Instead to curb obesity problems, more and more of outrageous food is introduced, AND people rave about it!
Would you eat any of those?

I've eaten the Baconator at Wendy's. Not the triple one shown in the article but the regular one. I must admit it is good but don't eat it very often.

I've had the McGriddle. It's an ordinary (for McD's) breakfast sandwich with small pancakes instead of an English muffin or bagel. I wouldn't put it on par with hot-dog-stuffed pizza crust, donut-and-chili sandwiches, or most of the other nauseating stuff.

Mo....Larry...the CHEESE! and What about the deep fried mac and cheese or the ordinary grilled cheese sandwiches
that are deep fried (served in restaurants and bars)? Plus the Cronut.

Almost everything on that list looks gross to me, except the pastry-wrapped sausage thingie. I might try that, if I was reeeeaaaaallly hungry. Glazed sugar donuts with bacon and hamburger patties and eggs, WTF? Yuck!

I tried a McGriddle once but it didn't do much for me. Sugary is good. Fatty is good. Sugary + fatty does not appeal to me at all.

I've never even heard of any of those - I'm in Dixie, maybe we're sheltered from most of that.

Blech, I got through almost half the photos before I had to quit, just the photos were making me sick.
I dislike fast food anyway and those photos did not help me change my mind at all.
I'll stick with breakfast I make at home.

I think quite a few of those chains exist in the south. In fact, I know they do.

I think they only thing I've had on there is the McGriddle. Not my preference, I don't really like pancakes. However, a cursory check on McDonald's nutrition information tells me that the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese McGriddle has the same calorie count as the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit, and the biscuit version actually has higher fat content than the pancake version. So I wonder why the McGriddle made the list over the biscuit? What's more, McDonald's Steak, Egg, and Cheese Bagel breakfast sandwich has more than a hundred more calories than the McGriddle, and fourteen more grams of fat. It looks like the McGriddle only got singled out because it's sweet. I'm not saying the McGriddle is good (I don't like it), but it's far from the most nutritionally "off" thing on McDonald's breakfast menu.

Of course, there's even a Krispy Kreme down the road. However, they don't offer anything like a Sloppy Joe.

I can't remember the last time I had what is considered fast food. Nothing in those pictures is going to send me through a drive-through anytime soon either.
