archermoo Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore There's nothing unhealthy about an egg on a hamburger patty, depending on the quality of the ingredients. The link between dietary cholesterol and heart disease tends to be over-simplified and exagerated by the media. The most unhealthful thing on the plate is that white bread bun. Of course, someone who doesn't exercise regularly should be having only about 3-4 ounces of beef with that egg. This post brought to you by Grumpy Health Nuts. Fight the good fight! I've mostly given up trying to convince people that their food stereotypes are, well, stereotypes. If it makes them feel better to think of eggs and beef as being bad for you it isn't really any skin of my nose. I generally eat red meat at least once a day. I'll also go through somewhere between 3 and 8 eggs during a week, along with bacon and/or sausage on the weekends. My serum cholesterol is just fine, my BP is good, my heartrate is good, and I feel generally happy and energetic. Granted I'm overweight, but that has more to do with a mismatch of portions vs. exercise than anything else. Quote

Cancer Posted July 29, 2010 Report Posted July 29, 2010 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore Back closer to the main thrust of the thread, I eat regularly at several places which have it on the menu, but I myself will never, ever, order the pork bung. Quote

tkdguy Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore Actually, it's called "pork bun," but since I've never liked the taste of it, "pork bung" sounds just about right. Quote

John Desmarais Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore The chain Red Robin has A burger topped with an egg on their menu. I think is is called a Royal. And a thing of beauty it is, too. Quote

It's a wonder I'm not horribly diabetic. Quote

It's a pumpkin pie inside a spice cake, an apple pie inside a yellow cake, and a cherry pie inside a white cake, the dessert equivalent of the turducken(duck inside a chicken inside a turkey). http://www.charlesphoenix.com/2009/12/cherpumple-monster-pie-cake-new-test-kitchen-video/ Quote
