That's one of the most unbelievable things I have ever seen. That would kill me within 24 hours.

In the immortal words of someone, "GOD ALMIGHTY." You could serve that as the final meal on death row and save the state (probably Texas) hundreds of dollars in chemical injection bills.

That is the greatest thing I've ever seen. I routinely eat that shit at the dining hall all the time, just it isn't labeled hungry man.

I could seriously fell my heart slow down just looking at the article. I'm going to the store.

I've got everything on that tray in my fridge. :o I love breakfast food! I have a feeling though I'm going to regret my addiction if the natural stuff is anywhere close to the numbers on that Swanson box.

This is one of those things I don't understand. 78,000 people will eat this for breakfast today. Couldn't yoyu at least get something that tastes good to kill you.

It's like in the NBA when some guy's on a fast break and the 'hard-nosed defender' chases him down the court only to grab his shoelace as he goes up for a lay-up. If you're gonna pick up a foul, lay the guy out.

I can't thank you enough for the link. All I know is that I have just laughed so hard that I woke my wife (she's upstairs, I'm downstairs) and that I cannot remember the last time that I literally wept from laughter.

Is a double whopper cheese worse than Jack In The Box's Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger?

I liked this quote:


Unfortunately, Swanson's supplying you with enough 'energy' to get through a week, and even if the only other thing you ate after this breakfast was oxygen, there's still a relatively high chance that your ass will grow hands and tie your intestines in knots to prevent this shit from ever passing through.

Dola.

I'm kinda surprised they didn't cut the serving size down to, say, 1/8 of a package.

"Only 8 grams of fat per serving!"

I tried one of these breakfasts and was very disappointed.

They put the lard pone on top of the egg pone.

Weak. Powerful weak.

I can compelety agree with that, I read this just before I went to bed last night and I got laughing so hard my wife came in to see if I was ok.

I read it to her and she was laughing as hard as I was, funniest thing I've read since I failed how to be cocky and funny

On another note: My 300th post.

Did anyone actually read the whol article? I love this paragraph from about 3/4 of the way through the page:
"There's nothing inherently wrong with the pancakes other than their rather dubious choice in company. I've really got nothing at all to say about them. I like my paragraphs to at least look impressive on the skim-through, so I'd really hate to have to end this one so soon. My hope is that you're not really reading the article, moreover just scanning through while looking at the pictures and judging how good the article must be based on the general length of the paragraphs you skip. If that's the case, it affords me the chance to type totally off-topic, random words just for the sake of making this bitch seem lengthy. I mean, goldfish lamp wallpaper skeleton in my Bavarian Star or what? Flowers mirror computer Smurfs every time Moses flies playing cards in or around Paris. Oh, now to make a paragraph-ending sentence that makes the rest appear like it was consequential. That bacon was really greasy!"
