A Meal To Die For

well, this babys' got "back" and i like the stretchy jeans, so I don't feel like I am getting my guts squished out when I eat more than I should.

 

Part of the reason I like the stretchy jeans is to make room for the over indulgence in food!

I have very narrow hips though. I don't know where in my family they came from either! I guess it came from somewhere on my dad's side of the family, because everyone on my mom's side is built more normal. I actually use to be able to wear boys' jeans.

 

dang that german genetics....lol!

 

I'm such a heinz 57 that I don't know which nationality to blame for which traits! I'm mostly Norwegian, but I also have some German, English, Irish, French, Italian, and I think some Dutch too. I'm a MUTT and proud of it!

 

my dna is just a tad bit bigger at the bottom...lol

 

Watched the video. Could not imagine eating the triple or quadruple bypass burgers & lard??!! Man, I guess that is a place to die eating!

 

It's been a while since I last visited, but I must have a word here. Being "skinny" and able to eat all you want is well and great if you're rich. But a high metabolism has its price when you're poor. Food is very costly when packing down 3 pounds per day of a balanced diet is not an option, but a requirement for survival. Otherwise, you just drop because you have no energy. There is no joy in eating, no matter how good it tastes. The only thing I can think about, is how much my bank account depleats after the fact. I'm lucky to keep the lights on with my fixed disability income.

Being medically unqualified to drive a commercial vehicle makes matters worse. Having spoke with a job counselor, I was told that a janitorial contractor would not consider me with my 7 year employment gap, and prior work history. It's a matter of their trust, which would not be possible for me to gain at this time. Maybe, if I am very fortunate, they can talk a local pizza joint into hiring me as a delivery driver and kitchen helper. I find myself having to dig for returnable cans and bottles at the local gas stations so I can buy food, the cheapest I can get. And I have to stretch that.

Maybe some of you carry a little weight, yet you can still pay the house and car payments, where food is just a small fraction of your income. At least you can afford that salad that I can't. Maybe I can get a $1.00 box of Hamburger Helper when it's on sale, as long as the shelves aren't empty after I find enough Coke cans and I don't get ran off while looking for them.

If you don't have to choose between paying the rent or buying groceries this month, be thankful. Avoiding that big, fat, juicy burger and big load of fries is the last of my worries now. I will be lucky to find a new apartment when my lease is up.

I watched this and was so stumped as to what makes these burger so great. I dont have a clue...a good burger for me has cheese, onions, mustard, ketchup, tomatoes, lettuce, some bacon and pickles (extra please). I would have to eat these burgers with a fork and that is no fun.
