Speaking of things that will make you ill

Bucking the trend of providing customers with salads and fruits (because if you're eating fast food you're not a salad or fruit kind of diner), Burger King has come out with "The Enormous Omelet Sandwich." As a rule, I avoid any meal that has "big," "huge," "giant," "gordo," or "super" in its nomenclature. But apparently some diners will be enticed by this mouth-drying ad copy:
Wake up to a mouthful of breakfast with the Enormous Omelet Sandwich. Two slices of melted, American cheese, two fluffy eggs stuffed with three crispy strips of bacon, and a sizzling sausage patty, piled high on a toasted bun. The Enormous Omelet Sandwich from BURGER KINGĀ®. So big, breakfast will never be the same.

Ew.

In a review titled, "47 grams for breakfast--and it's not even tasty," one reviewer writes: The whole sandwich has a limp, just-microwaved softness; it sags in your hand and its mouthfeel doesn't even hint at the caloric damage.

Thanks (I think) to Steve Mockus for sharing.

Nasty. It's just simply disturbing. Yuck. Fuck the King.
