Anyone else see this on the news last week?

Hardee’s Monster Thickburger (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6498304/)

As many fast-food chains introduce healthier fare amid fears of being sued, Hardee’s is bucking the trend, serving up a megaburger with 1,420 calories and 107 grams of fat.

The Monster Thickburger contains twice the recommended daily allowance of saturated fat, and nearly a full day's worth of sodium.

:eek:

I love this bit...



In an interview on CNBC, Hardee's chief executive Andrew Puzder was unapologetic, saying the company's latest sandwich is "not a burger for tree-huggers."

"This is a burger for young hungry guys who want a really big, delicious, juicy, decadent burger," he said.

I went to a Hardees for the first time when I was down in Virginia last year. It was quite a dump.

They are franchised out across the US. Some are good and some are nasty. The one's where I live are quite good and that New Burger....damn good!
