Worst? The whole article is written in the context of calories. There is nothing wrong with eating a ton of calories as long as there is an avenue to burn them off.

 
boobsrgood [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 08:41:06 AM  
Odd that Jethro's Binge-and-Purge Vomit Fetish O'rama isn't on that list.

/Route 68, mile 27, Arkansas. Closed Sundays.

"worst"? Letting some health-food nut pick the "worst" fast food items is like that time they let Pol Pot pick who the "worst" Cambodians were.

/fark off, health-nuts

If there's one thing I hate more than healthy food, it's clickable lists on websites.

/MMM...Hardees Thickburger

Worst slide show evah.

Excellent. So now I know exactly what to add to my diet since I'm a scrawny guy who only weighs 125 lbs and wants to life lots and lots of weights.

 
destructor muffin 2009-04-05 08:49:36 AM  
*Ahem*

Who wants to lift lots and lots of weights.

Good for life, though.

I've seen these godforsaken lists on Yahoo. It's all obvious nonsense. It's amazing people bought this moron's book.

 
Treetop1000 2009-04-05 08:51:31 AM  
I saw no reference to bacon on that list.
Therefore, this comparison is flawed.
Bacon should be right up front, (crisp, dripping with greasy goodness, so hot you can barely touch it. It commands: Biscuit. NOW.)

Farking web designers!!! 19 farking click-throughs. Artificial way of boosting page reads. Who ever designed this "slideshow" needs to be taken out back and shot. There is no need for that many pages.

There is a measure of how good a food tastes. It's called a calorie.

 
angstycoder 2009-04-05 08:54:40 AM  
I clicked on fish sammich and it took me to the next item down. Too bad to mention?

 
hawkeyex [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 08:54:53 AM  
I want to know what the hell the worst fish sandwich they are saying.

It's saying "Hardee's Thickburger" - it's a cheeseburger, not a fish sandwich!

Mildly curious.

But fark them if they think I'm going to click through all that nonsense.

 
middleoftheday [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 08:57:17 AM  
These lists drive me nuts. Fatty McFatburger is no danger to you if you don't eat this kind of shiat every friggin' day. This isn't rocket science.

Calories are only bad if you are a lazy ass lump of sedentary sh*t.

Consume fuel--burn fuel.

 
PizzaJedi81 2009-04-05 09:04:08 AM  
If by worst they mean most delicious, then I agree.

 
Miss Smartass 2009-04-05 09:04:30 AM  
It's a slide show about how unhealthy fast food is. I'd rather eat a ton of McDonalds fries before I read this.

No, but Farkers could deliver a legit non-DDOS attack on MSNBC's leased servers, and we all get to be on some list compiled by ATT and the CIA.

If you're in the northeast try to find a Five Guys. It's the best fast food burger I've ever had.

 
Zap_Rowsdower 2009-04-05 09:13:20 AM  
Click 19 times so that I can read someone's preachy nagging about how fast food isn't good for you? I think I'll go find something more enjoyable to do, like removing my own gall bladder.

 
DubyaHater 2009-04-05 09:14:31 AM  
In terms of worst-tasting food, Burger King wins hands down. Expect for their onion rings. I would eat the hell out of those right now. I need to neutralize the alcohol in my system from the games last night. I feel pretty shiatty right now
