The Fattiest Foods in America
(summarized)
TRANS FATTIEST BREAKFAST PASTRY
Cinnabon Classic Roll
5 g trans fat
813 calories
32 g fat
Eat these too often and you might have to be rolled out of the store. Not only do they serve a whopping 813 calories, but they’ll also set you back with a few days' worth of trans fats.
Eat This Instead:
Cinnabon Minibon Delight
300 calories
8 g fat (2 g trans fat)
This is the healthiest option on their menu, and it still has one day’s worth of trans fats. Offset your indulgence and help protect your ticker with these 10 foods that are great for your heart.
TRANS FATTIEST BISCUIT
Bob Evans Country Biscuit Breakfast
6 g trans fat
659 calories
45 grams fat
Beware of biscuits. Like deep-fried menu items, they should set off a trans fat alarm in your head. The lowliest lard keeps biscuits soft and tender. Of course, the fact that Bob’s trans fatty biscuit is drowned in gravy and cheese doesn’t help, either.
Eat this Instead:
Bowl of oatmeal and French Toast a la carte (1 slice)
303 calories
5 g fat (0 g trans fat)
The oatmeal will fill you up, so you won’t overindulge after the slice of toast. For 15 other tips for losing weight fast without sacrificing your favorite foods (or ever dieting again), learn these secret restaurant swaps!
TRANS FATTIEST FRENCH FRIES
Jack in the Box's large Natural Cut Fries
10 g trans fat
300 calories
33 g fat
Although most fast food restaurants have transitioned to trans-fat-free fryers, Jack in the Box hasn’t. Their large servings of natural cut fries and curly fries both pack more than 5 days' worth of dangerous fats. In fact, most of the items on their menu are riddled with more than a day’s serving of trans fats.
Eat this instead:
Jack in the Box Egg Roll (1)
130 calories
6 g fat (1 g trans fat)
The fruit cup and one egg roll are the only sides that do not have 2 or more grams of trans fats. If the fruit cup isn’t for you, limit yourself to one egg roll.
TRANS FATTIEST CHICKEN TENDERS
Dairy Queen Wild Buffalo Chicken Strip Basket (4 pieces)
11 g trans fat
870 calories
96 g fat
The Queen serves up another example of deep-fried danger. The nearly 100 grams of fat alone should deter you from ordering this basket of trouble. But the 4 strips also deliver more than 3 days' worth of trans fats. DQ stands for disqualified.
Eat this instead:
Grilled Chicken Sandwich
400 calories
16 g fat (0 g trans fat)
TRANS FATTIEST RESTAURANT ENTREE
Bob Evans Slow Roasted Chicken Pot Pie
13 g trans fat
908 calories
60 g fat
Trans fats happily make their home in crusts — like the one that surrounds this pot pie. Bob Evans is one of the worst trans fat offenders: many of their dishes contain two or three days' worth of trans fat. Down this pot pie and you’ll have consumed nearly a week’s trans fat quota.
Eat this instead:
Bob-B-Q Chicken
545 calories
14 g fat (0 g trans fat)
TRANS FATTIEST MILKSHAKE
Dairy Queen Large Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Blizzard
6 g trans fat
1,320 calories
52 grams fat
Treating yourself to ice cream now and then isn’t a problem. But if your frozen treat includes three days worth of trans fat, it’s time pick a new ice-cream parlor. (And make sure you avoid other drinkable disasters that might be on this indispensable 20 Unhealthiest Drinks in America list!)
Eat this instead:
Small Artic Rush Slush
240 Calories
0 g fat (0 g trans fat)
Or try these 8 frozen desserts that won't wreck your waistline.
TRANS FATTIEST PANCAKES
Bob Evans Stacked & Stuffed Caramel Banana Pecan Hotcakes
9 g trans fat
1,543 calories
77 g fat
Don’t be fooled by the bananas and pecans, which can be healthy on their own. But this dish delivers 3 days worth of trans fat, not to mention over half the recommended daily calorie intake.
Eat this instead:
Stuffed French Toast, No Topping
599 calories
20 g fat (0 g trans fats)

Don't forget the Awesome Blossom/Bloomin Onion with 203/134 grams of fat respectively.
203 grams of fat is equal to 67 slices of bacon or a whole cup of fat.

Oh and the "pizza skins" or whatever they are called at Uno's.
A deep dish pizza crust filled with mashed potatos and topped with cheese and bacon.

I don't know Bob Evans either. But I've seen Mimi's Cafes out here. I had breakfast there once, and it was yummy! I would probably eat there again if...

Posted: 10/21/08 at 4:19pmI used to work at a Dairy Queen *sudder* and have refused to eat from there ever since. So I'm safe from the large blizzards and such.

Posted: 10/21/08 at 4:42pmWhat's even grosser about burgers, is where I work. It isn't a chain restaurant, but they have a burger there that is 1 pound with your choice of either ground beef, chicken, and I forget the 3rd as the burger. Then you get a crap load of condoments that I can't remember either, and a pound of french fries. I know they have a contest going if you can eat it in under 35 minutes or so, it's free. However, not too many people can or do. But the record holder ate it in 17 minutes. Then I heard he went across the street to get ice cream. Gross.

I'm sure glad you said "record holder" and not "winner."
And as a former movie theater employee, I'd advise against movie popcorn.

I've heard two different dishes as the most fattening in America.
One was general tso's chicken, and the other was pecan pie.
#24tastiest foods on the planet, you mean!
Posted: 10/21/08 at 4:54pmBut I LOVE pecan pie! Of course, I don't BUY it anywhere....
