Wakey, wakey! Time for breakfast!

[George K]

This morning I had to run an errand, and Mrs. George asked, "Hey! As long as you're out, can you pick up breakfast from McDonald's for me? Get me a coffee, a small orange juice and a 'Big Breakfast.'"

So I did.

The "Big Breakfast."



1300 calories? Really?

I try to stay under 1800 calories per day. That doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room for (cheap) Scotch, let me tell you!

Unsurprising; fast food has tons of calories.

(I probably go through 2500 or so a day.)

Of course.

But, just for a sense of perspective, a Big Mac and medium fries is about 870 calories.

Add some OJ for breafast, and you're North of 1500 calories, I'd be.

I was shocked.

Speaking for Horace, yes, that is really food that will make anyone fat.

[Horace]

Sorry Rainman, I can't hear you over the sound of how fat you are.

It's better to not think of that stuff as "food," which, David Burton attestations notwithstanding, isn't really the best way to describe it.
