Unhealthiest fast-food stores?

[Kyriakos]

You can name your own. From the US or other places. Mostly inspired by the following gloomy pic...

That is just not right.

edit: and the sister-chain:

Neither of those are chains. I would suggest Long John Silvers as unhealthiest chain, since the only cooking device in their stores is a deep fryer.

^Ok, altered the title to allow single stores too

Hey... frying gets out the impurities .

Deep frying isn't a particularly unhealthy method of cooking.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_frying

If performed properly, deep-frying does not make food excessively greasy, because the moisture in the food repels the oil. The hot oil heats the water within the food, steaming it; oil cannot go against the direction of this powerful flow because (due to its high temperature) the water vapor pushes the bubbles toward the surface.[1] As long as the oil is hot enough and the food is not immersed in the oil for too long, oil penetration will be confined to the outer surface. However, if the food is cooked in the oil for too long, much of the water will be lost and the oil will begin to penetrate the food.

Good point. Let me add that they are also staffed with minimum wage "cooks" so the chances the food is fried to perfection are pretty low.

Long John's wouldn't surprise me.

But Hushpuppies man.

This is probably the place my friend went to when he was in Vegas a few years ago. Said they had burgers called "Triple Bypass Burger" and similar names. I think that's some of the names on the left poster. Must be the same joint.

Looks like a pretty disgusting place tbh.

It's Vegas man. Marketing on the "Sin City" theme is only to be expected.

Dallas had a Heart Attack Grill in Dallas in 2011, but it only lasted a few months. Too many Tea Partiers taking advantage of the 350 pound plus eats free offer.

You can't make an offer like that in a market that relies on repeat business from local clientele. You can't count on killing them off before they eat you out of business. As a one shot tourist draw in the Vegas market it would work though.

I've only been there once, but they only go after some of the sins, it seems. I didn't see any wife beater bars, or divorce museums, or homosexual burger joints, or polytheism golf clubs, or anything similar. The only sins they promote are sex sex sex, and.. drinking excessively. As well as I suppose eaten until your anus rips.

Other than that though..

Two of the 'Heart attack grill' spokesmen died. The latter was 29. Here he is in a pic in the grill:

That place is not a good idea :\

For food, Pizza Hut:

Spoiler :

For drinks, the sugar water of Chicken Express:

I think Dairy Queen might be less healthy, it's all sugary crap over there. And burgers I guess, but let's focus on the dairy part of it..

Gambling to excess (greed), unrestrained sex of all forms (lust), food and drink to excess (gluttony)...those are their big three.

I'm sure that with the boxing match in town there was quite a bit of pent up aggression so anger got some play, but it isn't a favorite. "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" sort of runs counter to pride, but the way they glorify winners and stars certainly makes room for envy.

What's left...ermmm...oh...sloth...yeah, they don't approve of sloth. A slothful visitor may not get around to emptying their wallet completely, so no deal on sloth.

Polytheism golf clubs would be awesome, to be fair.

It's hard to say in aggregate cus every one has some really terrible things for you but most now offer some half way acceptable in terms of nutritional things like mcdonalds grilled chicken sandwiches now.

But I was a little shaken up when I looked at the nutritional value of these breakfasts at IHOP (International House Of Pancakes) after gorging myself on corned beef hash the other day. My wife got chicken and waffles which was three chicken strips and a belgium waffle. It was good size but not gigantic, the waffle was probably 8 inches in diameter. She was like this is terrible, how many calories do you think it has? I guess without including syrup probably like 700, I mean one waffle can't be more than like 300-400 right? And about 100 per chicken strip right? In reality is was 1130 calories and I don't think that even includes syrup.

Check out that chicken fried steak breakfast. With sausage gravy it comes in at 1800 calories. FOR BREAKFAST!
