We all say that we know how much grease and fat is in fast food, but do we really?
For example, would you ever think that 10 burgers from a fast-food restaurant could allow you to create a Mona Lisa out of grease? If you say yes, how about a recreation that looks to be 12-feet tall? In the above video, artist Phil Hansen grabs a bunch of burgers and creates an insanely impressive and huge grease-image of Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting. That's only 10 double-patty burgers.
But this isn't just something out of nowhere, it's a pitch to help get Arby's some more love. That link on the bottom, burgergreaseart.com, leads you straight to an ad for Arby's new "Roastburger." If they really want to sell them this way, there should be a side-by-side competition in grease. Who knows how far a bunch of fast food roast beast could get you?
Nevertheless, it's a pretty cool way to use fast food.

When I was young and my family lived in Los Angeles, we had a tradition that we'd go to Wendy's for dinner any time the power went out. In our little Eagle Rock bungalow, the power went out nearly every time it rained, which meant we got over to Wendy's at least once every couple of months. My parents liked Wendy's because they had baked potatoes and a salad bar, and as far as fast food went, it seemed better than many of the other alternatives.
