Hi Girls and Boys. No article (as such) today as I’m kinda busy, but following my post on the Quad Stack Burger the other day, I received a bunch of feedback via email. I thought I’d just share this little nutritional gem which was sent to me by my friend Janice Hutton from Twist Conditioning in Canada. Here’s an extract from the CBS news story:
It could be the world’s unhealthiest snack. The ultimate in fast-food indulgence is cooked up, not by a restaurant chain, but by a minor-league baseball club, reports CBS News correspondent Cynthia Bowers. Despite having a charming ballpark just outside St. Louis, the Gateway Grizzlies will likely never be renowned for their brand of baseball – one step below Single-A ball. But they’re already famous at the concession stand. Or should that be infamous? It’s sweet like a doughnut, and then you’ve got the hamburger. You’ve read that right. It’s a burger with cheese and bacon, sandwiched between a Krispy Kreme doughnut!
Is it just me or does that photo almost make the Quad Stack Burger look reasonable? They look truly horrible don’t they? If you can top the cheese-bacon-burger-Krispy-Kreme combo, I’d love to hear about it. But then maybe I wouldn’t. Bucket anyone?
See you tomorrow when we will explore ‘Finding Your Life Purpose’.
* Don’t forget you West Aussies, I’m in Perth this Sunday for instalment one of my Renovate Your Life Tour. I look forward to meeting those of you who can get along.

Hi Craig,
OMG!!!!!!! That is even more disgusting than the quad burger. I actually came on your site to check the comments from yesterday and was also just about to have dinner….may pass on that now, feeling a bit off. How the hell do people come up with these combinations. Oh well to each their own I guess.
Hey I have also signed up for RYL.
Have an awesome day…of good eating!!!
Hugs Craig,
Michelle
I feel sick now. Who thinks of these things????
P.S. I thought the quad stacker looked kind of good until your post the other day. You totally put me off!!! I think that’s a good thing.
Enjoy Perth Craig – well done for spreading the good word! Enjoyed the ‘Life Work Balance’ blog previous to the foody blog today. Glad to hear you have great personal ‘relationships’ and like what you do….Sounds like me. Try having a swim and getting WET its even more satisfying. Keep Well. JSP and the lovable JPX
I can see the t-shirt now: “I ate a Gateway Grizzly burger. And lived.” Well, you’d live for a little while after your blood sugar sky rocketed along with your cholesterol.
Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Rather than coming up with these ‘heart attack’ combinations they should spend time in the Vegie Patch or organics shop smelling out a happy life
Pass the bucket when your done – ta.
Not sure if you have Mars Bars in Aus, if not they’re like Snickers bars, but without the nuts and more caramel.
In the 80′s there was a craze started in Scotland to dip them in batter and deep fry them. Never tried one and I’m sure I never will, but I understand lots of drunken Scots were asking for them in their local Chippies after a nights heavy drinking. That’ll keep the hangover at bay
Hi, Craig
Please…you don’t need to apologise every day you don’t produce article, Craig. We all understand that you are busy. People can’t be angry at you, because you create value and share it for free. We haven’t priviliges be dissatisfy.
People eat crap so they bodies become crappy one. Hate to say that one…
Best luck,
Saulius
Oh yuck, I’m definitely not hungry for breakfast now! Eeeew …

The new treat at the Minnesota State Fair (US) this year was chocolate dipped bacon on a stick. I stayed home out of principle, ate black beans and avacado.
You mean that doesn’t look appealing to you Michelle?
Weird
See you at RYL.

Nice to hear from you JSP – give your boy a man hug from me. He pretends he’s not into them but he is.
Of course.

Hi Anne-Marie – it would have to be a big shirt! ( )
I’m hearin’ ya Sal
Hi Tim – yeah we have them. They do deep fry them here but not sure about the battered version…
How’s that Personal Development career going?
Cheers..
Cheers Saulius…
Good morning CH
At first I wondered what the ?>??
Then I thought bagel bacon and cheese-yuck then it got worse!
Im off the the Royal Adelaide Show today, famous for Dagwood Dogs-battered deep fried fat hot dogs on a stick, dripping in sauce-yuck
See you soon!
TG
I can feel a heart attack coming on.
Last year a cousin of mine from austria came to sydney for a holiday. Someone took her to a KFC. When she got home she vomited. I had to give her anti acids and peppermint tea to settle her stomach. She didn’t want to complain about the food so she ate it even though she didn’t like it. She said it was one of the most greasy and revolting things she has eaten. She wasn’t sick from food poisioning she was sick by how the stuff is cooked and she could feel all that grease dripping through her body. That’s what made her puke. She can’t believe people here eat this stuff all the time. To her it’s not real food. Yes i used to eat KFC maybe once or twice a year but since her puking episode i’m completely turned off and haven’t had any KFC or any meat that is cooked like that since. When i’m tempted i think about her lying on the couch moaning ‘oh my god the grease the grease’. She’s right, why the hell do we eat this stuff that doesn’t even taste right. Food is supposed to give you energy not make you reach for the alka seltzer.

Hi TG – give the DD a miss… please.

Hi Ange – gotta say, just the smell of KFC makes me feel ill. It even looks horrible in the ads.. now that’s saying something.
Cheers..
Hi Anon -
“chocolate dipped bacon on a stick”
Staying home was a great idea!
Cheers…
It LOOKS disgusting and I just don’t see the point: why would anybody EAT that? It must taste disgusting. I mean donut + cheese and bacon is – NO! You wouldn’t let your dog have one of those.
Confession time – have had the deep fried mars bar – served in Chinese Resteraunt, with ice cream – think I said no to chocolate topping – wouldn’t want to over-do it!!
Some things you do once – some things like the Quad Burger and Krispy Creme just shouldn’t be done!!
SM
That combination must have been invented by some pregnant woman with freaky cravings or something haha eww gross!
OMG! That is something I would have truly eaten in my hey day of being a food addict. Then – it would have sounded yummy.
Today – it makes me want to reach for a bucket.
Thanks for assaulting my senses with a warning of what could have been, Craig.

I have to say that the deep fried Mars Bar is lovely if you have about 1/3. I used to live above a chippie in Edinburgh that made them – the batter was like Tempura batter. Of course, you couldn’t eat one a day, but on the occasional day when the sleet was falling down and you were hungover…lovely! LOL!
Will I get hate mail now?
I’m hearing you featherfour..
Nice work SM… and you lived!
You’re welcome Suu ( )
Hi damnyourbandwagon
No hate mail… too funny.
