Good God – suicide on a plate. The place is in Chandler Arizona – I hope it doesn’t spread. They call it the Heart Attack Grill Diet Center.

That right there is exactly what is wrong with America.

Never mind the burgers, just looking at the waitresses almost gave me a heart attack,

We went to the Los Angeles County Fair last week – it’s amazing how many people are riding around on little motorized things because they’re too big to walk.
The saving grace of it is that instead of us having to look at all the pretty young things and remember when we used to look like that, they all outweigh us by 20 pounds now. I never thought I would see the day when the 20 year-olds in Los Angeles outweighed me, but many of them do, and I’m certainly not skinny. There is justice in the universe.BTW Jill, I saw your business card in the new Sign Craft. I need to do that.

Looks like heaven to me, I’m lucky though I could eat the burgers all day every day and not put on a pound, my Mrs hates me for it though as she starts yet another diet. Bet they do nice muffins as well.

You see that in the town nearest me every day.
They get them free from medicare and use them to ride around trading their food stamps for crack.
Or to go to the donut shop or McDonald’s.I thought the young gals in LA were all skeletal, I heard in Hollywood if you wear bigger than a size 2 you are considered to be fat.
At any amusement park around here, in summer, all you see is young girls wearing those belly-baring tops and lo-rise shorts, who look like they eat at one of these places on a daily basis.
The Hollywood gals would be binge-ing and purging for sure.Nobody cooks real food anymore, they just throw prefab crap at their kids (who no longer play outside but sit glued to their X boxes)
Or they dine at places like this. Scary.
Soon there won’t be enough money for stuff like this and everyone will go back to gardening and home canning.
That might be a good thing.

Similar here Jill.
When my dad was recovering from his stroke/heart attack/quad bypass…. he noticed a few teenagers also in the wards.
He asked the nurse why they were there, thinking they were too young to have the same condition as him (ie stroke) and they told him they are getting kids as young as 9 – 12 years old having strokes now. All are obese but they said that teenagers with stokes are so common in hospitals now it doesn’t even raise an eyebrow anymore.
Drugs and smoking don’t help either, but whatever they do, its still way too young. Blocked arteries caused by obesity is the #1 reason for a stroke in a pre teen.

That might be a good thing.The people that the paparazzi follow around are skeletal, but that’s hardly the majority of Los Angeles. Here as well as anywhere else a quick look around would tell you there’s more binging than purging happening these days.
People have stopped eating food in favor of food-like substances.
And you’re quite right – at the rate we’re going, people will soon be eating whatever they can get and liking it, if they’re lucky enough to get it.
America is painfully growing up – it looks like we’ve gone through our empirical adolescence much quicker than most, and now all that swagger is coming to the predictable outcome. Where do we get 700 billion dollars for a bailout when we already owe the Chinese 500 billion? This is going to hurt. Maybe what everybody is really doing is laying in a supply of fat to take them through the next part. It’s evolution at work. -

Oh Gawd – sorry – I’m not a complete eejut. Of course I meant "imperial."

Really? I’m sure I’ll have another occasion to do so. 😀

if you want a real scare, check out the website. 🙂
They sell candy cigarettes for the kids, and suggest a good breakfast is an iced donut and a pack of cigs.
He’s doing nothing wrong of course. In the real world, no one is forcing anyone to eat this stuff. Personally I think the quad stack looks the most unappetizing burger I’ve seen.
But, if people can’t see the ‘wrong’ in this sort of diet, then no amount of shaming or guilt will make them change their habits anyway. If they can’t buy it there, they’ll buy something else equally disgusting somewhere else.
I know of a guy that works with my wife, he’d be 200 – 230 kg and can’t walk up 10 steps without stopping at every 2nd or 3rd step to catch his breath.
He’ll probably not see his grandchildren grow up, as he’ll die an early death. But he refuses to diet, because ‘no one has the right’ to stop him eating what he enjoys most.
Frankly I don’t care what he does, but my fear is my wife will find him dead at his desk one day, then his selfishness will impact on not only my wifes life, and therefore my own, and that of my children, but it will severely impact on his wife’s life, and his two lovely daughters.
Of course, he could have a heart attack at the wheel of his car, on the freeway to work…. then he’ll impact many more lives…..
Sad really. We live in an increasingly selfish society. This man is just catering to that ideal, and he’s probably making a fortune…

That is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen, I know people have the choice of eating it or not but when they encourage it like that and at the prices they charge weak willed or greedy people will spend their money there.
My children eat home cooked meals and fruit, they get crisps and chocolates as a special treat and as such are normally sized and active.
and love to play outside, we spent all day at the beach yesterday with jet skis and playing out side, they rarely sit at home playing games except Christmas and cold winter evenings.
Its no wonder We have "fat nations" when this sort of parasitic food place preys on weak people.
My friend went to Florida and told me of a chair next to a ride that if you were like over 20 stone in appearance you had to sit in it, if you didn’t fit you couldn’t ride, sad very sad. -
I’m with Peter on this one – who cares about the food, look at the Gals 😮
(Reminds me of another American food franchise called Hooters 😳 )
