Hot Slut Of The Day!
Carl's Jr.'s new Footlong Cheeseburger (BETA)
Carl's Jr. (or Hardee's as it's called in the south) didn't want to stand by while KFC's Double Down, Burger King's Seven Incher and Sonic's quarter pound dog pillaged bowels everywhere, so they pulled down their pants and whipped out a Footlong Cheeseburger (aka Kirstie Alley's new fiance). Carl's is only sticking the tip in by testing their Footlong in only a few of their locations in Southern California. Hopefully, they fix a few things before they slap it on the tongues of everyone in the country.
First of all, how are they going to call this mess a "Footlong" when it's only three patties? Carl's couldn't make a ground beef mold out of Tommy Lee's peen and put that on a bun? Second of all, where's the deep fried battered bacon or the chunks of cheese-filled hot dogs?! Pfft. My guess is that Carl's studies will show that only 4 out of 5 people barfed up pieces of their arteries and shat out blood after eating their Footlong. They need to go 5 for 5! If Carl's wants to play, they better come at our intestines harder. I have hope they will make this happen.
Here's a few pictures of Carl's newest assault on America. Food Beast wrote up a quick review before being carted away by an ambulance.

Ok, I notice both of you are from PA. My roommate is from PA also, so we often talk about the differences in produce prices here and there.
The cost of living here is actually very very cheap (which is why I moved here). It's just this area has little to no local agriculture AT ALL. Before I moved, 95% of my food was produced locally and CHEAP. Here, it is a struggle to find anything local (sometimes there isn't a SINGLE item in the produce section that is from TX!!), so everything is double or triple the cost that it should be and bruised/spoiled. And I'm not talking like "this has a few brown spots" spoiled, I mean like you cut into it and the whole fruit is rotted through.
The 2 options (because I am not even going to consider walking into Walmart, especially for food) the huge big box grocery store, and Whole Foods. I will concede WF has good, organic produce, but at $35-$50 a bag that is just not something I can afford right now.
I'm actually looking at driving about 45 mins outside of town because I found there is a local CSA program, and they will trade work for food. So basically I'm looking at 8-10 hrs of hard farm labor for food that will feed me for a week, isn't rotted and coated in pesticides. (This is fine for now, but if I had a family to take care of or a disability I really don't know what I'd do!)
PS- I really want to visit PA, it is sooooo gorgeous there right now!!!

I live in PA. If I go to some farmer's markets, I can buy a head of lettuce for 99 cents. Not just iceberg either, I'm talking red or green leaf. I will concede and say this this is during the summer, during the winter, one place I shop at raises it to $1.49. I have a produce market on the corner of my neighborhood, I can get a bag a fruit (usually about 5 pieces) for two bucks. I can also get a head of romaine lettuce for 1 buck or buck fifty. All the stuff is fresh, and trust me, A LOT of people in the area go there because supermarket produce is too expensive and it's garbage. The deli meats at this place are cheaper than the supermarkets too (not that deli meats are much better than fast food.) Right now, they're selling 3 ears of corn for a dollar...,about the price of a candy bar... that you can eat in a few minutes, hell, CANDY BARS don't even cost a dollar anymore in some places. As a single person, 3 ears of corn, along with other produce, could last me a week.
Either you live somewhere that the cost of living is higher, or you just don't want to make an effort. I know the economy is bad, I'm looking for a job myself. But I lost weight a while back, and maintaining that keeps some of my health costs down. But if you're "convinced" that healthier food is too expensive, I'm sure Big Pharma would be happy when you have to shell out hundreds of dollars for HBP or cholesterol meds.

I wonder why it's so hard to go back to producing food at a more local level instead of creating mutants that can't even be eaten.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Because huge influential corporations are behind the drive to eradicate local farming in the pursuit of making factory farming 'the norm' and factory farming won't work if local farmers re-enter the food marketplace. Bogus state and local health law enforcement make it pretty much financially impossible for small local farms to compete with The Corporations due to the high expense involved in 'meeting regulations'. Hence, small local farming is virtually dormant and just about everything you see in the grocery store is produced by just 4 or 5 major players in the food game. See the movie Food Inc.
(sarcasm) Are we sure the pharmaceutical industry isn't in bed with the fast food industry? (/sarcasm)
Because America isn't fat enough.

LOLL my first thought was, "Do I eat it or hit it?"
Also did a double-take on the sodium# myself! I hate to think what the fat content is but if you're eating one of those in the first place, you probably don't give a shunt. ;-)

".........and a diet Coke."
Carl's hasn't provided the caloric, fat or sodium content but one site calculated the footlong amounts to 2460 calories & 5070mg of sodium (no fat info provided).

5070 grams of sodium? Holy crap, the daily RDA in the U.S. is 2400 and 1600 in the U.K. That is off the chain.
Having said that, I would hit it hard the morning after a boozy night out. :)

Back in the day I would be hung over and have a craving for some greasy hamburger and fries. That foot long cheeseburger would have been the first thing I would eat. Now I am wiser. When I am hungover I eat salads and soup.
Yes, because that is exactly what America needs, Carl Jr's. Just looking at that is enough to turn me off of fast food. Hmmm....maybe that isn't such a bad idea after all.

