The
Center for Science in the Public Interest, just released a list of winner's from their yearly
Xtreme Eating Awards that highlights quite possibly worst items you could ever order at certain popular chain restaurants. The sad part is that because they're so fatty and horrible for your health, then that means they are probably delicious.

No one dish can make you obese. It's about what you choose to eat/do over a period of years.
Yeah, they'd make you obese if you eat one of these frequently. But, if you only eat out occasionally and maintain a healthy and nutritious diet the rest of the time, these aren't going to do damage. You know, unless digesting them is a bitch, which I can imagine would be a likely case.
I know for a fact that I have an extremely low tolerance for fatty foods.
never tasted these , some i might soon(x
1, 3, and 4, I would l love nothing more than to try. Unfortunately, according to the majority of people in my life and society, I am not ever allowed to indulge or stop making myself miserable over my weight, so I haven'tbern able to treat myself to even something normal in the longest time. So... Yeah, I would never be able to taste anything like that without feeling so guilty I'd want to die or being torn to pieces by someone around me who doesn't approve. =/ oh well. C'est la vie.
My stomach is growling terribly now. >.< shouldn't have read this on a totally empty stomach..,
None of those dishes look appetizing to me, except for the steak. I would share it though, I have trouble finishing an 8 ounce steak, let alone one that is triple the size! I don't believe any dish will make you obese, but it can contribute to it. If one was to consume all these dishes frequently, then I would say you might become obese. One can indulge occasionally without becoming obese.
i would totally try 1, 3 and 4
How the hell can some of these things be that many calories. It's like they just have a bottle of calories and sprinkle it on the dish =| I've tried the Denny's Cheese Melt...it's so good. But you can probably make it yourself (and healthier)
I've had the fried cheese melt. It's delicious!! Definitely not something I'd eat every day based on the nutrition facts, but it's yummy for the rare occasion I'm going to splurge.
1. looks disgusting. I will die without tasting it.
2. might be edible...there is a slim chance I wouldn't gag.
3. is yummy. if I weren't lazy I'd go get one now.
4. IS DISGUSTING. I was so pissed when I ordered this, but I should have known that Applebee's version of Italian would be awful.
5. Is probably the best thing on the list, but they'd have to make it rarer for me to even think about eating.
I would want to get the farmhouse cheeseburger without the onions and mayo, but I would like try all of these. If for no other reason, I would want to do it just to give the old middle finger salute to the food police.
OHHHHHH my god! hahah i look at the dishes and go ooouh looks yummy... THEN i look at the calories and my jaw drops! GROSS that's like my entire calories for the fricken day!
"Provolone-Stuffed Meatballs With Fettuccine." I want.
why don't they post gross looking stuff with high calories now seeing how good they look and sound (except the nasty nutrition) makes me want them
1 looks disgusting, 2 I don't like eggs on my burgers, 3 4 and 5 I'd eat a smaller serving of.
@ohheybbyitscorixx@xanga - oil/butter/cheese have a lot of calories.
. Denny's Fried Cheese Melt (pictured above): Four fried mozzarella sticks and melted American cheese grilled between two slices of sourdough bread.
FUCKING DELICIOUS. i've had it plenty of times, my goodness. i miss it now, thanks a lot! haha
I would eat any of them with a big smile.
The Denny's fried cheese melt is amazing,
I used to eat one about every other day after work ( Dennys was the only place open at 2 am, when us Six flags employees got off)It's one of the cheapest things on the menu. Only 4 bucks with fries.@NightCometh@xanga - You took what I was going to say! lol
This is scary because I'd eat any of these (except the first one) on a normal day.
HOLY CRAP. that one meal exceeds what I eat in a DAY O_O
O my gosh! The applebees one looks SOO good! I love provolone cheese. I would try it if I wasnt lactose intolerant, lol. I'm going there on a date and don't want anything embarrassing to happen...the other stuff looks nasty. Coldstone's PB&C thing is supposed to have fat, it's peanut butter and peanut butter is supposed to be healthy fat. the Denny's thing looks like obvious heart attack, no suprise there, fried with cheese...it looks disgusting anyway.
I forgot that one meal can make you obese.
i believe this is entirely factual. i can just stare at this food and gain a pound for each second.
@thisiswhereItellyoueverything@xanga - Well, I know that, it's just that sometimes the entree won't even be terribly big and it's more than half the calories an average person eats...amazing.
