morbid sense of humor, we would never pull a stunt like that," owner Jon Basso
Hah! He feels bad for someone's horrible decision making. How cute... Now the moral question is, should he feel bad about serving people those horrible decisions knowing full well how unhealthy the food is and that people like that are too damn stupid to prevent themselves from being glutinous wastes of life?
who cares? Oh wait... thats one less paying customer. Damn them...
I think a better question might be: who came along and made you chief of the food police and put you in charge of determining who is stupid? I know I didn't vote for you. I'm sure there are many things in your life that others might find stupid.
Hmmm, so BC24 I guess whenever I walk into a restaurant and order something the waiter should ask a few questions about my general health and then decide what's good for me to eat. That's gonna go over really well now isn't it!! I eat pretty healthy the majority of the time. I cook most of our food at home from scratch and avoid a lot of processed crap. So whose business is it if once in a while I decide to go out and eat something totally unhealthy!! That doesn't mean I eat like that every day, so just because someone with a pre-existing condition croaks at a burger joint doesn't mean all restaurants should go vegan to save us from ourselves. What I eat and when I eat it is no bodies business but mine!!
I would bet there is some clause in Obamacare that will support the creation of such jobs. The kids working through college as servers would automatically be enrolled in classes on invasive health techniques and how to be a nanny state.
Whats horrible is the jackazz tourist taking pictures of a person having a heart attack!
People are free to eat what they want, can't blame the eatery for this. It's ok to indulge every once in a while. But if you make poor nutritional decisions over a long period of time, you are going to have to live with the consequences. In other news, I could go for one of these burgers right about now. *drools*
Exactly. Just like that woman who drank 2 gallons of Coca Cola every day for years. Now the family wants to sue Coca Cola (the husband never thought that Coca Cola was bad; he thought that it was like drinking water). Not to mention she smoked a pack and a half every day. Her choices killed her; not the soda company.
The burgers ARE good...but the "single bypass burger" is more than enough for a meal!
By me, we have 5 Guys, Burgers and Fries. Their burgers are DISGUSTING....but good. I only eat there 2 times a year. I keep making the mistake of ordering the regular sized burger and not the small one.
Everyone raved so much about Five Guys that when they came to our area I stopped in. My "heart attack" darn near came when it was something like $13.75 for a cheesburger, fries, and a Coke. At least until my order came. Honestly, at first I thought that they had brought out someone else's order, like maybe a small family. The fries came in what looked like a hardware-store sack and it was jammed full-to-overflowing; at least twice what used to be in the old "supersize" at McDonald's (they were great, but G-D help anyone who could eat all of them) and the burger must've weighed at least twelve ounces. I had to cut it in half and then could only eat that one half. It's really good but it's total overkill; I'll only be going back if I have someone else with me who wants to go there and then we'll split everything.
Rlquall, go for the small burger. As for the fries, small is huge there. I don't bother getting a drink.
Rick Perry is definitely in favor of the flavor of pink slime!
And I wasn't responding to this post, I was responding to the first one in this whole chain. MSN - you suck the ship out of a dead man's bottle!
