I've seen all sorts of decadent explorations of calories and fat. However, at Bat Fest I saw something that blew me away.

I thought chicken fried steak was bad. Well, at Bat Fest they had chicken fried bacon! :shock:

So what has everyone else seen? What's your wurst?

French fries with gravy I actualy like them

One hamburger chan in Texas has a triple cheese burger meal with a large shake is right at 2000 calories

Oh, that reminded me of the Heart Attack Grill. They have a simple menu based on the number of bypass.

Here is a picture of the Quadruple Bypass burger being enjoyed by one of the patrons with a waitress.

If you weigh over 350 lbs, you eat free! No kidding!

Here's one of my all time favorites:
Grilled Stickies at 'The Diner' in State College PA
http://www.thediner.statecollege.com/stickies.html

My favorite order at waffle house is a Pecan waffle with Potatoes Scattered, Smothered, Covered Chunked and Topped. (used to be Potatoes 'all the way,' but they've added fungus (Capped) and Jalapenos (Peppered) to the list so I have to be specific) Large Milk and Coffee

I tried a 'deep fat fried Snickers bar' at the fair one time. To be honest, I didn't care for it and Snickers is my fav. candy bar!

Hey Rockfish,

I guess Yorkshire fish and chips fried in beef tallow would be the limit for me.

Just read an article that KFC is testing a new "sandwich". It's bacon and cheese between two pieces of fried chicken. I don't make this stuff up.....

I like Brat"wurst" myself, but my "worst" would be turkey fried in gravy and fries.
