If you want to play a funny joke on a cardiologist friend, send them a link to the foods below and tell them this is how you've been indulging yourself.
While I like unhealthy stuff as much as anyone else, I think I might have gained a few pounds just reading about the foods listed below.
Though I have no qualms with indulgence in the finer things in life, you want to keep a defibrillator at the ready if you plan on eating these things! #1: Smith Island Cake You might wonder why a delicate, beautiful, and innocent looking piece of chocolate cake is on this list.
Besides, this ten layer chocolate cake only has about 300 calories, which, while a lot for a small piece of cake is nothing compared to some of the noxious delights described below.
However, the whopping 26 grams of fat it hides between its not-so-innocent layers earns it a top spot on this list.
#2: Mayonnaise Drinks I know people like mayonnaise, and I do too, but this seems to be taking things to a bit too far of an extreme.
Mayonnaise cocktails, are they the next big thing in America? Let's hope not because after drinking a few of these, the next big thing will be your gut.
#3: Every Topping Under the Sundae Cold Stone Creamery, oh how I love thee...
Before I start waxing poetic about the beauty that is Cold Stone, I will say, this is a cholesterol ridden heart attack in a blissfully sweet facade.
But its worth it! Not only is Cold Stone on its own just about perfect, this sundae is topped with all their delightful toppings, making heaven just a little bit closer to Earth.
#4: The Giant Sundae For those with a major sweet tooth, how 'bout 90 gallons of ice cream, 10 gallons of fudge and strawberries, and 30 pounds of pecans? If that isn't enough for you, I think you might want to see someone about an overeating problem.
#5: The KFC Double Down Sandwich Between 2 Krisy Kreme Donuts This has got to be one of the most fattening and cholesterol ridden things you can get for under $7.
Take the bread-less, two fried chicken patties, cheese, and mayonnaise goodness that is the KFC Double Down sandwich and put it between a pair of glistening Kripsy Kreme donuts.
Now THAT is a meal of champions.
#6: Deep Fried Anything You could deep fry a sock and it would be good.
At least, that is the mentality of a couple of Brits who set up shop in Brooklyn.
They run an eatery that specializes in all things deep fried.
From french fries to deep fried Twinkies and Mars Bars, you are might want to wear some stretchy pants before you stop by here.
#7: The Shackleton Dinner A 6,000 calorie dinner boasting a 20 ounce steak, stew, and ham, is a meal fit for a King.
Or, as the namesake was, an adventurer.
This meal would not be complete either without the requisite milkshake, glass of one, and bottle of beer.
#8: The Giant Schnitzel Nothing says German quite like the schnitzel, and who is Texas to try to have the biggest everything? Now, when you want a mammoth schnitzel and a pile of fries to match, you are in luck.
However, this might be something you want to keep from your cardiologist, lest you get "the talk" about proper diet, 'cause this sure isn't.
#9: The Scrambler Breakfast When you want a real breakfast, hit the Scrambler.
This breakfast platter boasts eggs, bacon, cheese, toast and more, in portion sizes that would make Paul Bunyon blush.
#10: The Lobster Roll It is hard to accept that this tasty treat is as fattening and horrendously bad for you.
But as sad as it is, this sandwich is comprised of lobster meat, mayonnaise, butter, mayonnaise, and butter.
And maybe a bit more mayonnaise.
This is one of those deceptively bad things that many think would be a "lighter" choice.
They would be very, very wrong.
