Fast food isn’t the best food for us to eat…of course we know that. But there are some menu items that came out in 2010 that were created that could possibly kill us!!!! Hit the jump to see which fast food killers made the list.
Sausage Pancake Bites: You can run, but you can’t hide from Dunkin’ Donuts Meat Munchkins — the ads for which have been terrorizing people on TV, online, and even on the subway. It’s true: Fast food breakfast was trendy in 2010. But that’s still no excuse for DD to pawn off these greasy little breakfast balls on innocent customers.
$2 Meal Deals (from Taco Bell):One measly taco, one cup of watered-down sugar water, and one bag of chips should never ever in any way, shape, or form be considered a “meal.”
Mimosas:In a desperate attempt to lure fast food breakfast customers away from McDonald’s, Burger King tested a “BK brunch” in limited locations complete with non-alcoholic mimosas. Note to Burger King: OJ Sprite does not a mimosa make.
McRib:After McDonald’s reintroduced the product to outlets nationwide this fall, it became clear why the sandwich has a cult — and not a widespread — following. General consensus: We liked the McRib better when it was nearly impossible to locate.
Fried Cheese Melt:Can you ever have too much cheese? When we’re talking about four fried mozzarella sticks inside a grilled cheese sandwich (at Denny’s), well then the answer is: Yes, absolutely, yes.
Sharable Pizza Burger:Even if you shared the mammoth pizza burger six ways as Burger King intended, you’d only be consuming 420 calories in Whopper, pepperoni, cheese, and marinara sauce. But what would be the point of that?
Lasagna Sandwich:Just because two foods are awesome on their own doesn’t automatically mean they should go together. Someone’s Italian grandmother is offended by the lasagna sandwich, and you should be, too.
Double Down:Food bloggers the world over couldn’t shut up about KFC’s infamous sandwich — bacon and cheese wedged between two pieces of fried chicken. Most expressed horror about the fact that it has 1,380 mg of sodium, while one (clearly confused) reviewer called it “man’s greatest achievement.”
Pancake Stackers:This IHOP monstrosity features cheesecake layered between two pancakes, topped with sugary fruit compote and whipped topping — because who doesn’t like to start the day riding the blood sugar roller coaster. What, no bacon? (Sadly, their new low-cal menu is much less appetizing.)
Grilled Cheese BurgerMelt: It’s a hamburger wedged between two grilled cheese sandwiches. With mayo. Is it time to stop denying the fact that Friendly’s is trying to kill us?
