The double bacon hamburger fatty melt

I need to tell you about this week’s WTF blog: This is why you’re fat, “where dreams become heart attacks”. Simultaneously activating most brain zones (mine anyways), from desire, to disgust, to hunger to shame, it has proven to be a reliable time-waster of late.

krispykremebacon-cheddar-cheeseburgersWhat better, really, to avoid writing a media law paper than to stare with bulimic voyeurism at graphic images of “candied-bacon ice-cream”, “Krispy Kreme cheddar-bacon cheeseburgers” and “bacon-wrapped meatloaf with a layer of mac and cheese”?

The blog is so dirty you feel like washing your hands and wiping your mouth afterwards. And downing a tall glass of Perrier with lemon to alleviate the vicariously-incurred bacon taste. And for those of you with vivid imaginations of your own, and devil-may-care approaches to vascular health (you know who you are), there’s even a form to submit your own  “deliciously gross foods.”

And to think that for all these years I’d been considered myself wild for salivating over toast with honey and cheddar cheese. I may actually be quite a tame and quaint creature after all.
