Have you seen the new ad for Wendy's Baconator (830 calories, 51g fat, 190 mg cholesterol, 1760 mg sodium)? I can't find the video online, but essentially this guy turns down a bite of salad from his fellow female diner, proclaiming himself a "meatetarian." When she looks at him in disbelief, he explains that he only eats beef and bacon. He says something about it being a tough diet, and that one really has to commit. While I dislike Wendy's not-so-subtle implication that real men eat meat (leave the salad-nibbling to the chicks, right?), I can't believe they are celebrating the combination of beef and bacon. Have fun when the coronary hits, you jackass.
