Cue Heart Attack in 3, 2 ...
Seeing as how I've started watching what I eat a little closer (a preventative measure; my father lost his fast metabolism around the age I am now and ballooned. I'd like to not do that), I've started researching tips on healthier eating and found an article on Yahoo today outlining some of the unhealthiest fast food items out there.

This one took the cake: the Hardee's Monster Thickburger. Here's what Yahoo had to say about it:

"It's got the caloric equivalent of almost six McDonald's hamburgers, the saturated fat equivalent of 43 strips of Oscar Mayer bacon, and the sodium equivalent of 84 saltine crackers."

Good. Fucking. God. This thing also, apparently, has 1,420 calories, 108 g fat (43 saturated), 2,770 mg sodium and 230 mg cholesterol. My arteries are hardening just reading that.

I don't count calories or anything like that, but I am starting to be a little smarter about what I eat. More fruit and vegetables, less red meat (though I still eat some), things like that. My job doesn't always allow for planned-out, healthy meals, though; sometimes, a trip to McDonald's or Wendy's is all I have time for.

I know one thing, though ... based on that up there? No more Hardee's for me.