Wow, in Mexico I believe supermarkets only carry fruits and veggies from the USA and China which are mostly over-frozen and blatantly rotten. It's very strange too, they look perfectly okay from the outside but are black or 'dusty' on the inside. Once I even bought some mangoes that remained green for two days but larvae came out when I finally decided to peel one.
I wonder why it's so hard to go back to producing food at a more local level instead of creating mutants that can't even be eaten.
And that burger looks like somebody stepped on it.
You can only stay obese on massive quantities of food. Last time I checked, you could get a can of beans for 85 cent not even on sale....When your freezer is stocked with Sara Lee Pies and garlic butter dinner roles and frozen pizzas and icecream,etc, etc, etc...Don't bitch to anyone about the price of fresh produce. You can take your ass out of the 'frozen pizza' and 'cookie' aisles and look at the BARGAINS in the canned and frozen vegetable aisles. Americans are not obese because of the cost of things. We are FAR from the ones feeling the pinch, yet our obesity rate tops the charts since the '80's...Yeah...

In 2008, only one state (Colorado) had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. Thirty-two states had a prevalence equal to or greater than 25%; six of these states (Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and West Virginia ) had a prevalence of obesity equal to or greater than 30%.
Congrats, America.

Produce is great when you have a family to feed. When you're one person it kinda sucks. FOR instance - at the variety store. In canada - I can buy water for 1.50 or pop for 1.00...I can buy an apple for 1.00 or a chocolate bar for .50....

Exactly. These are the same choices that FAMILIES have to make. The further down the socioeconomic ladder you are, the tougher those choices become. These parents have to constantly battle between the healthier option or the more frugal option. Unfortunately, the cheaper option is always going to prevail. You can buy several apples for a X amount of dollars or a bunch of candy bars AND Happy Meals for X amount of dollars. Of course, then the child doesn't have a reference point for healthy eating habits and becomes an obese adult with its accompanying issues and the added strain on an already overburdened healthcare system. Wash, rinse and repeat. If you saw this plan in a movie, you would think it were a stroke of evil genius. But it's reality, which makes it 10X scarier.

Sorry, Carls Jr's, the only footlong that will ever enter my mouth comes from Subway... at some point, size just becomes a novelty and not meant for human ingestion
Thank goodness there isn't a Carl Jr. in my area. Even on my PMS days, I would not touch that thing with a ten foot (feel like an ass for typing inch the first time) pole. Yuck. I'm also wondering if there's much of a difference between Checkers and Hardees. Never been to the latter food chain.

Yeah... those are healthy in "relative" terms. Like, fried chicken chunks on a salad. Fat-drenched salad dressing (I know you don't have to use it, blah blah). A baked potato loaded with butter or other shit.
Also why is it the only salads that are offered anywhere are LETTUCE salads? I freaking hate iceberg lettuce. Why not spinach, or kale, or butter lettuce or ANYTHING dark green?
I was going to say that the above burger was "wrong wrong wrong" but the actual photos look a bit wimpy in terms of fat presence (not that anybody needs to eat a footlong burger). If I'm stuck eating fast food, though, I do prefer Hardee's/Carl's Jr. over most places because their burgers are actually really good since that burger makeover they had about five years ago.

In schools, they don't even offer juice. Even tho everyone knows Everfresh lasts forever (hence the name). When the parents finally got them to remove the pop, they replaced it with DRINK. Why?
Whole food is SO much less accessible than crap...even eating out, simple like - for lunch. You know how LONG I can look for anything that doesn't include bread and/or grease in most areas? Forever. Luckily (or rather, on purpose) I live in an area that provides a lot of hand made "ethnic" foods that are not too expensive so I can always grab something kinda healthy...but generally a burger's always cheaper.

In some parts of the country, four bucks can buy you a weeks' worth of produce.
________________________________________________________
What country is this? Certainly not America. This is precisely why obesity is keeps topping the charts with hit after hit. This yummy colon compactor is affordable. Fruits and veggies are freaking expensive. Then there's the huge disparity in price when you have organic vs. non-organic.
__________________________________________________________
I just moved from Santa Cruz, CA to Austin, TX. In SC, you can go to any market and buy about 2 weeks worth of fresh ORGANIC produce for $10. If you go to the farmer's market, you can buy that same amount for $5-7. There are also very few fast food places, hardly any "big box" stores, and almost no dollar stores.
Austin, despite being extremely health conscious, does not have anywhere near the selection of food or produce. Everything is wilted/bruised, and is shipped in from Mexico or California. Normal, non-organic Bell peppers cost $2 a pepper, vs $2/lb for the organic stuff back home. It costs so much to eat produce, I've started giving up and buying mostly fast food- the restaurants that dominate the landscape.
Also, if any of you have been paying attention, a new ultra toxic pesticide has been legalized in CA for strawberries. So if you can't buy organic you should pretty much just skip 'em.
This shit looks exactly how it's gonna come out!! SHIT!

I grew up near my grandparent's farm where they grew everything in the garden, raised their own cows, bought chickens and eggs from a nearby farmer and I was feeling sad that my kids missed out. We all live in the cities now where everything is sooo busy and convenient and I miss the days when my grandma would tell us, if you want apple crisp for dessert, then you better grab a bucket and go pick some. No fruit or vegetable tastes as good as fresh out of the garden. We gotta start growing our own shit again.
