60 grams of fat for breakfast!


ST. LOUIS, Missouri (AP) -- The people who brought you the Monster Thickburger and the 1,100-calorie salad are at it again -- this time for breakfast.

"We don't try to hide what these are," a Hardee's spokesman said of the 920-calorie breakfast burrito.

Hardee's on Monday rolled out its new Country Breakfast Burrito -- two egg omelets filled with bacon, sausage, diced ham, cheddar cheese, hash browns and sausage gravy, all wrapped inside a flour tortilla. The burrito contains 920 calories and 60 grams of fat.

Brad Haley, marketing chief for the St. Louis-based fast-food chain, said the burrito offers the sort of big breakfast item normally found in sit-down restaurants with an added advantage.

"It makes this big country breakfast portable," he said.

At first, I will be an organ donor- If I have any thing usefull then. Cremation was my next thought, however I thought donating my bod to Science may be a better way to serve overall.

It would sit in my belly like a lead weight, issuing burps of doom every other step. I'd have to lie down if I ate that thing.

There is a place in Wilmington called Flaming Amy's Burrito barn. There burritos are as fat as ostrich eggs and twice as long. Here is a pic of one of their house rules ...
