Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
It's official. The Worst Food in America is not the Pizza-Crepe-Taco-Pancake-Chili Bag that was famous for about 30 seconds a couple of years ago. First of all, the PCTPCB doesn't actually exist, and second of all, the Aussie Cheese Fries with Ranch Dressing from Outback Steakhouse, which does exist, has made its way to the top -- er bottom, as it were -- of Men's Health's list of the 20 Worst Foods in America.
The foods were chosen based on sheer caloric impact alone, because in the end, it all comes down to the number of calories we consume and burn. However, some "allowances" were made for excessive carbohydrates and fat, added sugars, trans fats, and sodium. After all their calculations, the Aussie Cheese Fries weigh in at 2,900 calories, 182 g fat, and 240 g carbs. Even if you do the polite thing and share the order with three other people, your starter alone will already put you over a dinner's worth of calories before the server even brings your entree to the table.
So I guess that means, order the Aussie Fries and a glass of water for dinner, right?

All I know is that right now I've never wanted to go to Outback Steakhouse so badly in my life! Combine this with one of those bloomin' onions and I'll be good to go. I guess I'll go with a "lite" beer though. No point in getting too crazy, ya know.

But really, if I were you, I would be more ashamed of, what is it that Australia is repsonsible for? Vegemite? MMM yum. It prompts the most brilliant gag relfex one could encounter.
