Fatter, to be honest. Anyway, so I tried The Baconator from Wendy's. Here's what it looked like in the ads:
And here's what was delivered:
Was I disappointed? Hell no. In this day and age, who really thinks they're going to get what they see on TV and on print. Especially when it comes to food.
Also, the Baconator was GREAT. How can you go wrong with the taste of melted cheese, greasy meat, and bacon? Bacon is awesome. There's nothing like wafer-thin, crispy fat attached to a dead and deep fried pig. In this world. You know what was really considerate and thoughtful of Wendy's to do? There was nary a superfluous, sacrilegious veggie in sight. None of that awful, sickly tomato liquid to run down your neck. No leaf of lettuce to dillute the taste. No pickle to make me gag. (I could've used some onion though.) And I washed everything down with a thirst-quenching Biggie Iced Tea. None of that sugar-free stuff.
Anyway, based on this spot on review, (which bases this on Wendy's corporate site) a Baconator, in terms of bad stuff, is the equivalent of each of the ff:

1 baconator=830 calories? That's already 3/4 of my recommended daily caloric allowance (sad). Maybe I should eat half for lunch then half for dinner. (:
p.s. Migmig you could've PLURKED this you know. Sign! Up! Now! - www.plurk.com
Cyn, I recommend lunch, and then the other half for the next breakfast. I don't recommend eating it for dinner. Sobrang bigat :)
PS. You're such a plurk evangelist. Ang dami ko nang bisyo no!
i wonder what you had for dessert...
Barry, a bit of cheesecake :)
Speechless. It's heavy I must say! And yea, I too never expect foods to be served on my table with the same image on the ads LOL.
